not just russian.. Porno means Porn in many slawish languages (as in Czech where the Buyer is from) and also in German language..
English language is not the only language spoken in the world..

In french too. We use "Porno" to refer to porn/erotic movies.

Porno.com is overpaid domain at least for 8 mln. And that is great part of Rick and other donainers who knew how to get max from their names.

Anyway back on topic.

Porno.com is overpaid domain at least for 8 mln. And that is great part of Rick and other donainers who knew how to get max from their names.

Is it truly overpaid though? I think it's a fair price, possible undervalued even.

We know Sex.com sold for $13M and $14M in the past.

Keyword searches are a big factor in price determination of these premium domains.

Do people think sex.com is still more valuable than porn.com and porno.com?

 

[Argentum]

Is "porno" english word?

 

[LucidDomains]

Is "porno" english word?

Well it wasn't technically but whether they have included it recently or it is now. I'm not sure.

This website has it being in an online English dictionary but I still think it's consider a slang word.

Considering that sex.com worth only $15 mln i thing 8 mln for porno.com is overpaid in 8 times at least. I thing Rick is great domainer not because he holds great names, only because he sells them at great price imho.

Hmmm, children listen up,

porn & porno(s) are short for pornographic ! That's it that's all.

So I had regged in fall:

Pornos.Miami
​

There is difference between domain reseller/flipper and domain investor for reason

1. Buyer is from Europe where Porno is actual word in any language.
2. The Europe has the oldest tradition in this industry in the world.
3. Porno has the biggest search volume in this niche!
4. Porno.com made 10M on traffic
5. You need to understand how much money this industry generate.

This domain worth more!

I bet he gets better offers in the past but he reject all because domain was make ton of money on monthly basis. Now when we don't see this monster sales anymore and traffic revenue is drop he decide to sell it for decent offer.

Do you have idea how much traffic this domain generate?
Do you know how much this traffic worth?

There is really tons of superb metric for this domain, I just want to let you know for a few facts.
