FranchisesForSale.com sells for $26,000

FranchisesForSale.com sold for $26,000 at Afternic.

Although it’s a long domain, the term “Franchise for Sale” bids at $2.57 on Overture. A long but common phrase can command a big check. Let’s not forget regarding ForSaleByOwner.com, which sold for $835,000 back in the heyday.

Afternic had some other nice sales the prior week. Heart-One.com sold for $8,800, OUAM.com sold for $5,450, and Surfland.com sold for $3,000. The Gators.com sale I noted previously has been completed and the domain transferred.

If you’re looking to buy you might want to check out a few domains in closing at Afternic: FilmPortal.com $150, Casino.pn $95 (country code domain for Pitcairn Islands).

And check this one out: Franchises4Sale.com is selling for only $499! If the fresh owner of FranchiseForSale.com does any sort of radio or TV advertising you can expect Franchises4Sale.com to get some traffic.
