New section allows geo-related domain names to be sold.
In yet another sign that the geo domain name market is hot, domain name forum DNForum launched a new section called “Geo Domains for Sale” earlier today.
The section is part of the Platinum Forums section, meaning you must purchase a platinum membership in order to post domains for sale. A platinum membership costs $59.95. Gold members can upgrade to platinum for $40.00.
As of now, there are only two listings in the Geo Domains section: one for ScottsdaleAriz.com and a handful of other domains, and one for SanYsidro.net.
Geo Domains come in two flavors: location domains, such as Nashville.com or Brazil.com, and long tail domains such as ChicagoLawyers.com and BaltimoreCars.com. Popular city names sell for millions of dollars, while long tail domains range from a few dollars to tens of thousands of dollars.
The new Geo Domains category joins a dozen other sales categories, such as “Domains with Traffic”, “Short Domains”, and “Offers Wanted”.

I applaud DNForums for providing a geo-domain marketplace for those of us who understand the value of Geo-domains. I look forward to buying and selling in this domain name aftermarket!

Great value added to DNForum.com. We are going to see many things start to evolve around the geo space. Good stuff for all interested in this industry. Local is not going away anytime soon.
