OnlinePokerTournament.mobi SOLD for $2,000


I just completed a private sale of OnlinePokerTournament.mobi, for $2000. Quite a good price for such a long name, I feel. Not to mention that I had registered it on Dec. 10 for $19, just 3 days before receiving the offer!

Of course, it's entirely possible that I could have gotten a lot more if I'd held onto it longer, but I had some .Mobi bills that were coming due...

I still own the plural version, if anyone is interested.

Anyway, if you're late to the game, there's hope of finding good ones this far into it. You just can't get too crazy with the "brandable" names.

Just goes to show that the length of a .Mobi is not that relevant. I have many long, High Ovt names, but not quite this long, LOL. I am very happy for you! Great Job! Every sale is always encouraging. I have long names like realmusicringtones.mobi - Long but the keywords are there! I bet you will have a Merry Christmas!

Congrats. Gambling seems to be the winning niche right now with .mobi. Around 50'000% of ROI per year? Not that bad

Thanks all, and sorry, HasRob...I missed out on a few like that too. I was surprised to get an offer on it so amazingly soon, and to manage to get such a nice sum for 21 letters...I feel very lucky with this one! But I think the buyer felt good about it too, so both sides ended up happy. A couple more of these, and all my .mobi acquisitions will be paid for...I'm already breathing a bit easier.

I suppose this might be the longest .mobi name sold for 4-figures so far?

Care to share how you marketed this domain, or how you came in contact with the buyer? I'm interested in learning about how to better promote domains.

I wish I could offer you some good, solid tips, but the buyer e-mailed me first, asking if it was for sale. I responded yes, and asked him to make an offer. He asked me what my range was, so I decided to say $1,000 to $9,999, since I wanted to get $x,xxx for it. He wrote back to say he was prepared to pay $1,500 for it. I knew that was a good offer so didn't want to push him too hard on it, but responded with $2,000, adding that for that amount I would pay all the escrow fees. He said that sounded fair, and from there it was just a matter of escrow transactions.

I hope that might be useful...but I wasn't actively marketing it, so that's as much as I can offer.
