Hit $99 million at Escrow.com in Q3 — Domain sales

Escrow.com sees solid growth in Q3.

Escrow.com released its Q3 Domain Investment Index (pdf) this stretch, reporting that it handled $99 million of domain name transactions during the quarter.

Domain transaction dollar value was up 16% over the same quarter of 2023 and 9% quarter-over-quarter.

Sales of domains ending in the .ai top level domain name rebounded to $2.5 million from $1.8 million in Q2. That’s almost as high as the record $2.6 million transacted in the first quarter of 2024.

Growth came mainly from the United States, growing from $55 million in Q2 to $77 million in Q3. Transactions from the United Kingdom also grew from $6.6 million to $11 million. Since the total gain was $8 million, sales in other areas must have dropped significantly.

The median sale price of domains without content held steady at $5,000.
