Archive.org - Sedo

[rawkinrich]

Someone care to ellaborate? The first sedo.com in 2000 was about domain names, then for about 3 years it was other things.. Then in late 2003/2004 it was Sedo.com as we know it?

I always thought Sedo bought the name not so long ago as it were there brand? :huh:

Methinks there are rogue data compressions schemes at Archive.org are to blame. I doubt the previous owner of sedo.com (Mr. Sedo) simply chose to copy the sedo.de pages all that time.

Sedo started with sedo.de, other extensions have been added later

Very good sale from the original owners, thier site was rubbish and I don't think the word or acronym means anything before the sedo brand.
