Seit Jahren wird im Internet immer wieder über die teuersten Domain-Verkäufe gesprochen. Sex.com steht mit $13.000.000 seit bereits November 2010 an erster Stelle. Doch auch zwei Poker-Domains befinden sich in den Top100.
Sex sells! Das war schon vor Jahrtausenden so und wird wahrscheinlich auch immer so bleiben. So ist sex.com die bislang teuerste Domain, die jemals verkauft wurde. Für $13.000.000 wurde sie von Clover Holdings Limited im November 2010 gekauft. Für $11.000.000 folgt hotels.com, die bereits im September 2001 verkauft wurde. Facebook kaufte 2010 fb.com für satte $8,5 Millionen US-Dollar und landete so auf Rang 5.
Auch der Gambling-Bereich liegt nach wie vor ganz weit oben. Mit Casino.com und slots.com sind zwei Gambling-Seiten in den Top Ten vertreten. Auch die Seite Poker.de braucht sich nicht zu verstecken, wurde sie im Juli 2007 für $957.937 verkauft. Einzig Poker.org war mit $1.000.000 knapp teurer. Käufer im Februar 2010 war Markus Sonermo.
Die beiden Poker-Seiten liegen unter anderem vor jobs.com, dollars.com, servers.com, aktien.de und drugs.com.
