GGRG's
latest
quarterly Liquid
Market Report, covering domain
sales from this category reported in the second
quarter of 2023, is now out. The report covers
a subset of the overall aftermarket - short
acronym and numeric domains - that, due to
steady demand, tend to have more liquidity
than most other domain categories. These are .com
domains comprised of 2-4 letters, 2-5 numbers
or a combination
of 2-3 characters mixing letters and numbers. After
a spectacular opening quarter of the year,
many were wondering if sales would continue to
boom as they did in 1Q-2023.
2Q also wound up being one of the best quarters
for liquid domains in recent years but even so, in
a perfect illustration of just how strong the
previous quarter was, 2Q |
|
sales
were down 50% from 1Q-2023. Still the almost $22
million in total sales (dwarfed by the eye
popping $43 million posted in the opening
quarter) was quite respectable.
Q2-2023
was another excellent quarter for two-letter .com
domains, which reached $11.5 million in sales
at GGRG's data partner, Escrow.com,
giving that group the highest sales volume. The 5th
percentile values (a representation of a reasonable
category price floor in any given time
period) for the most liquid categories (four
letter, five number and three character
domains) stayed stable or showed encouraging
increases that GGRG Founder Giuseppe Graziano
said attested to the solidity of liquid domains over
time.
