A Record Breaking, Six Figure .CO Domain Sale Will Be Announced This Week

You will be reading about a six figure sale of a .Co domain this week.

The current record price paid for a .Co domain,  is E.CO which sold for $81K with the proceeds going to charity.

This sale will blow that one away.

Although I can’t reveal the domain, or the buyer, I can tell you its going to be a record setting sale for a .CO domain and the Buyer is not only a public company, but a member of the USA Today Internet 50 stock index.

Its a major acquisition and a huge boost for the .CO extension not just because of the price, but because of the buyer.

Now I know your asking, ” Mike how do you know about it if, it hasn’t been released?

Good question.

I helped to facilitated the transaction.

Ok that’s all you get for now.

Don’t start guessing, (although I know you will)

I can’t say anything more for now.

    “…so, .co is really the only extension that
    represents corporation.”

    On the basis of your comment, I believe dotPRO is one of the best extensions available for registration. IMHO, better than dotCO. While “pro” is not an abbreviation for the words “company” or “corporation”, it can be used to reference not only corporation and company, but other business forms as well (i.e., LLC, LLP, partnership, limited partnership, association, sole proprietorship, etc.).

    Unlike dotLA (Laos), dotTV (Tuvalu), dotCO (Columbia) and dotME (Montenegro), the “PRO” in dotPRO has always stood for professional. No rebranding required, and it’s a member of the same gTLD club as dotCOM, dotNET & dotORG. That’s an advantage.
