Have some fresh and cool service to share with WhizzBangsBlog. This time it is the biggest domain name sales database ever built. Highly valuable for all those into domain names and online brands. Check DNPric.es.
Currently the database has 315,461 sale records of 301,603 domain names totaling $1,135,277,224.00.
Not only you can lookup historic sales, the site also offers amazing stats section where you can fish for tonnes of interesting information.
Let's have a quick look on it from different angles.
1. TLDs
While .COM is still the king with more than half of the sales (this correlates with the number of domain names) other extensions are doing surprisingly well. For instance .ME, #9, topping even .tv and .co.
2. Brokers
Here we can narrow down the whole industry to five big players (Sedo, Moniker + SnapNames, GoDaddy+AfterNIC, TDNAM, NameJet, DomainNameSales), than another few dozens of boutiques.
3. Time
We can observe that overall average domain name prices are falling in the last few years. Especially those for .COM. And then, this year it started to improve.
4. Length
Interestingly, average prices for LLLLL names are higher than those for LLLL and LLL names. Average historic price for five letter domain names (LLLLL.***) is $6,060.81. That for LLLL is $3,641.76. And that for LLL is $5,653.34.
It looks like names that are too short but not ultra short (two characters) have somewhat less value than those of five characters. A paradox that intuitively I am still struggling to explain. Can you?
The longest known domain name sold is xn--private-krankenversicherung-fr-selbstndige-6sd16h.de a.k.a. private-krankenversicherung-für-selbständige.de. Well done Sedo!
