NEW YORK - Internet-based photo and greeting cards company Shutterfly is reportedly looking to acquire Eastman Kodak's online photo services business for $23.8 million.

Kodak has entered bankruptcy protection, and the agreement between the two parties characterizes Shutterfly's offer as the initial "stalking horse" bid for an auction process to be conducted through the bankruptcy court.

Shutterfly shares were jumping 15.5% to $31.07 in premarket trading Friday.

Zynga , the online game developer, announced Thursday a new online platform to play its titles, a move that will allow users to play games on its site and reduce its dependence on Facebook.

"In addition to serving up popular Zynga games, Zynga.com will let players discover and play social games created by third party game developers," the company said in a press release. "These Platform partners will be able to reach new audiences and make their games even more social."

Shares were adding 3.5% to $14.99.

Retailer Overstock.com is expected by analysts to post quarterly earnings of 45 cents a share. Shares were gaining 1.7% to $7.

Big Lots , the discount retailer, reported fourth-quarter net income of $114.7 million, or $1.75 a share, on net sales of $1.67 billion. Analysts expected earnings of $1.73 a share on sales of $1.66 billion.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the company estimated adjusted income in the range of 75 cents to 81 cents a share, a 7% to 16% increase from the same time a year earlier.

Shares were up 0.3% to $44.60.

MemeBridge, a leading web publishing company, is now offering portions of its portfolio of real-estate related domains for sale.

Denver, CO (PRWEB) March 02, 2012

The majority of these real-estate domains are "exact match domains." Exact match domains are exceptionally valuable because they receive a significant ranking bonus from the major search engines, including Google, Bing, and Yahoo. These bonuses lead to improved search engine rankings, which lead to more traffic, which leads to greater revenue.

As an example, the domain IncomeBasedApartments.org will be much easier to rank for the search phrase "income based apartments" than a domain called income-based-apartments.com.

The exact match domain bonus applies only to top level domains with the com, net, and org extensions. For example, the domain Section8HousesForRent.org will be much easier to rank for the search phrase "Section 8 Houses for Rent" than the domain Section8HousesForRent.biz.

This exact match bonus gives the owner of the domains an unfair advantage in the search engine rankings and makes these domains extremely valuable for receiving traffic from the major search engines. Investing in an exact match domain can pay for itself many times over by reducing the amounts that much be spent on search engine marketing.

These domains do not have set prices. Interested parties should contact MemeBridge with serious offers.
