Sedo’s Great Domains monthly auction ended yesterday, and I have posted the results below. I think the $9,999 price for Inspirational.com was pretty good, but the total value of under $50k is pretty poor.

Keep in mind the sales below are most likely not paid yet. If you saw something you liked at auction but it didn’t sell, now would be the time to contact Sedo to negotiate a better deal.

I want to share a video that might be of interest to you. Jeremiah Johnston of Sedo participated on the “What Still Works in SEO” panel at SES Toronto in June of 2012. This interview with Jeremiah was done just after the panel ended, and it focused on the current value of domain names for search engine optimization.

The video has some interesting bits of information that I thought you might enjoy.

Do you agree with Jeremiah? What are your thoughts on the value of domain names when it comes to current SEO

Just sold bra(.)com for $165,000!Congrats to both buyer and seller!

Sedo Broker Dave Evanson just reported that he closed a deal on Bra.com, and the sale price was $165,000. The domain name appears to have been owned by Dotzup, and it looks like it’s already been transferred to a Canadian buyer according to the current Whois information.

Dotzup is a company that owns a large portfolio of domain names. The company has Bra.com listed as one of its “premier properties” along with other names like Quotes.com, StockBrokers.com, Anorexia.com and Silver.com.

The Bra.com landing page is the same as it was prior to the sale, so it’s not known what the plans are for the domain name as of yet. Warnaco Inc, the company the owns Calvin Klein, is the owner of the plural Bras.com.

Congratulations to all parties on this deal.

Sedo’s Great Domains auction ended last week, and I have posted the auction results below. The results totaled just over $25,000, but the summer auctions tend to perform poorly.

I wouldn’t be surprised to learn about a sale or two closed in private. I think TJ.com will eventually find a buyer, and I imagine Sedo’s closers are working on making that happen.

Here are the results:

buq.com 5200 $US
washed.com 3600 $US
bicycle.ch 3000 EUR
excites.com 2988 $US

Sedo’s second quarter market report was published today, and the company is reporting that $17.5 million in sales were consummated on its platform with 9,049 domain transactions. From my recollection, there weren’t very many blockbuster sales in the quarter, so it’s a solid number. In the first quarter, Sedo reported 10,133 transactions closed, with a total sales value of over $19 million.

Year over year, sales numbers are a bit down. According to the 2011 second quarter market report, “In Q2, Sedo’s Domain Marketplace saw close to $25,000,000 in global sales.” However, the second quarter saw the $2.5 million sale of Gambling.com, so that is one reason for the higher sales figure.

In this year’s quarterly market report, Sedo reported that the popularity of Buy It Now sales rose to an all-time high of 42% in Q2, up from 39% in Q1. The company continues to push for BIN pricing, which is more helpful for negotiations and MLS sales listings.

Not only is this sales information interesting, but it also provides some insight for an article I wrote a couple of weeks ago asking about the total annual sales volume for the domain industry.

Sedo shared four highlights from the market report:

As I mentioned earlier today, four LL.com domain names have come on the market in the last couple of weeks, and they are being brokered/represented by Sedo, Toby Clements, and Domain Guardians.

I was thinking about some potential buyers for these domain names and wanted to share these ideas. In my opinion, a two letter .com domain name can be a very solid investment (depending on the purchase price of course) and it can also help with marketing.
