Sedo and Afternic Note Domain Name Sales

A sales update from the top two domain name marketplaces.

I’m a bit behind since I’ve been a TRAFFIC Miami all week, but I do have some sales to note courtesy of Sedo and Afternic.

Sedo’s top sale was Cursos.com for $150,000. Cursos means “courses” in Spanish. The firm also had some good ccTLD and other sales.

The top five .com sales for the week are:

cursos.com 150000 USD
liveup.com 11500 USD
prova.com 10000 USD
zelte.com 9900 EUR
treatacne.com 8000 USD

Top five ccTLD sales:

rep.ly 15000 GBP
skins.tv 13185 USD
rufnummer.de 9900 EUR
kbr.cn 9000 USD
shipping.eu 8988 EUR

Top five other sales:

onlinekredit.org 26000 EUR
moksha.org 8500 USD
matratze.net 5950 EUR
ihit.net 3500 USD
societes.net 2788 USD

Afternic also noted a selection of sales. I think it’s worth showing a random sample of these sales as examples of the type of brandable or mid-market domains the firm is able to move through its distribution network. This will be more relevant to domainers as Afternic onboards Moniker and eNom to its platform, allowing domainers to more easily sell their domains through the firm. Here are some examples at various price points:

radioplus.com $10,000.00
alcoholrecovery.com $8,000.00
wallstreetdaily.com $7,588.00
ecosim.com $5,788.00
BikerHelmets.com $5,000.00
couponzone.com $4,500.00
sight.org $4,388.00
mysmart.com $4,200.00
killbedbugs.com $4,000.00
wizwin.com $3,588.00
