400 million dollars domain sex.com stealing content
 

seriously sex.com?

its user submitted

check yourself before you break yourself.

I just had a look for the first time in ages - You can't pin ATM - How long had that been the case?..

Google Promotes This Behavior Too.

I bet you sex.com is not profitable.

LOL, your a vet ?

Alexa rank has nothing to do with profitability. :)

$400 million for the domain....and it's profitable. Yah right. LOL
Maybe in eight years it will turn to black but I bet you sex.com is still in the red.

What 400 mln?

It was really crappy before the pinboard change, I thought it was 13mil, though...

the site is one of the biggest on the planet. if you don't think that is profitable you are clueless. :2 cents:

It wasn't $400 million. The fact that you are in the industry and even think the domain was purchased for $400 million is just wow. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Edited to be less harsh as I'm assuming you haven't had your morning coffee yet.

LOL, All my mean angry posts are generally before my first cup, lol

It is profitable, weather it is turning a profit yet, that is a different question and what porn nerd meant ;)

this just borrowed contents bro

15 Of The Most Expensive Domains Of All Time

At the top of the market, sex.com sold for $13m. It would have had to change hands 30.8x since that purchase at that same $13m sale price in order to achieve $400m.

To put it further into perspective, Youporn sold for $50m (roughly) and it was one of the top 50 sites on the planet. No one paid 8x more than that for sex.com.

Has anyone ever once heard anyone that isn't in the industry say "I love sex.com!"?
I haven't, just Pornhub and Youporn..

Quoted for truth

Sex.com has been doing this for awhile. In fact there was even a lawsuit about it. I think I read it on xbiz but it could have been AVN.

Domain was sold for 13$ mill several years ago

so did I :2 cents:

Dude, the fact that you are in the Industry and cannot read a THREAD TITLE and then did not assume I was making a joke off THAT.....LOL

(I know it was $13 mil but I didn't start the thread.)

My POINT (thanks Best-In-BC) is that I bet sex.com is not profitable YET. Perhaps in 3-5 years it will be in the black but right now I bet they are still recouping that initial $13 mil.

Man people on GFY suddenly got so fucking LITERAL. :D

Haha Sure ;))))

$400 million. Lol. You mean $13 million.

not even worth that anymore.

US Search volumes.

sex 2,240,000
porn 45,500,000
porno 9,140,000
xxx 4,090,000
free porn 20,400,000

As you can see there is at least 4 generic domains more important than sex.com.

Porno.com sold for $8.8m last year.
Based on the data i just posted someone come up with a realistic value for sex.com domain name today.

It's all that Amsterdam weed man. :D

Spot on...

1 million Indians and Russians typing in sex.com....

United States 15.0%
Russia Flag Russia 10.9%
India Flag India 10.0%
South Africa 5.9%
Germany Flag Germany 3.4%

But I would still say sex.com at 13 million was a steal, why they fuck around with content is a loss though

Fucking immigrants!

ah yes, the vanity domain game. Its like musical chairs to see who's left holding the bag (empty of money)

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

You just posted complete nonsense.

I'm too lazy to explain.

God, does it hurt to be so stupid?

Do you even know the definition of "profit"? Google it if you have to.

Yeah, i bet it makes more sense to bang peoples cards for $165 on a Free Trial

Dumbass.

awwww, my feelings are hurt, shitstain.

I used to use sex.com when they were a popular PPC search engine.

Once they stopped that, I stopped paying them lots of money.

How long do you think it took for sex.com to make back that $13mil?
I really don't care about this subject at all. LOL

It has nothing to do with profit.

If sex.com makes profit on a month to month basis, then they are profitable.

I matters not how much money they initially invested into it.

That's his point. How long it takes them to recoup the initial investment has no bearing on their profit. It's accounting 101 and you don't seem to understand the basics.

Well that's why I have a high priced accountant. LOL
The only thing I really know anything about is sex, drugs and rock and roll!

:banana:GFYBand:rasta

interesting bump..

The sordid history of that domain could make an interesting documentary.

Domain names are sure expensive-- aren't they?
