DomainNames.com sold?

Posted on February 15, 2018

Josh from Brand Consultants gets the tip of the cap here as he spotted the valuable name moving from New Ventures Services Corp to a  Wang, Yinan out of Beijing.

The domain was registered in 1996. Currently the site does not resolve to a website.

  2. New Ventures Services Corp, the warehousing company of Web.com group to snatch expired domains by taking advantage of a legal loophole in ICANN RAA.

    kudos to an almost zero risk activity.

    1. I’d take DomainNames.com over Domains.com any day. More self explanatory to laymen who don’t always associate the word “domains” with “domain names”.

        1. No, they know the phrase “domain names.” “URL” is more or less never in normal people’s vocabulary. At least here in the US.

          1. Believe me, I hear my clients and colleagues in the U.S. refer to them erroneously as URLs almost every day. “Hey Logan, how would it cost us to buy that URL?” Makes me cringe, but it’s true.

      2. R P you have raised an extremely valuable and important point. I have also made the same point before about why “StockMarket.com” is worth a lot and in some respects better than shorter versions. You have an uphill battle, however, because the industry has its head so far up its ass about this aspect of the matter than they can’t stop shooting themselves and all of us in the foot.

        1. “Who the cap fit, let them wear it”. I don’t necessarily value a domain on whether it’s one word or two words. More interested in the exact meaning and whether it can be used for obvious commercial purposes.

          1. You are a rare sighting of rationality and sanity in the midst of Kool-Aid drinkers, servers, and emperors without clothes indeed, whoever you are.

  5. Yinan Wang sold creditcard.net in 2011 for $138,000 and moremoney.com in 2017 for $67,000. These are just a couple of sales I found. Seems to be a domain investor.

  9. I’m the buyer of DomainNames.com, I did the search via NetworkSolutions.com and found it’s in their premium domain name lists with a very bargin price. Then I bought it and paid immediately via credit card. Networksolutions pushed the domain name to my Netsol account after 3 days, and I have the full control on the domain names. But NetSol has removed it from my account today without any notifications.

    I will update further later. Thanks for the comments.
