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 ccTLDs had a solid outing this
week with seven five-figure sales, including a pair that rank
among the year's five biggest
sales to date (2nd chart on that page). We showed
you all of the five-figure sales in the all extension section at the top
of this report, so the biggest country code sale you haven't seen
yet is #8 DLR.nl at $8,970 via BliXem
Internet. That was one of two Dutch ccTLDs that BliXem
placed on our new Country Code Top 20 Chart - the other being #13 AmsterdamEscort.nl
at $7,314.
Sedo, as they always do, dominated this leader
board, sweeping 16 of 20 positions including #9 Deka.cn
(Chinese ccTLD) at $8,700. NoktaDomains rounded out the top
ten with #10 MultiCarInsurance.co.uk at $8,500. Sedo
then kicked off the second half of the elite list with #11 BSB.in
(representing India) at $7,750.

If there are country code extensions in our report
that you are not familiar with, you can look up the nation each
extension goes with here.
Non .com gTLDs (.biz, .info, .mobi, .net, .org, .asia, .pro & .tel)
The Non .Com gTLDs had a weak week with
no domains reaching the five-figure level. That left the door open
for EHN.org to lead our new weekly Non .Com gTLD Top 20 Chart
with a $9,888 sale at Sedo. Though the category as a whole
had a feeble outing, it was a good week for the .orgs who
swept the top three spots, seven of the top ten and eight places overall -
more than any other extension. Qwerty.org ($7,200) and SmartGrid.org
($7,000) rounded out the trio at the top.
The .nets were next with seven charted domains,
led by #5 MyDrive.net at $4,830 via Sedo. The .infos
weren't far behind, taking four places on the leader board. That
extension was led by #12 Divorcio.info at $2,967. That
left just one opening that was claimed by #4 Restaurant.biz,
a domain sold at Sedo for $5,500.

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 Wednesday 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.
