Adult.co.uk Hits The Sales Block

January 26, 2011 by Michael Berkens

According to Metro.co.uk the domain name Adult.co.uk is up for sale.

Although no asking price was given.

Originally purchased back in 1996 for an undisclosed sum, a spokesperson for Adult.co.uk has stated on the upcoming sale:

“Sex.com was such a huge success when it went on sale last year and this has shown just how powerful a premium domain name can be for a business and how high the demand can be.”

“I believe that many businesses are realising how much a good domain name can help with the success of their business.”

“A domain name like Adult.co.uk is very clear, concise and, most importantly, best in class for its related sector”

The domain name is also for lease for the sum of 5,000 Pounds a month or approximately $8,000
