Radix's
most popular premium extensions,
both in terms of the number sold and
the dollar amount generated, were .online
and .tech. .Online generated
$157,000 of the new revenue in
2H-2017 with .tech close to
the same amount at $153,000.
One other Radix TLD, .fun,
generated six figures with $127,000
in premium sales.
The
report also listed the company's top
individual premium domain sales for
2H-2017. A trio of sales made
through GoDaddy topped the
list with Mint.tech, Wit.tech
and Mirror.fun selling for $12,999
apiece. One other domain reached
five figures - Track.tech -
at $10,320. Those are just a
few highlights from the full report
