In recent weeks things have been heating up for Sedo in the domain name aftermarket with their usual dominance of the Domain Name Journal weekly report being lessened. However they still managed to be responsible for the top reported sale in the week to 1 April, with phonemarket.com selling for a very tidy $180,000.
Sedo only managed five of the top 20 sales, eclipsed by Go Daddy Auctions with eight sales, as well as another in conjunction with AfternicDLS.
Second biggest sale for the week was afw.com ($125,000 through Go Daddy Auctions) while FootFetish.xxx was third, selling for $89,000, a sale direct through ICM Registry.
Overall .COM domains accounted for 14 of the top sales, but only five of the top ten. There were also five ccTLD sales as well as the .XXX sale.
