The web address that currently directs visitors to Rogers’ official tourism website is listed for sale by a domain reseller. VisitRogers.com, the URL used by the city of Rogers to promote tourism, events and local attractions, appeared this week on HugeDomains, a domain marketplace operating since 2005. The listing offers the domain for a single payment of $3,295 or a financing plan of $137.29 per month over 24 months, totaling $3,295.08 with zero percent interest. The listing includes a 30-day money-back guarantee and promises immediate ownership transfer. A phone number, 1-303-893-0552, is provided for prospective buyers. It remains unclear whether the city of Rogers or its tourism organization, Visit Rogers, is aware the domain is being offered for sale. The tourism website has operated for years as the primary digital gateway for visitors researching attractions, restaurants and events in Rogers. The site typically features information about Pinnacle Hills, the Railyard entertainment district, Lake Leatherwood and other local destinations. HugeDomains, based in Colorado, specializes in selling premium domain names. The company has operated since 2005 and markets itself as having helped “thousands of people get the perfect domain name.” Customer reviews posted on the listing include positive testimonials about purchasing domains through the platform. This situation raises questions about domain ownership and civic digital infrastructure. Municipal governments and tourism organizations typically maintain control of their primary web addresses to ensure continuity of service and brand consistency. When such domains become available for purchase through third-party resellers, it can create uncertainty about the organization’s digital presence. The domain listing does not indicate who currently controls VisitRogers.com or whether the listing represents an attempt to sell a domain the city may want to retain. Further details about the ownership status and the city of Rogers’ intentions regarding the domain were not immediately available.
