Ten most expensive domains from 2009
Getting the right domain name is hugely important for web based businesses. Sedo reports on the top 10 expensive domains purchased last year. What’s interesting is that it includes four travel related domains.
The ten most expensive global domain sales in 2009:
- Fly.com – £1,152,173.24
- Russia.com – £904,319.74
- Call.com – £678,749.65
- Server.com – £478,143.83
- America.com – £474,977.28
- Files.com – £449,845.74 [updated]
- Christian.com – £366,917.29
- Top.com – £327,916.88
- Talk.com – £303,994.08
- Brazil.com – £302,489.98
Half that list are still just holding pages, while others have an obvious lack of content and general poor design. Take Christian.com for example which is running a very average WordPress theme, and Files.com – Is it worth half a million? (nope, because I got the domain wrong, it’s FILES.COM
The priciest domain, Fly.com was bought by Meta-search giant TravelZoo who most surely deem it worth the purchase.
