POMPANO BEACH, Fla., May 13 (UPI) -- Internet domain names such as GasPrices.com and HotPotato.com are set to be auctioned off by Florida's Moniker Online Services LLC, the company said.

The Pompano Beach, Fla. company announced Tuesday many prime Internet domain names will be up for auction at the T.R.A.F.F.I.C. East conference May 23 in Orlando, Fla.

The release said domain names such as Anger.com, Lemons.com and Ladybug.com will be auctioned alongside more serious choices including InsuranceRates.com and BlueRay.com.

Bidders who show up to the T.R.A.F.F.I.C. East event automatically qualify for the live auction, while others can place bids online or on the phone, the release said.

Moniker said it will be having an extended online auction from May 23-29, making thousands of added domain names available for purchase.
