Ridiculous Domain ROI (Return on Investment)
October 14, 2007
I have close to 100 domains but have never sold one before.
That changed last week when I sold my first domain through Sedo! (Actually, the transfer is still in progress, but Sedo has the money.)
The week before I received an offer on a .mobi I bought one year ago. The buyer actually wanted to buy the singular and plural version of the domain, but they offered less money for the plural.
If you get an offer through Sedo, they allow you to take the domain to auction using the offer as a starting point. If no one else bids, then the person that makes the original offer is still obligated to make the purchase. That’s what happened. I took it to auction but no one else bid.
Here’s the crazy part.
The ROI is 915%. I paid $78 one year ago. And will get $792 (after paying Sedo 10%).
I wish I had a hundred of these…
