What does Sedo mean?

[AHA7]

Hello,

You all know the famous Sedo.com site. But what does SEDO mean? Does it mean anything at all?

 

[Jennifer]

I think it means... Search Engine for Domains... or something along those lines

 

[OK]

I don't think SEDO stands for anything, and is just a company name, like Yahoo.

Search Engine for Domain Names.

SEDN

Doesn't Yahoo have a meaning! Wehn you are happy running down a street don't you yell "Yahooooooo"? My question!

 

[Jennifer]

OK.. it's search engine for domain offers....

 

[Joseph]

SEarch DOmains

I agree.

 

[monRa]

That's why they regged sedo.com!
Because I just saw that searchdomains.com is regged from 1997!

 

[Momo]

Lol, and I thought before that it didn't stand for anything, just a brand.

I thought it was short for Sell Domains...
But Archive.org confirms as well that "Search Engine for Domain Offers" is indeed the correct answer..

Sedo had to pay $90k for the .COM of their name, so it must be Seller Extremely Difficult One.

I wish it meant search engine domain optimisation (their parking page could do with more optimising choice IMO )

I wonder if they got sedo.be for FREE !
