That's pretty good. beer.com sold for $7 million, though.

the way I see it, it all depends on the domain name and then the content; and I know several friends doing business by buying domain names and then selling them again to companies and all.

I read an article yesterday about a guy who just buys misspelled domains of popular products. He sticks google ads on them and when the user reaches his site by typing in the wrong URL he gets paid. It said he made over $1000 a month doing this.

Sheesh.I thought everyone uses Google to find sites now, rather than typing URLs?

Default Re: Website sales

These figures are incredible...it would be awesome to be offered that much money one day, especially for a domain name that's not going to be used anyway.

I have my eye on a certain name that was going to expire on the 15th. I was planning to check bright and early on the 16th (yesterday), but forgot and checked later in the day. It was renewed again, for one year. I'm thinking there must be some window between the expiration and the current owner's renewal process with GoDaddy...so I'm going to try again next year, this time at 12:01am.

I figure it would save money that would be needed to offer to buy the domain name from the current owner.
