Sedo released their most recent list of ccTLD sales and two domain hacks top the list with w.TO selling for $53,000 USD followed by Insure.IT at $13,250 and lawsuit.US going for $4,750. Now I’m just guessing that these two are domain hacks but they sure look like it as w.TO is most likely going to [...]

This weekend I was searching for tours of San Francisco, I am headed up in a few weeks with a friend that hasn’t been there before and want to show them the city. I was pleasantly surprised to find SanFranciscoTours.us both advertising and enjoying first-page placement on Google. When I looked at the domain, and [...]

Hello and welcome to a brand new weekly segment here on ccTLD Investors – the weekly news spotlight. Each week we will put-together some of the top stories in the ccTLD world so you can catch-up on anything you might have missed. The exciting thing about ccTLDs is the incredible amount of opportunity and growth [...]

It has been my favorite ccTLD on the planet since 2007 and now I’m excited to say Neustar is taking it to the next level and promoting .US in a new campaign aimed at small businesses. Kickstart America is all about Small Businesses and how they can build their brands on .US. For many Small [...]

When most of us see a dash in a domain, we head for the hills and with good reason, in most TLDs a dash in the domain dramatically reduces the resale price. However, when it comes to .DE, it’s a whole different story. First, in case you didn’t know, in Germany .COM is not king [...]

I’ve said it before and I will happily say it again, in the world of ccTLDs, .DE is king, and based on last weeks sales, it doesn’t look like that is going to change anytime soon. Since I started this site I have been following ccTLD sales very closely and have consistently seen .DE take [...]

.DE has been hitting it out of the park this year (again) so it was no surprise to see Made.DE in the #1 spot in Sedo’s ccTLD sales last week. .ME has also been seeing some nice liquidity this year and last week was no exception with Movies.me going for $8,800 and Train.me fetching $8,200. [...]

Another exciting week of ccTLD sales over at Sedo with an interesting one leading the pack as k.to went for $40,000 USD. I’m fairly certain this is the first time a .TO domain has been in the #1 spot however as a very short and brandable name I’m not overly surprised. The ccTLD space has [...]

This week Afternic DLS gave ccTLD Investors something to get excited about announcing a new partnership with Russia’s first and largest registrar, RU-Center. This new partnership means that premium domains listed with Afternic will now be visible to people searching for domains through RU-Center. On top of that, they will also be offering their Instant [...]

Sedo had yet another great week of ccTLD Sales with Wiggle.ru taking the top spot at 12,000 EUR (~$15,500). This is one of the first times I’ve seen a .RU name in the top spot but I don’t think this is a sign that .RU is suddenly taking-over, but it certainly shows that the TLD [...]
