GoldenState.com, Rightwing.com among top auction sales

SnapNames lands some whales.

Web.com’s domain name auction platforms NameJet and SnapNames combined to sell 97 domains at $2,000 or more last month, totaling $566,000.

SnapNames led the way with the sale of 9j.com for $60,400. But here are the domains that jump out at me:

• GoldenState.com $37,100 – It’s the nickname for California. When most people hear this term they think of the Golden State Warriors basketball team. NameJet.
• Rightwing.com $20,900 – A big political domain that could sell for much more to a conservative publication. I own LeftOfCenter.com and frequently get inquiries on it. Rightwing.com is obviously much bigger. SnapNames.
• Rezy.com $10,500 – If restaurant reservation site Resy.com didn’t pick up this domain, it really missed out. NameJet.
• StreetMaps.com $6,601 – A limited pool of buyers but they have big pockets. NameJet.
• Trendspotting.com – I wish I would have noticed this auction. NameJet.
