Hey all.
Just wondered. Is world news (wn.com) a domain investor aswell as news site? I have noticed they purchase alot of domains and point them to wn.com.
Is this purely for investment or just to do with seo and website building.

Sorry about it being abit random its jusy something that was on my mind ( plus they have brought one or 2 .org / .net domains that i have the .com for.

Cheers Danny

Yes. That's correct. I didn't mention developed sites like cheese.com.
According to Ahrefs it gets about 100k US visitors per month.
Back in the days we called same type of sites as doorways or satellites (no unique content / low quality / etc).

Perfect names could get much more traffic and dominate in the serps. But looks like it's not their business :)

WoW, I just quick scanned there portfolio and found they have 122,549 domains.

The WN domain name portfolio owner is Domain Finance Inc of Malaysia / Ms Naidu. You can predict what they/she will buy, just follow the world wide trends, especially "just born trends". They/she use private tunnel or proxy buying. btw WN / DF inc / Ms Naidu often pop up on WIPO list

Thank you Riz M. Actually, we are interested in buying one premium name from their portfolio. They seem to 301 all their domains to subpages of wn.com, none of them are on the markets. I have found few of their contact emails tho...

Did anyone try to reach them with an offer?


I contacted them in past. Received a reply saying we will get in touch.

They did not.
