SEX.COM - Most Expensive Adult Domain Name
 
When Clover Holdings bought Sex.com in November for $13 million, it sounded like a whole lotta bada-bing, bada-bang for your buck, and now the Guinness World Records has made it official: Sex.com is the "Most expensive Internet address domain name"

You can do so much more with that amount of $...

Nothing new really. Sex.com has always been the most expensive. At the same time sex.com should be considered the most useless domain ever.

it should be in the record books as the most wasted domain name

That should have an * that points out it's the most expensive address ever sold. I'm sure there are domains that are worth more like Amazon.com, Google.com, Facebook.com, etc... that just have never been sold.

$13 million is a lot of money. Congratulations, sex.com.

Im not sure why they have sex.com as the most expensive ?

1. Insure.com, sold to QuinStreet for $16 million in 2009.

:thumbsup Seriously if you put a couple hard working independent webmasters from GFY on it and it would rule all. But the big companies owning this are clueless.

Quoted for truth.

There are relatively safe ways to generate a much higher ROI with $13M than putting it all in one domain.

Fob 02-24-2011 03:15 AM
sex.com was the most sought domain name since the internet was invented...

nikki99 02-24-2011 03:56 AM

If they do well it may make $1000 this year.

LadyMischief 02-24-2011 09:29 AM
Would be so much more worthwhile if it actually MADE anyone any money instead of just COSTING them money! LOL

Even if you hired a chimp to manage the domain you could make that weekly...


chimps have troubles typing too!

The domain has a lot of history to it. Maybe that has some valuation in determining the price :).

3- letter .com!
'sex' is still the best keyword although 'porn' is catching up.

Very true. Too generic IMO.
