Video: Why Nick Huber Paid $400k for Somewhere.com

Nearly a year and a half ago, I wrote about the $400,000 acquisition of Somewhere.com, which was one of the largest one word .com domain name sales last year. Somewhere.com was acquired by Nick Huber, and the domain name was used to brand Support Shepherd.

In a LinkedIn video posted yesterday, Nick Huber discussed why he bought the domain name. In the video, Nick remarked that he has gotten more value from the domain name than he paid for it. Notably, while the sale was reported at $400,000, the host referenced a $450,000 acquisition price and the acquisition cost is noted as “over $400,000.” I asked Nick why there is a discrepancy on the purchase price, and I will update the sale references if necessary.

Thanks to Tim Hargis for sharing this video with me.
