Domain name sales appear to be taking a summer hiatus with only one
domain name sale topping the $100,000 mark in the two weeks to 8 August
in Domain Name Journal’s list of top reported sales.
The top seller in the period was huddle.com, sold for $131,400 through NameJet. A seven-way tie for nineteenth place meant that of the top 25 reported sales for the week to 8 August, 16 were sold through Sedo while six three number domains were sold by DotMedia. These six-three number domains were part of a package of 14 three-digit domains sold for $152,000 bought by a 22-year-old entrepreneur from China.
It was a slow sales week in the preceding week to 1 August with no sales topping the $100,000 mark. The top sale of the week was oy.com, selling for $90,000 through Sedo. Sedo took out 12 of the top 20 sales while YummyNames brokered two of the top 20 sales.
