Sales keep coming in for .xxx in its third year.
.XXX continues to sell premium domain names for prices that new TLD operators would love to obtain.
The company recently sold three more .xxx domain names, including extreme.xxx, for a total of over $150,000.
.XXX registry ICM Registry also announced a partnership with ModelCentro for Models.xxx. ModelCentro runs a hosted system for fan sites. Verified models using the ModelCentro platform are able to register one .XXX domain free of charge.
This is a smart way for the registry to get domain names into the hands of people that will use and promote them. New TLD registries should do similar partnerships. Every domain that gets put to use is an advertisement for the top level domain.

The adult industy did not want an XXX domain before and they don’t want it now.
Andrew Allemann says
Clearly. Which is why they’re paying millions of dollars for premium domain names.
