The recent months have been very active in the domain market for us.

These are some of the domains we acquired included:

We decided to develop the SustainabilityReport.net domain into a proper website and park the other domains at Namedrive.

I am pretty sure we will purchase more interesting domains over the next few months so if you have a domain in the Sustainability/Green business area and you are looking to sell it please get in touch via our contact forum on the About page.

The big question – What will Sex.com sell for?

Fabian — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 16:41:12 +0000

Some of you might have heard that the domain Sex.com is for sale.

The opening bit will be $1 million so nothing to bad for a start. But the big question is whether it will be a record sale. I am not so sure that it will. After all we are in an economic crisis at the moment which does not help with regards to money being spend in vast amounts on a simple domain name.

Here are some interesting news items on the topic:

Hot Property Sex.com on Auction Block – wired.com

Sex.com ‘to become most expensive domain name in history’ – telegraph.co.uk

Sex.com domain goes up for grabs – money.cnn.com

Place your bids for Sex.com - bizreport.com

So lets see how this bidding war will turn out. Everyone is watching…….

Latest Domain Sales News from Sedo

Fabian — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 08:29:10 +0000

Some interesting domain name sales news this month. These are the most interesting facts for the news item:

“The last quarter has witnessed a 5.5 per cent increase on the number of domains changing hands on the Sedo marketplace, compared to Q2 2009 with a total of 9,928 domains changing hands for more than £14 million.

Despite the introduction of new domain extensions, .com remains the most po¬pular top-level domain accounting for more than 45 per cent of all sales on the Sedo market¬place and approximately 80 per cent of all gTLD sales. The average sales price for a domain name has also increased by 37 per cent from £1,031.17 to £1,412.

The report comes off the back of the Halifax Property Index which has also seen an increase in offline property sales. However, in terms of sales price, the domain sector is growing from strength to strength; while house prices in the UK have increased by 7.1 per cent during the past six months, the average cost of a .com domain name has grown by 14.8 per cent in the same period.”

The .com TLD is King

Fabian — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 15:13:45 +0000

There have been a lot of attempts to knock the .com domain extension from the number one spot in terms of registration numbers but no domain extension it seems like will ever be as popular as the .com. This view is supported by these latest stats below.

These are the latest stats in terms of TLD domain counts:

I believe that this trend will continue. New TLD’s will not make a difference the .com extension will always be the most popular.

What do you think? Any thoughts?
