We looked back at the news from 2019 in the domain industry. We approached it from the perspective of what we're likely to associate with 2019 when we look back at it a few years from now.

Our guess: Voice.com and other big single word .com sales and the .org fiasco.

What do you think the biggest/most important stories in the domain industry this year were?

The demise of Alpnames was pretty big imo.

That was definitely a big one, especially if you were big into nTLDs.

The sale of Fashion.com at 10 million is a steal.

My favourite domain name.

I am curious why the biggest name in Fashion, Louis Vuitton, didn't snap it up at that price.
