New report contains interesting aftermarket domain name data

2026 Global Domain Report discloses share of Sedo sales by transaction type, TLD, and more.

InterNetX and Sedo released the Global Domain Report 2026 today.

The 100-page report includes a lot of interesting data about the primary and secondary domain name markets. I tend to focus on the aftermarket section, which includes data from Sedo.

Here’s some interesting data from the report:

• 76% of Sedo’s sales in 2026 were buy now transactions. Negotiated make offer sales made up only 8% of transactions, with the rest being auctions, brokerage, and external agreements that used Sedo to complete transactions.
• 56% of sales were through SedoMLS partners, such as domain registrars that syndicate Sedo’s domain inventory.
• 66% of sales were .com, followed by Germany’s .de with 11%. (Sedo is based in Germany.) .Net and .org each accounted for 3%, although Sedo noted that the top end of the .net market was lower last year. .Ai accounted for 2%. Sedo sold domains in a whopping 383 different TLDs.
• Sedo’s median price overall was $818. .Com had a $595 median price.

The report has a lot of great data, and you can download it here.

IONOS is in the process of selling Sedo, and I hope that InterNetX and Sedo can collaborate on this report in the future, even if they are part of different companies.
