Another Example of The Random Nature of Domain Sales
There was a sale on the Sedo sales report that caught my eye this week, it was not a blockbuster sale by any means. I always look at the other tld sales section and focus on the random .net and .org sales. Every domain investor owns several similar names that are basically reg fee names […]

The domain 7.cn has apparently sold for approximately 15 million Yuan, the news reported on Ename.cn 易名中国（eName.cn）5月30日讯，单数字域名数量奇缺，是当之无愧硬通货类型。近日小编得到消息，投资人陈东红已售出单数字域名7.cn，买家为深圳“爱思助手”创始人徐红兵。 Kassey Lee from Coreile.com translated the Ename news, 7.cn sold for about 15m CNY. 7 rhymes with 奇 (wonder), 棋 (chess) , 妻 (wife), and 趣 (fun).

Continue ReadingA look at some BrandBucket type sales on Sedo this week
This week was a good example of why you can’t put all your brandable eggs in one basket. While the brandable boutiques specialize in selling brandable names you can be found on Sedo as well. I would say the advantages of Sedo are 10% commission if you want to use their nameservers and list as […]

This week on Sedo the domain name InformationOfThings.com sold for $4,500. This domain was hand registered in October of 2015 and sold on May 18, 2016. Pretty crazy ROI on that one.

In 1996, when I was launching my first online businesses, I saw the Internet as a great vehicle for offering goods and services to people who would not have easy access to them otherwise. My very first online business offered Drakes Cakes to customers across the country. Drakes Cakes (Devil Dogs, Yankee Doodles, Ring Dings and more) are […]
Continue ReadingAre High Annualized Domain Name Renewal Fees a Recipe for Failure?
Most of us are familiar with the concept of registering a domain name for around $10.00 USD and then renewing said name for around $10.00 per year. Some of us are attuned to the concept of buying a domain name in the aftermarket for a greater sum and then renewing that domain name for around […]
