Very nice sale. They've been closely affiliated with MSM for a long time now so it really doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

Great sale, but it was not domain name sale

 

[iowadawg]

Yes, it was a domain name sale, which included the business.
Or was it a business sold and the domain was included?

Either way, still a stupendous amount to pay.

Thats about $134,623,800 USD~!! :lala:

However this isn't a domain only sale considering the sites been online since 2003,
has an Alexa of 1,546 an Pagerank 7.

Apparently the site earned £15.8m in rev from Jan to Oct of last year, So the
purchase was a no brainer for its new owner.

:lol:
