SEDO Weekly Sales List Includes Single Word .Net Domain “Fashion.net” for $20,000

November 15, 2022 By John Colascione Leave a Comment

Sedo

WEST PALM BEACH, FL – According to the latest SEDO.com weekly domain sales report, a single word .net domain sold for $20,000.00. The domain name is Fashion.net which has a great deal of commercial use which makes it valuable in my opinion and appears to have been undersold or sold at wholesale. The domain names Showcase.org and Explain.org were also among single word alternatives on the list. Each week, SEDO releases a list of domain names which have been sold including … [Read more...]

Domainer? Here’s One “Hyphenated” Domain Success Story You Will Enjoy

June 24, 2020 By John Colascione Leave a Comment

PALM BEACH, FL – Way – way back in 2008, I suggested one of my clients purchase the domain name, NNN-Properties.com. I usually steer clear of hyphenated domain names because they clearly do not pass the radio test. Who wants to tell someone to visit their website address with a dash in it? Probably no one, and especially not me. But in this circumstance, I figured the domain name would likely rank well for the term “NNN Properties” which are commercial investment … [Read more...]

How .COM Domain Names Have Changed Value Over Time; Commercial Interest Term

January 15, 2018 By John Colascione 9 Comments

NEW YORK, NY - There is only one thing better than speculation; and that's fact. Wouldn't you agree? Let’s look at some historical sales data on .com domain names which have “sold at least twice” and include the words “real estate”, a good commercial interest term. (Data gathered from a list of every .com domain name on record at NameBio which sold more than once in the past 10 years). Thanks to NameBio, we can see that out of 39 transactions, 20 of them (51%) declined … [Read more...]

The “Super Secret” to Appraising Your .com Domain Name for 2018 and Beyond

January 13, 2018 By John Colascione 5 Comments

NEW YORK, NY - There have been many changes over the last five years when it comes to Internet domain names. I will say that this pertains to the average domain (web address), not so much a super-premium domain name, but your average .com two or three word domain name. For the most part, pricing has gone down, for whatever reason. Some changes you may have noticed such as: The EMD Penalty: Where Google will not simply rank the domain at the top of search for its exact … [Read more...]

Verisign Still Pushing Hard on .Net Domains; Sales Remain Active; New IDN for Korea

February 13, 2017 By John Colascione 2 Comments

NEW YORK, NY - While at NamesCon, I noticed a television commercial for the .net domain extension pushing it as a leading “trusted extension” and touting its long standing history in the domain space; the .net domain name was created on the same day as the .com in January 1985. (I’m pretty sure the video was part of Verisign’s “Uncommonly Timeless” collection of .net marketing pieces - it looked like one of these on YouTube [one is below].) According to Verisign, the … [Read more...]

Nice to Hear: Dot Info Domain Extension Used in Radio Commercial by University

February 12, 2017 By John Colascione 4 Comments

I heard one of my first radio commercials today to use a “.info” domain name for its website address. The commercial was about “Brain Imaging” research and was running on behalf of Stony Brook University Hospital and Yale University for their Department of Psychiatry using the domain name Imagers.info to promote Opportunities to Participate in Research. I’ve always liked .info domain names very much when it comes to either “getting information” about something or … [Read more...]
