NEWZONE.COM Headlines at $20K to Lead Sedo’s Weekly Sales Recap

Sedo Weekly Domain Sales Recap

Each week, the online domain marketplace Sedo.com releases a list of their top public domain sales of $2,000 USD or higher (private sales are not reported). This chart is separated into three sections, the .COM domains, the ccTLDs (Country Code Top-Level Domains) and lastly, the Other domains, which represents the .ORG, .NET and other gTLDs.

This Sedo Weekly Public Domain Sales Recap covers public domain transactions from April 13, 2020 to April 19, 2020. We start off the .COM section of this recap with the chart leader, albeit only by a thin margin, newzone.com, which changed hands at a price tag of $20,000 USD. At $18,000 USD, tasawoq.com was right behind, along with some other 5-figure sales like diurnal.com (12,000 EUR), multigrip.com ($11,000 USD), delpais.com ($10,000 USD), and bid360.com ($10,000 USD). In all, we counted a total of 39 .COM transactions of $2,000 or higher this week, which fits just above the 35, 22, and 31 qualifier range of our prior three Sedo recaps.

The ccTLD section of our recap begins with a pair of 5-figure transactions, as the single-words surge.ai and site.pl sold for $10,500 USD and 10,000 EUR, respectively. This chart offered absolutely no short ccTLD domains, which is a true rarity, and other high-value listings included hypersport.de (7,250 EUR), blanx.cn ($5,700 USD), perfectos.pe ($5,500 USD), and onlinecasino.co.kr ($5,000 USD). Overall, this week’s chart featured 17 ccTLD domain sales that reached a price of at least $2K (which sits just above the range of 15, 15, and 12 similar transactions from the prior 3 recaps), with the country extension leaders sorting out in this order: .DE (11 listings), and then single entries for .AI, .CH, .CN, .CO.KR, .PE, and .PL.

The Other portion of the Sedo chart provides more of a mix of different gTLDs, but at the end of the day, it’s still an old school world. The only 5-figure price tags are found on boycott.org ($15,000 USD) and lpm.org ($12,500 USD), while the highest ranked new gTLD was collective.space at an even $8,000 USD. It was more of a competition for the total dollar value and total domain number challenge crowns, but the .ORG/.NET crowd still went home with them. We tallied 8 domain sales in this week’s Other section, which rests just above the 5, 5, and 3 transaction range of our last 3 weekly updates.
