Code.co.uk just sold privately for £18,000 making it the highest .co.uk domain name sale in 2012.
The current DnJournal.com report shows CouponCodes.co.uk selling for $22,000 which was the previous highest sale for this year.
£18,000 converts to almost $28K USD
The seller of the domain is Richard Kershaw and his company Qualitynonsense.com.
In addition to being a domainer, Mr. Kershaw is a developer whose current project is wish.co.uk
Nice sale congrats to the buyer and seller.
Single, meaningful, brandable dot coms, or, in this case, .co.uk, which is the UK equivilent of dot com in the US, bring the value. Just noticed the headline,
It has to be the domain, Path.com. That gives the business all the credibility. It has a nicely-designed site, good concept, but Path already made a mistake to allow contacts to be viewable to advertisers, for which the founder apologized. It’s like, Cloud.com, had a part in imparting the value to its owner company.
Its not the highest .co.uk sale in 2012. It maybe the highest public sale, or highest you have been aware of, but there have been a fair few £18k or higher ones – even a 6fig one that is commonish knowledge.

Its always about where the sales fall in DnJournal.com chart.
Rob ! I have noticed that to – I believe there a re a lot f sales not being reported !
There are a lot of sales not reported I would say 1/2 of all sales over $25K
Mike career.co.uk sold higher last year than coupon codes uk – dnjournal reported it
I think Houses.co.uk sold last year for about $50k….Not certain, but pretty sure.
