ccTLDInvestors.com: Sedo had another hot week of ccTLD sales led by Frage.DE for $35,000 EUR (~$49,000 USD). Frage means “Question” in German so you can think of this as the equivalent of Question.com selling, albeit for a bit lower price than Question.com would sell for. Both .DE and .UK were in the spotlight last week as

by Morgan Linton on Oct.25, 2011, under News
ccTLDInvestors.com: This week Sedo’s ccTLD sales maxed-out with the $7,000 sale of eParking.co. While this is a low high-sale of the week, it’s a nice price for a brandable .CO domain like eParking. I am more surprised to see Meristation.mx sell for $6,000, a solid sale in the .MX space and another good sign that there

ccTLDInvestors.com: As you may already know, Asia is the largest Internet marketplace in the world. However, only 20% of the market is online and that number is expected to grow dramatically over the next five years. That being said, it’s important to realize that 20% penetration still means 800 million users online, more than twice the

.ME Sales Heating-Up as Scan.me Sell for $20,000 on Sedo
by Morgan Linton on Aug.16, 2011, under News
ccTLDInvestors.com: .ME sales are hot right now so I wasn’t surprised to see that Scan.me took the #1 spot in Sedo’s ccTLD Sales list this week. It is clear that more and more brands are starting to find .ME a great extension for branding and I’d imagine that Scan.me probably went to one of the big
