Posted on 18 March 2009

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

So what will $208,065,427 get you? 85 domain names.

I received a lot of interest in a recent article I did about top domain sales of 2008 not developed. Because of the great amount of interest I wanted to do a follow up with all the domain sales I could find over $1,000,000.

Disclaimer: There are several different sources this information is pulled from over the internet, so I can not personally vouch for the complete accuracy of this list. There may be some sales that were reported inaccurately as well as some that might not have been reported at all.

If something is inaccurate or missing please send me a message through the contact page along with your source and I will make any necessary updates.

***Removed the sale of SEO.com which was falsely reported by previous sources for $5,000,000. Fact is that the seller of this domain name is bound by a nondisclosure agreement and not able to comment on the true sale amount.

***Removed the sale of Ad.com. Sale was not completed and legal actions are pending.

interesting. I’d argue the business.com sale should be 2.0M since that’s what the buyer said he paid for it:

But that’s beside the point…

  Thanks Andrew, you are definitely a great source for news. I have updated the sale to reflect the price you have reported.

I heard that the buyer of Business.com paid 2M in cash and the rest in some kind of stock options.

No confirmation–just something I remembered from almost two years ago.

  Ms Domainer – I believe it was $7.5M mostly stock, which ended up being converted to cash for the $2m

Beauty.cc $1 Million…lol, WTF

I’d have guessed it to be a $15K name.
Even in a good market…still no where near 1 million.

  Yeah I think the same, that does not look right!

I believe Property.com was sold by Rick Schwartz last year

for $10 mil.

  Thanks Patrick. I heard the rumors but no confirmed sources have gone on record as saying so. I’m 100% sure it sold for several million but can’t post without a confirmation.
  
  Hey Rick, if your reading this how much did you sell Property.com for

hmmm maybe I could get $195,648,427 for my 73 domains!? Some of these domains are really a good investment while some others I think were just too expensive.

What is special story of Beauty.cc. One would expect more ccTLDs in the list, like audi.tt, fancy.me, but cc?
