Go Daddy Dominates Quiet Weekly Sales Chart

Domain Name Journal logoGo Daddy Auctions dominated the Domain Name Journal sales chart for the week to 1 July with ten of the top 21 sales, including taking out the top sale of the week with britt.com, which sold for $64,980.

In a somewhat unusual week, Sedo was responsible for only four of the 21 sales, the first coming in at 12th place, with a tie for 20th place.

While the week was unusual in some ways, it does reflect what has been a more competitive market for sales in 2012. Sedo were also outdone by DomainNameSales who were responsible, either solely or in conjunction with DomainAdvisors, for seven sales.

What doesn’t change is .COM’s dominance in the chart, taking out 18 of the top 21 positions. The others were two .NET sales and one .TO.

Summer Approaches And Domain Sales Heat Up

Domain Name Journal logoA trio of previously unreported six-figure sales topped Domain Name Journal’s sales chart for the week to 6 May. Number one was 60.com, selling for $310,000 through KuwaitNet.net, making it the third largest sale to date in 2012.

Second was LEO.com, selling for $120,000 through Toby Clements Newsletter while Bosnia.com was the third six-figure sale, selling for $100,000 through DomainAdvisors.

The first sale Sedo had a hand in was OnlineFreeGames.com, selling for $90,000 through DomainNameSales and Sedo.

Sedo kept its hold on the top 20 with the most sales, but only just, showing there is increasing competition among domain name aftermarket companies in 2012. Sedo was responsible for five sales, including the aforementioned sale in conjunction with DomainNameSales.

AfternicDLS was responsible for four sales, while DomainAdvisors and DomainNameSales also had a hand in four sales.

But the dominance of .COM still shines through with 18 of the top 20 sales with only wrapp.de and lampa.pl being the only non-.COM sales.
