Another pointer of a 3 minute .com domain name boom… - Sedo Great Domains mailer shows only three letter .com domain names. DNJournal’s sales charts have been dominated by three letter domain names lately. The domain names are hot, and they’re very liquid. As an owner of a three letter .com, I get up to a half dozen emails on some days asking if it’s for sale. People have resorted to including a price in the subject line (most recently hitting $35,000). Domain marketplaces are trying to capitalize on this as well, and this ensures that DNJournal’s ... read more ...

Moms.com sells for $252,000 in Sedo Auction - Moms.com domain name sells for $252,000 in monthly Great Domains auction.

Bidding for Moms.com jumped from $175,000 to $249,000 when a bidder placed the latter bid, which was the reserve. It looked like the auction was going to close at that price until another bid was placed in (literally) the last minute. Only two bidders participated once the auction hit ... read more ...

My picks for Sedo’s Great Domains auction - Great Domains auction ends Thursday. Here’s what I like. This month’s Great Domains auction at Sedo ends on Thursday. The lineup doesn’t include as many big ticket domains as usual; there’s only one domain with a reserve over $25,000. But that’s OK, there are some good domains worthy of attention. Here are ones that popped out to me: Reconnect.com – With a reserve range $10k-$25k, this would be good only if you have a plan for the domain. I can think ... read more ...

Making Sedo’s Multi-Bid Interface Better - Four ways to improve the Sedo bulk bidding interface. If you missed the conclusion of Sedo’s December Great Domains auction, you missed some great deals. I picked up five good domains at nice prices. Don’t say I didn’t give you a heads up. This was the first time I was bidding on multiple domains that closed at the same time on Sedo, so it was my first experience with Sedo’s “bulk” bidding system. It worked fine, but there are several ways it can be ... read more ...

Fly.com Appreciates 20% in 10 Years - Sale of $1.8 million not that great of a return. The big domain name news today is the sale of Fly.com for $1.8 million to Travelzoo (NASDAQ: TZOO). That’s a big number, especially in today’s economy. But it’s not a great return for the seller. It was almost 10 years ago that the domain name reportedly changed hands for $1.5 million. So in about 10 years the domain name appreciated less than 2% per year. Of course, 10 years ago the dot.com bubble was at ... read more ...

FindaDate.com Finds a Buyer during $31,000 - Web site tops Great Domains auction. The web site FindaDate.com has sold for $31,000 in Sedo’s Great Domains domain name auction that ended earlier today. Here are other tentative sales results that I was able to collect: Starship.com – $22,500 – this seems like a lot of money for this domain. But it does have a Compete.com rank inside 500,000 as a parked domain. It currently shows ads for Star Wars items, but earlier this decade it was used by an education ... read more ...
