Ignite.com Leads the Way at Great Domains Auction

January 22, 2015

The first Great Domains auction of 2015 hosted by Sedo ended this morning, and Ignite.com sold for $112,500. The reserve price on Ignite.com had been set between $50,000 – $100,000. In total, the auction grossed a bit under $130,000 in sales, with 6 domain names selling.

I know that Sedo broker Dave Evanson had been reaching out to end user buyers to sell Ignite.com, and there is a good chance one of those contacts was the buyer given the final sale price. Once payment is made and the domain name transfers, I will follow up on this if there seems to be a good story about the acquisition. There are quite a few companies that would benefit from owning Ignite.com, and “ignite” would make an excellent brand name.

The second highest sale of the auction was Wardrobes.com, which sold for 9,999 GBP. The list of the 6 domain names that sold is published below. I presume

Sedo’s Great Domains auction for December ended yesterday, and there was about $188,000 USD in sales closed (several of the sales were in Euros instead of US Dollars). Out of the ten domain names that met reserve and sold, four of them were .DE domain names, Germany’s ccTLD extension.

There were quite a few three letter .com domain names with reserve prices included in the auction, as Aaron Wilkin mentioned last week. Only one of those LLL .com domain names, CCT.com, met its reserve price and sold. I saw that quite a few bids were placed below reserve on those three letter domain names, so perhaps Sedo will be able to close additional sales post-auction.

Listed below are the ten sales from

According to a tweet that was published this morning, the IDNX domain name price index is up a bit more than 25% over the past 12 months. Prices were up 4.7% in October and down .7% in November. You can visit the IDNX website to see the full chart and report.

Despite the robust growth rate during the course of the last year, the IDNX domain index appears to be underperforming a bit when compared to the NASDAQ 100. According to

I received a press release from Sedo this morning announcing that the company is the exclusive broker for the InternetOfThings.com domain name. The domain name is being represented by Sedo broker Brian Michitti. InternetOfThings.com was registered more than a decade ago, but with the “Internet of things” becoming a popular buzz term of late, the value has increased significantly.

Although the press release distributed by Sedo does not mention the asking price, Michitti had submitted the domain name for inclusion in a weekly brokerage listing sale article back in June of 2014, and the asking price had been

Sedo shared the results of its October Great Domains auction, and there were 11 domain names that met the reserve price and sold. The sales were both in USD and EUR, and over $100,000 worth of domain names were sold during this month’s auction.

A trio of three letter .com domain names were the largest sales at this auction, and several ccTLD domain names also sold. Since the auction ended this afternoon, I don’t believe these deals have completed yet at the time of this publication.

Sedo’s Great Domains September monthly auction ended yesterday, and the sales total was just over $100k USD. The largest sale was for the 907.com domain name, which sold for 54000 EUR (just under $69,000 USD).

This auction produced one of the lowest Great Domains results I can recall in quite some time, with only 8 domain names sold. Half of the sales were for .DE ccTLD domain names. I don’t have a record of the domain names that received bids that didn’t meet reserve.

The results of the auction are published below:
