Pool Skim for Saturday August 27th

August 28, 2010 by domainqueen  
Filed under Domain Auctions, General

The Pool.com auction channel features ongoing deletion and drop lists values in premium and first-drop tiers of selective bidding. The domain 0salestax.com makes a fabulous shopping portal or store directory. Any Ebay vendor would kill to be on that list. The dropping nom aprcreditoffers.com answers its own question.

The domain obucks.com could be a green re-use listing portal or a (gag!) appraisal site. That would be a site people would pay to get their wares off of.

Variants of 1-800 lazer eyes are vending in a herd. 1040-extension.com does not seem too taxing. 14th snap.com and 1800gymnastics.com could tumble to big domain sale flips. 1800webuild.com could be edifying. The name 1st2bid.com is a likely auction favorite.. 1websiteaday.com could be a domain fliing destination. Lots of 247 names moving through the list, like 247apps.com.

2coolforwork.com is a site that may or may not make the grade. 2fixcredit.com might be a good one for short paying short spellers. More at Pool.com….

DentalInsuranceComparison.com at Sedo auction, very low reserve

Filed under Domain News

Recently there have been a huge interest in the “insurance” domain names thanks to the recent discovery of the sale of Insurance.com for over $35 million dollars. There is currently an insurance domain running at Sedo domain marketplace. The domain is DentalInsuranceComparison.com and currently the bid (reserve met) is very low.

Petinsurancecomparison.com was sold for $11,100 and if you compare with that price, current reserve or bid is very, very low.

Food Truck Race Burns Servers

The Yahoo ads and food network site for the Great Food Truck race has been down for some time, which must mean record demand has blown a fuse at the NOC or that someone forgot to recharge whatever Iphone it is running on. Nevertheless, the Great Food Truck race pits seven food trucks, three of them from Los Angeles, against hot and cold ice cream competitors.

The American TV road trip Odyssey taps the hot food truck trend. Coverage form a Google search the day of the premiere renders results not from the source. News is everywhere from TVsquad to the LA Weekly to Entertainment Weekly, just no originating domain bandwidth is available. Pity. Usually getting information about a TV premiere is a bit easier, especially online.

What a waste of SEO and active links! Looks like whomever blogs a website about this will get plenty of hits.

It’s a gutsy move using Yahoo banners and prominently displayed advertising online to promote a that-night series premiere of a roach-coach reality show, and then not have servers or links running when the click on the banner loads. Could this be the start of “un-advertising?” Either that or whomever hosts the Food Network site has some competition worries from any web hosting company that can form a service offering quote.

Insurance .info domain sale; insurancequote.info domain sold in low xx,xxx

August 13, 2010 by Domain News  
Filed under Domain Sales

After I have read an interesting news about the acquisition of Insurance.com website for around $35 million US dollars by a business firm, I don’t find it surprising to see the domain sale of InsuranceQuote.info for low xx,xxx range. The domain  was sold through Sedo domain market place and the sale was mentioned at Dnjournal.com domain sale column this week.

It was interesting news because I recently acquired InsuranceComparison.com (development in the process). Both “insurance quote” and “insurance comparison” got high CPC (cost per click) over $15 per click. “Insurance comparsion” was searched around half of the search volume of “insurance quote” keyword. But after analysing the keywords, I think “insurance comparison” is better than “insurance quote (because of being singular and not plural keyword)” and this insurance .info domain sale even makes me harder to part with my domain.

Impressive .at domain sale; tracker.at sold over $20,000

Filed under Domain Sales

It was interesting to see the domain sale of Tracker.at for over $20,000 recent. The domain, Tracker.at was exactly sold for 18,000 Euros and it is equivalent to $23,235. It was an impressive sale for a .at (Austria) domain. I could recall Job.at was sold in xxx,xxx range a few months ago.

I have registered following .at domains a few months ago when Eurodns was offering a massive discount on .at domains (registered until 2017).

Theme.at
Consolidation.at
Diagnosis.at
Grocery.at
Impotence.at
Medication.at
Practice.at
Settle.at
Slimming.at
Submitted.at
Accepted.at

If interested in any or all of them, contact me via admin (at) deliciousnames.com (replace (at) with @ ).

YYY.com sold for mid xx,xxx

Filed under Domain Sales

The domain, YYY.com was sold for mid xx,xxx and it was a rare LLL.com domain sale. The domain was EXACTLY sold at $45,444 and it was through Sedo domain marketplace. There are only 26 such LLL.com domains and I think it is a fair price for both seller and the buyer. It is also brandable LLL.com domain as well.

Have acquired InsuranceComparison.com

Filed under Domain News

I acquired the domain, InsuranceComparison.com recently and it took me nearly one month to close this deal. I have sold a few insurance domains and I like that niche.

I am planning to develop this domain, InsuranceComparison.com into a business website but it would need extensive project to do such a website, I believe. Do you recommend/know any business website developer who could create an insurance comparison website?

I am thinking of using subdomains such as

Car.InsuranceComparison.com, Health.InsuranceComparison.com, Pet.InsuranceComparison.com
Home.InsuranceComparison.com
Travel.InsuranceComparison.com
Life.InsuranceComparison.com

etc…

What do you think of such subdomain creation? Would you suggest creating directories instead of subdomains?

Sec.de Germany domain sold in six figure range

July 23, 2010 by Domain News  
Filed under Domain Sales

It was interesting to see a six figure domain sale of Sec.de for 136,850 EURO (around $177,126.75 US dollars). The domain was sold at the Sedo domain marketplace. Even though it was a good LLL.de, I thought it was a bit too much for such a .de domain because I believed even Sec.com would not be  worth that much money.

A good domain sale for the domain seller.

.co domain names. 5 of my generic one word preorders were successful.

July 21, 2010 by Domain News  
Filed under Domain News

I was not into .co domain names until last 5 days or so ago. I thought I would not want to risk $300 per domain. But I became interested in preordering .co domains 5 days or so ago. Therefore I started looking into preordering the .co domain names but surprisingly most of the popular generic .co domains had been already preordered.

I was only able to put 15 to 20 .co domain preorders and today I confirmed that I got the following .co domains.

Fridges.co

Refrigerators.co

Boiler.co

Freezers.co

Heaters.co

I am confident that I would have some interest for my above .co domains. I have plans to develop these domains but if I receive the right offers before I have time to develop them, may consider selling them individually or as a group. I am more positive after learning that there was a six figure sale for a .co domain recently.
