Sedo CEO discusses domain name parking, selling and more.
Domain name owners park nearly 5 million domain names and list 18 million + domains on Sedo. This week Sedo CEO Tobias Flaitz comes on the show to talk about the past, present and future of the domain name business and Sedo. We discuss the challenges of parking (and how Sedo has turned it around), changes and trends in domain name sales and the impact new top level domains are having on the business. Tobias also discusses a startling stat about .com sales at Sedo.

Chris says
Why does Sedo auction off domains that they own and call it a premium handpicked auction when the domains are absolute junk?
domainbranche says
that is so true
KC says
Thanks for the informative interview. A question for Tobias: You said one third of the traffic comes from mobile devices. Do you know how they arrive at the sites? Is it direct traffic where visitors literally type a domain name on their mobile device? Voice input? Search engines? Or something else?
Patricia Kaehler says
KC – those are EXCELLENT Questions…
