NameFind let’s OKR.org expire – Oversight or a smart play?

December 19, 2020 by Raymond Hackney

OKR.org

OKR.org was left to expire and closed at $20,850. The interesting thing here is who owned it. GoDaddy’s own Namefind.

Before NameFind the domain name was owned by Future Media Architects.

NameFind shows up in the whois history according to DomainIQ in 2016

Will GoDaddy collect the money and allow the new buyer to own it, I mean they benefit either way. This could be a new strategy, many believe expired auctions go for a lot more due to the bidding frenzy.

This is the highest price for a LLL.org since 2018. So maybe this was a brilliant plan by GoDaddy.

It’s good to be GoDaddy, they got it covered from all sides.

    Raymond, Thank you for sharing this one!. Hard to say its an accidental expiry or a voluntary one..

    I agree to your point of expired domain auctions often perceived to be the cost effective way to acquire but a lot of times winning bidder end-up paying higher than the fair market price.
