Recent sales at Sedo show that you should pay attention as deals abound.
If you haven’t been watching domain auctions lately, you might be missing out on some great values.
Consider these Sedo/GreatDomains sales completed over the past week: Fifties.com for $5,099 and
BananaSplit.com $3,100. Now these aren’t the world’s greatest domain names, but I could see them selling for 2 or 3 times as much just a year ago. And frankly, I could see them selling for ... read more ...

Cognac.com: A Model for Good Domain Name Marketing -
Seller uses online, offline marketing to sell domain name.
Cognac.com sold for $88,000 in last month’s GreatDomains auction. But the story isn’t the sale price — it’s the way the seller marketed the domain name.
First, he put up a sales page at Cognac.com that promoted the sale. In part it read “Cognac.com is going up for auction starting May 22nd 2008 at Greatdomains.com. This is a very important auction for the Cognac industry as Cognac sales are on ... read more ...
