Country Codes

In another standout performance, the ccTLDs  piled up seven five-figure sales this week, led by OnlineCasinos.de at $85,150 via Sedo. We showed you all seven in the all extension section above so the highest country code sale you haven't see yet is #8 on our latest weekly Country Code Top 20 Sales Chart. That is Gift.me, a domain that changed hands at Sedo for $9,000.

.ME (Montenegro's country code) wound up with nine of the 20 chart entries, led by #2 Hotel.me at $25,000 and four others in the first ten including #9 Blackjack.me ($7,400) and #10 CreditCard.me ($7,200). Sedo rang up all of those .me sales and went on to sweep 16 of the 20 chart entries. 

Three other TLDs had multiple chart entries. Germany's .de and Great Britain's .co.uk had three each and Colombia's .co two. The other countries represented on this week's leader board were South Africa (.co.za), the European Union's nations (.eu) and Belgium (.be) with one spot each.

Here is how the ccTLD leaders stacked up for the week ending Sunday, March 4:

There were dozens of additional four-figure ccTLD sales off the chart led by WeDo.co.uk, sold for $4,700 at DomainNameSales.com. 

Sedo, as they always do, rang up the majority of these though. Their roster included Polar-Reisen.de, Werkladen.de and WomensSecret.cn at $4,585 each and AddictionTreatment.us at $4,000. 

Sedo had 64 more four-figure ccTLD sales ranging from $1,000 to $3,930 that are listed in the table below:

Non .com gTLDs (.biz, .info, .mobi, .net, .org, .asia, .pro & .tel)

Though the non .com gTLDs had no names on the all extension Top 20 Chart this week four five-figure sales were reported in this category, led by Lab.org at $12,500 via Sedo. Those four fill the top slots on our new Non .com gTLD Top 20 Chart, with Emprego.net rounding out the first five at $8,500 through the AfternicDLS.  

Sedo piled up 11 of the 20 chart entries with a list that included #8 Open.info at $5,655. The AfternicDLS filled five slots including #7 Broadlink.net at $5,760.

The .nets wound up easily winning the extension race with 11 charted domains compared to 5 for the runner-up .orgs. Two places went to .info while .pro and .biz each took one.
