Weddinggift.com and weddinggifts.com sold for six figures.

There was a six figure domain sale for a pair of domains, weddinggift.com and weddinggifts.com. The domains are sold for $160,000 and they are of good quality and they have solid keywords to achieve six figure domain sale. The pair was sold at Sedo domain marketplace and it was a good domain sale.

Let’s look at some stats for the keywords. The keyword “wedding gift” appeared around nearly 2 million times in Google and for the keyword “wedding gifts“, there were around 2.5 million google search results. Estimated cost per click is around $1.5 per click and there are around over 700,000 google phrase searches per month for the keywords altogether. I think it might have been sold to an end user or to a serious investor.

Freestay.com sold for around $15,000

There was a domain sale recently and it was the domain, freestay.com sold for 10,000 GBP ( around $15,000) and it certainly was an interesting domain sale. It is a brandable domain but there were hardly any EXACT searches per month for the keyword “free stay” in Google (less than 500 EXACT searches per month). But pay per click or Cost per click is over $1 per click.

StayFree.com is a developed site and there are around 300,000 google search results for the keyword “free stay” in Google. I wonder the domain gets some revenue because of similar website name.

Musicvideos.com sold for $250,000

It is very interesting to see the domain sale of Musicvideos.com  for $250,000 . The domain sale was sold at Sedo domain marketplace. The domain, MusicVideos.com is a two worded domain and one might think the price is too much.

But I did some keyword analysis and the data suggested that the price the domain sold was a fair price. When I looked at the Google keyword tool, there were over 1.2 million EXACT searches per month for the keyword “Music Videos“. CPC (cost per click) is around $0.7 per click and there are  massive over 50 million google search results for the keyword.

Netherland or Dutch domain, transpower.nl sold for around $21,000

Netherland or Dutch domain, transpower.nl was recently sold for 15,500 Euros (about $21,000). Most likely it was bought by an end user and there are around 300,000 google search results for the keyword “transpower“.

There are a few companies with “transpower” keyword in the company name in different coutries such as New Zealand, United Kingdom, Canada, Taiwan, India etc…

When I looked at the Google keyword tool, there are around 4,400 EXACT searches per month for the keyword “transpower”. It was a nice domain sale for the domain seller.

Escortservice.de , a German domain with English words sold for xx,xxx

There was a recent domain sale and it was escortservice.de sold for xx,xxx range. The domain is a German domain with English words and it is also without any hyphens. In German, people prefer hyphenated domains if more than one word and the domain sold has only English words and therefore I think this domain sale is a good one for the seller.

When I looked at the stats, there are only 880 EXACT searches per month for the keyword in Germany. It was a nice German domain sale.

I have reduced the price tag of my dictionary domain by over 90 percent discount at BargainDomains.com

I have already listed a few domains at BargainDomains.com and it is a great site for domainers to list their domains. Now I decided to list one of my one word dictionary domain name. The domain name is www.Cessation.com (also a website) and it is appraised at $322,000 by Valuate.com . I have attached the screen snapshot of the valuation or domain appraisal below. I have set the price for my domain www.Cessation.com (also website) at $30,000 with more than 90 % discount.

Some stats regarding the keyword “Cessation”.

Google results = over 10 million search results.

Google PHRASE search around 450,000 times per month for the keyw0rd.

Google EXACT search over 40,000 times per month for the keyword “Cessation”.

I have put the screen snapshot of the domain appraisal for the domain, Cessation.com below.

Keukens.com Sold for $13,000. What does “Keukens” mean?

The domain, Keukens.com was sold for five figure range at $13,000. The domain was sold at Sedo domain marketplace and I was thinking why the domain was sold at this price. I thought it might have got some meaning in other language and I looked at some stats.

The keyword “Keukens” appeared around nearly 2 million times in Google results and the top website which appeared for the keyword was Keukens.nl . I then think it has some meaning in Dutch (Netherland) language. When I searched for the meaning of the keyword “Keukens” in Dutch language, I found out that it had the meaning of “kitchens” in English.

Now I know why it goes for low five figure range.

LL.de sold for xx,xxx. Mo.de sold for around $20,000

I saw a LL.de sold for xx,xxx range and the German domain sold was Mo.de which was sold at 15,470 Euros (around $21,150 ). I don’t know whether the buyer was after a brandable German domain or bought it because it was like “MODE” keyword.

Any way, it was a healthy domain sale.

Good .org domain sale. Francehotels.org sold for five figures.

I saw the recent .org domain sale of the domain, Francehotels.org for 9,999 Euros (nearly $13,600). I think it was an end user sale and it was a nice domain sale for the domain seller.

The domain has been registered since 1999 and it is registered at Godaddy. When I looked the keyword “France Hotels” stats, I found out that there are over 37 million google search results for the keyword “France Hotels”. There are over 60,000 EXACT search results for the keyword per month and CPC (click per cost) is about $3 per click.
