EverQuest site paid $100,000 for EQ.com
Wednesday, September 28th, 2005
Ever since Afternic posted a sale of $100,000 for the domain EQ.com, I’ve been curious about who ponied up that cash for the domain. The answer is in your browser: EQ.com forwards to IGE.com, a company that facilitates buying and selling of virtual goods from massively multiplayer online game (MMOGs or MMPORGs). EQ stands for EverQuest, one of the most popular MMOGs of all time.
The previous owner was Laserlight Publishing, which marketed a book called The EQ Factor. EQ stood for Entrepreneurial Quotient.
