Country Codes

With two of the week's three biggest sales the country codes had plenty to celebrate this week including two more sales in the five-figure range. All of those were noted in the all extension section above. The biggest sales in this category that you haven't seen yet are three domains tied for #5 on this week's Country Code Top 20 Sales Chart. Those are Belleza.es, Heimscheisser.de and Home24.ru at $6,300 each. 

Sedo had a big week sweeping 19 of the 20 chart entries. The only one that eluded their grasp was #14 PPIRefunds.co.uk, a name that was sold in a private transaction for $4,190. 

Germany's  .de led the TLD race with seven chart entries followed by Great Britain's .co.uk with four.  The only other extension with multiple chart entries was France's .fr with two. The remaining seven positions were divided between seven different extensions. 

Here is how the ccTLD leaders stacked up for the week ending Sunday, June 10:

There were dozens of additional four-figure ccTLD sales off the chart with Sedo again accounting for the lion's share of those with a supplemental list led by HDO.se ($2,993), Verbrauchertelefon.de ($2,948) and 777.me ($2,900). 

Sedo had 48 more four-figure ccTLD sales ranging from $1,000 to $2,835 that are listed in the table below:

NetFleet.com.au sold a quartet of Australian ccTLDs; HomeBusiness.com.au ($2,805), OurDeals.com.au ($2,127), ES.com.au ($1,718) and OnlineChemist.com.au ($1,652). 

Elsewhere YummyNames and GoDaddyAuctions teamed up to sell Minder.co for $2,196.

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

One of the year's ten biggest non .com gTLD sales and two more in the five figure range set the pace in this category. You saw those in the all extension section earlier. The #4 domain on our new Non .Com Top 20 Sales Chart, Beleggen.info at $5,670, is the top sale sale from this group that you had not seen yet. LiveArena.net rounded out the first five at $3,500 with Sedo ringing up all of those top five sales. 

The AfternicDLS swept the next three spots with a group led by #6 PleaseHelp.org at $3,000. The .orgs wound up winning the extension race as well, taking nine spots on the elite list, two more than the .nets. .Info claimed three spots with one going to .pro.
