A look back at last week’s top sales on Sedo and SnapNames.
Domain Name Wire will now publish newsworthy information about sales from SnapNames in addition to its coverage of Sedo sales.
But before discussing expired domain sales, there is a big .com sale to report from Sedo: Forums.com has sold for $399,990. The seller was DNForum owner and GoDaddy VP Adam Dicker.

emedstoday.com 1050
iccidirect.com 1050
medivet.com 1000
Overall, I think FerrisWheel.com and SubprimeLoan.com look like the winners. It may seem hard to monetize FerrisWheel.com, but it could be used as a “branded” domain for a company.
In recent SnapNames auctions I’ve picked up WeeklyPlanner.com, MonthlyPlanner.com, and CelebrityProfile.com. I also picked up eCents.com, which has tons of potential, and YouthSummerCamp.com. I purchased SeattleHealthcare.com through the platform from a SnapNames seller (non-expired) too.
Please let me know if you find this sales information useful and if you have any suggestions.
Congrats on picking up the snapnames and sedo sales feed. Ron Jackson should open up his site to comments to make his great reporting more interactive and sticky.
If you can sort the sales by domain extension, idustry, price or some other criteria, the results would be more readable.
Looking forward to this new content.
Good luck.
@ Rob – I leave the heavy lifting in that category to Ron and sites like NameBio.
…well I suppoooosssseee I like your printing these sales (though have been readily available elsewhere/s for some time)…’cept, of course, that it will make it even harder to keep up with all the great info you’ve been pumping out these some months… 🙂
Rob–I’m actually glad Ron doesn’t “do” comments. Enough junk comments out here in domain land to wade through to find the gems already.
I’ve been publishing Sedo sales for a while, when it makes sense (such as a big sale). I usually try to add some commentary on ongoing Sedo auctions in the same post but didn’t get a chance this time.
I agree with separating the domain name sales into categories. Although it is helpful to have them organized for highest $$ to the lowest, I would like to see also segmented by other domain names. In particular I see in the above list some .info, cctlds with .es and .fr. I think some of these more niche domains will be a growing trend.
I appreciate this, thanks for the consistent domain news updates. If you could include sales from snapnames in the future, I think thatd be fantastic
