A
Trio of $75,000 Sales Fill the Top Spots on
This Week's Domain Sales Chart
|
|
After
beginning the new year with a bang (Rick Schwartz's
$850,000 sale of GoBet.com two weeks ago),
things settled back into the solid five-figure range
over the past fortnight. Our latest all extension
Top 20 Sales Chart is led by a trip of names that all hit the
$75,000 or better mark. Sedo's
£55,000 ($75,350) sale of FaceYoga.com is king
of the hill, followed by a pair of names that hit the 75K mark
right on the button - Speechify.com, a domain that Tony
Lam sold via the Uniregistry
Market, and ccTLD Dabble.com.au in a sale
that Vortel Advanced Systems made though GoDaddy's
brokerage service. Two more Sedo sales round out the first
five - HolyGround.com at $60,000 and another
ccTLD, Flow.me, at €48,000 ($58,080).

.Coms swept 15 of the 20 chart
entries, the non.com gTLDs claimed three places and the country
code domains took the two spots in the top five I just
mentioned. That non .com gTLD trio was comprised of a pair or .orgs
and a new gTLD. Sedo accounted for all three sales, booking €30,000
($36,300) for EditPad.org, $25,000 for #14 (tie) NMF.org
and €15,000 ($18,150) for Möbel.shop (an IDN). Everything
else went to the .coms, including Shane Kinsch's $50,000 sale
of #6 Litebit.com. NameJet
played the biggest role in the .com dominance, putting seven of them
on the honor roll with #9 Huodong.com leading their list at $35,001.
With their mix of all TLDs, Sedo still wound up with the most chart
entries overall, filling ten places on the leader board.

By the way, since we now have our second
report of the new year in the books, we have just started our 2021
Year-to-Date Sales Charts (the first chart covers all
extensions, the second lists the year's top ccTLD sales and third has
the top Non .com gTLDs). We begin with the top 20 on each chart and
continually add to them as each bi-weekly report comes in. They will
grow until we cap them at 100 entries each. Our final Top
100 for 2020 is now in our Domain
Sales Archive.
Now, here's how
all of the sales leaders stacked up for the two weeks
ending Sunday, January 17, 2020:
