More Sex

Another absolutely huge domain for sale in the auction section of Sedo.com is:

SEX.INFO

Obviously this will get a lot less type in traffic than sex.com but for an informational site about the birds and the bees, I can't think of a better name. Keep an eye on this one as I think it will pop off pretty high.

At the moment it has had 12 bids, and stands at $175,000. What do you think it will end up at?
I'm guessing $2,000,000. Maybe optimistic? We'll see in 10 day, 10 hours and 30 minutes.

Harry Potter Deathly Hallows Domain Name

DeathlyHallo.ws

Ever been to Western Samoa? No? What do you think of when you hear "Western Samoa"? I'll bet Harry Potter isn't the first thing that comes to mind.

Let me explain. The domain name extenstion dot ws (.ws) ist used by the country of Western Samoa, and it is not as popular as other extensions. Some have tried to make the extension more popular by using .ws as an abbreviation for website. Another use for it is commonly known as a domain hack where the extension and the domain name make up a whole word, like sentenc.es or gondo.la. The seller writes:

This is a sale of the internet domain name www.deathlyhallo.ws. Perfect domain for any dedicated Harry Potter fan.

Use it to point to your myspace or facebook page or as your email address i.e. harry@deathlyhallo.ws or sue@deathlyhallo.ws


It is registered until 2009 but I doubt the deathly hallows movie will be out by then. Don't be a muggle and bid here.

Are you a Professional Brit?

Are you British? Do you wear a bowler hat and take an umbrella to work? Well you don't have to even own those items to bid on this auction.



Seller Mwzd is auctioning off the domain name British.Pro. The auction description states:


THE ULTIMATE BRITISH DOMAIN NAME

IDEAL FOR BRITISH PRO GOLFERS

IDEAL FOR BRITISH PRO DIRECTORY

True, it could be used for these things, but I wonder if it would be useful at all if you were based in Soho? Bid here if you fancy your chances. :)<

Sexy Domain Name


Is racking up bids on ebay right now. 16 bids as I write this and bidding is stuck at $2000, although I imagine it will shoot up at the end.
Dot IO is the domain extension for the Indian Ocean.

Seller Burchwebmarketing includes an Afternic.com appraisal which values the domain's top whack at $205,390.00

This might seem a lot but some things never go out of fashion. =P
The seller also includes the information that Sex.com sold for $14 million, and Sex.net sold for $454,000 last June. Moral of the story: sex sells. What will this domain go for.

You can go here to bid or just to take a peak.
