Sedo  is closing out the year strongly, posting $2.42 million in domain sales last week, including the $500,000 sale of 3D.com. That domain name is under privacy guard at Moniker, so it’s unknown who acquired it, and it’s currently parked. MarketAnalysis.com was the second highest sale, followed by Mike Mann’s News.CO sale.

Also posting this week are sales from Sedo’s Great Domains auction that concluded on the 8th.

Sedo’s Weekly Sales – $1.53 Million

Elliot Silver

SedoThis past week at Sedo, there were a total of 899 sales, totaling $1.53 million. Most interesting to me was the fact that 35% of the total sales were the result of Buy Now listings, meaning the domain owner had priced the domain name upon listing it for sale. It’s especially interesting in light of my post earlier today about replying to inquiries.

The leading sale of the week was the $40,000 sale of makassar.com, and heartoflove.com followed at 30,000 EUR. There were several two letter .DE sales last week, and the prices seem to be relatively low for the .DE extension (my opinion).

The entire list of Sedo’s public sales over $1,000 from last week are listed below.

Sedo: .XXX Parking & Sales Permitted

Elliot Silver

70

For domain investors who have bought .XXX domain names, the next logical step after securing a domain name is to park it and/or list it for sale.

I just received an email from Sedo in response to a question I posed, and I was informed that “clients can park and sell their new .XXX domains at Sedo,” beginning later on today. This is good news for those who wish to monetize their investment(s) without having to get more involved in the adult industry.

Please note that the back-end Sedo update is still in progress, and the TLD will be listed in the search TLD filter once the update is complete this afternoon. Everything should be set by later this afternoon or possibly tomorrow.

Feel free to post your .XXX domain acquisitions if you’d like.

As is the tradition at Sedo, Director of Sales Kathy Nielsen rang the office bell to announce the sale of 3D.com. The company successfully brokered 3D.com for $500,000, in a deal that closed yesterday. The domain name was put up for sale in April of this year, and it appears to be owned by Register.com. The buyer’s identity was not revealed.

Congrats to Sedo on closing this big sale yesterday.

 

Sedo Announces Hiring of New CEO

SedoSedo has hired Tobias Flaitz, previously with a company called Hubert Burda Media, as the company’s new CEO and member of the Board of Management. He replaces company co-founder Tim Schumacher, “who is leaving the Board of Management as of December 31, 2011 for personal reasons.”

Under Schumacher’s leadership, Sedo grew to become the largest domain aftermarket, and a large parking company as well. Schumacher is expected to continue an association with Sedo, as the company that owns Sedo intends to propose Schumacher as a member of its Supervisory Board.

Last August, it was announced that Sedo’s Jeremiah Johnston, was dropping his position as Chief Operating Officer to focus on starting a private legal practice. Johnston continues to be Sedo’s General Counsel.

I wish Schumacher all the best with whatever his next endeavor is.

Press Release:

The Supervisory Board of Sedo Holding AG has named Tobias Flaitz (40), previously with Hubert Burda Media, as the new CEO/member of the Management Board of Sedo. On February 1, 2012, he will succeed Sedo’s current CEO and co-founder, Tim Schumacher (35), who is leaving the Board of Management as of December 31, 2011 for personal reasons. At the next Annual General Meeting 2012 the Supervisory Board is due to be newly elected. In a proposal by United Internet AG, the Supervisory Board intends to propose Tim Schumacher as a new member of the Supervisory Board.

 

Tim Schumacher co-founded Sedo in 2001, together with Marius Würzner, Ulrich Essmann and Ulrich Priesner, and led the company to become the global leader in domain trading. In 2007, he was named “Entrepreneur of the Year” by Ernst & Young Germany. In 2009, he became CEO of Sedo Holding AG, which is comprised of Sedo’s domain business and ‘affilinet’, one of Europe’s leading affiliate marketing platforms.

 

Tobias Flaitz holds a degree in engineering and an MBA from the Universities of St.Gallen, Switzerland, and Berkeley, CA. He worked successfully for many years as a consultant for Accenture as well as Booz & Co. in the USA and EMEA. Since 2007 Tobias Flaitz held a management position in Strategy and Business Development with Hubert Burda Media in Munich.

 

“On behalf of the Supervisory Board, I would like to thank Tim Schumacher for the many years of excellent and trustful cooperation, for his personal commitment and the great accomplishments he has attained for the company. He founded and led Sedo from being a start-up to the world’s largest marketplace for domains and the leading domain parking company,” said Michael Scheeren, Chairman of the Supervisory Board. “We are delighted that Tim Schumacher will be available for further cooperation within the Supervisory Board. At the same time, we are delighted to have obtained the services of Tobias Flaitz, as an experienced manager with competence in digital business models and consulting expertise in strategy development and process optimization, who will drive Sedo’s further expansion during the coming years.”
