After selling to godaddy for $35M, does a $24K sale still get you excited, I would think not...

I thought it's illegal to sell trademarked domains.

 

[Steven McEvoy]

These so called sales are really getting out of hand...

 

[johnd]

So called sales? Are their sales any more out of hand than 90% of sales you see on the lists each month?

[BRANDERX]

I don't get this sale, but congrats to both..

 

[urlurl]

i guess they taste better than regular kids, LMFAO

He didn't sell to GoDaddy for $35 million

Mike Mann knows exactly when and to whom to sell domain names. The Cambridge Analytica incident has put a spotlight on some unconventional methods of acquiring customers(Psychographic profiles) - a new level of predictive and behavior analytics.

Where is he getting this data from ? and how is he analyzing it ? and what can we do to compete at his level ?

 

[creataweb]

Nice job @Mike Mann


I assume this is an upgrade purchase?

 

[Silentptnr]

Nice job @Mike Mann


I assume this is an upgrade purchase?

I assumed so because of the buyer's original url.

 

[AIS01]

what a mike mannnnnn .. hehhehehehe...

 

[Joshua Harding]

Imagine asking 25k for that name..

 

[JB Lions]

If you look at most of those sales, it's him having something.com selling to something.someotherextension. Just like this sale, selling to .com.au

 

[indiegrind]

I dont see why its so unbelievable. Its the value of a brand to a company with the $ to afford it.

On the business end, for a brand to move from a geo-targeted focus to a worldwide expansion, its a no brainer to drop 25k on the global internet identity for your brand.

 

[Silentptnr]

Imagine asking 25k for that name..

It's calculated I imagine. The question I have is how to locate available .com with .com.au already regged.

My thoughts...Mandy started out and couldn't afford dot com (or just wanted to remain GEO) and bought the ".com.au"...wrote a book..book made money..can afford (dot)com..bought it to make book go world wide to make more money
