The AfternicDLS
had another solid outing, taking three places on the elite list.
Their roster was led by #7 Vivant.com at $30,000.
Moniker.com was the only other venue with multiple chart entries. They hit the
trifecta, sharing the Migraine.com sale with Sedo and well as
booking #8 V247.com ($25,350) and #11 PersianServers2.com
($17,900) on their own.
That left four openings on the
all-extension leader board that were taken by NameJet.com,
GoDaddy
Auctions, Bido.com
and Optimo.com.
NameJet set the pace for that quartet after getting a $69,100
dividend from their sale of #3 FirstNationalBank.com. The
always powerful .com contingent piled up 14 of the 20 chart
entries.
Here is how all of the sales leaders stacked up for the week ending Sunday,

Keep in mind that these are the highest
value sales that have been reported to us in the
past week. This column is meant to be an educational tool,
not a complete list documenting ALL high
value domain sales. Such a list is impossible to produce
because many sales are kept private at the insistence of
buyers, sellers or both. Our procedure for verifying the
accuracy of domain sales reports is available here.
|
For
the many newcomers entering the domain
industry we also want to point out that the reasons why a domain name sells for a certain price can be varied and are not always clear to those who are unfamiliar with the domain market.
If you do not understand why specific domain names command the
prices they do, you are likely to make unwise domain registrations or purchases.
We highly recommend that you do some basic research before
you buy anything! As a starting point we have
built a sister site specifically for you at NameNewbie.com.

Country Codes
The country codes continue to enjoy a boom that
started a couple of years ago and there is no sign that they are
going to slow down any time soon. As we noted at the top of this
report, this week's €587,500 ($851,875) sale of
Credit.fr is far bigger than any country code sale reported in
2009.
The top three sales in the ccTLD category also made
the all extension leader board you saw above. We also told you about
two other five-figure sales; CasinoItalia.it (Italian
ccTLD) and Home.ch (Switzerland ccTLD) that went for $11,600
each.
The highest sale in this category that you haven't
seen yet is an IDN at #6 on our new Top 20 Country Code
Chart - Müller.eu at $9,570. Sedo handled that sale and
went on to sweep all 20 positions on the leader board!
In the race among extensions, the European
Union's .eu and Germany's .de shared the lead by taking
four places apiece. The United States country code, .us,
was next with three. Three of the four .eu domains on the chart are
IDNs.

country code leaders stacked

Global Contenders (Non .com gTLDs:
.biz, .info, .mobi, .net, .org, .pro & .tel)
A nice 2-letter .org - QE.org - led
the non .com gTLD Global Contenders race this week after
changing hands for $20,000 at Sedo. That was one of four
five-figure GC sales we told you about at the top of this report.
The highest sale you haven't seen in this category yet is #5 NursingScholarships.org
at $5,900 via Sedo. Sedo wound up taking 10 of the 20
positions on our new Global Contenders Top 20 Chart.
This was an exceptionally strong week for the .orgs
which swept the first five positions and took eight places
overall. The .nets still managed to pile up the most chart
entries with nine though. That left three open spots that were taken
by a .pro, a .mobi and a .info. Scoring highest
in that trio was #6 Consulting.pro at $5,075.
Here's how all of the Global Contenders stacked up for the

As always, we welcome all verifiable sales reports from companies,
private sellers or individuals with knowledge of an important sale
made through any channel. To contribute information and help make
this column better, just drop a note to [email protected].
We truly appreciate the industry leading
companies who share their sales information
with us to help everyone in the business get a handle on current
domain values. Richard
Meyer of Domain Sales Center also provides invaluable help
in collecting data for these sales
reports each week.
Every Tuesday night or Wednesday
morning we publish the highest reported domain name
sales for the previous week. On Mondays and Tuesdays our contributors send us
their sales data for the previous 7 days. We then compile that
information and write this article to give
you the most comprehensive sales report in the industry.
Editor's Note: If you wish to review previous Domain
Sales columns, they are available in our Archive.
