Our goal is to have O.BIZ help small to medium-size businesses save money by leveraging the purchasing power of Overstock.com," said Overstock.com Chairman and CEO Patrick Byrne. Single-character domain names are very rare; there are only five such domain names worldwide. Domain names using .BIZ are especially appealing to companies that sell products or services to other businesses.
