NamesCon 2019 Domain Auction Returns from Explosive Year of $2.4 Million is Sales

May 3, 2019 By John Colascione Leave a Comment

PALM BEACH – What do you do when a live and online auction produces lackluster results? Why, you re-run it again a couple of months later (Just kidding - As soon as I saw the title of the email, Back by “Popular Demand”, I thought, yea right – but NUMBERS my friends, do not lie, and those numbers show that Domaining, is indeed very much alive and well; at least at NamesCon it is.)

A Look at the Top 100 “.IO” Domain Names Sold in During Past 12 Months (2017-2018)

May 3, 2018 By John Colascione 1 Comment

NEW YORK - Today I purchased two domain names in the '.io' extension - which continues to do well (and I only have a few; less than 10). I registered Heaters.io and Injured.io and I will see what happens with those. They seem like great domains and for Reg fee, there is little to loose. I'm not too sure why the IO tld has done so well recently (it's been around since 1997), but I don't fully understand cryptocurrency either, and that continues to dominate much of the … [Read more...]

Someone Caught Great Deal at Flippa; How Is This Domain Venue Performing for You?

February 26, 2018 By John Colascione 18 Comments

NEW YORK, NY - Someone landed a fantastic deal on Flippa this weekend. Amazingly, I lost the auction despite my accidental astronomical one-too-many zero’s high-bid. I’m not going to mention what domain it was (to avoid any politics on the issue), [all luck to the winner who got a great deal] but the domain name was a single word .com highly-commercial term with an Estibot well over $200,000.00 and it sold for about 9 percent of that. Not a .net domain selling for 9%, but … [Read more...]

January 26, 2018 By John Colascione 1 Comment

NEW YORK – With each passing day we are living and working in more of a 'digital' world. One of my latest companies is called "Cars Digital Inc."

Winners and Losers; A Look at 3 Letter (LLL) Domain Investments Over Last 10 Years

January 21, 2018 By John Colascione Leave a Comment

NEW YORK – Three letter .com domain names are pretty solid investments. They are often referred to as “liquid domains” – those which can be converted into cash quickly.

Although there are some losses on record here, the majority, 68% (194) of all 286 … [Read more...]

Round Two: .COM Domain Values List, “Domainer Domains”, Not Much Change

January 16, 2018 By John Colascione Leave a Comment

NEW YORK, NY - Yesterday, we looked at how some commercial interest .com domain names have changed in value over the last decade. There really was not too much to see with about half of the domain names going up in value  (46%) and half going down (51%). I guess it is fair to say that more declined than went up, but it was pretty close to even. Today I wanted to look at domains with less commercial value, so we will looked at pure domainer domains.  This list examines 35 … [Read more...]

(Data gathered from a list of every .com domain name on record at NameBio which sold more than once in the past 10 years).
