Just to clarify this information. Fabulous owns 430,000 domains and they are pulling in $5 million in revenue? That's only $12 per year per domain. That seems too low really.

Yes, but in reality 79,000 domains produce 94% of that revenue. 94% of $5m is $4.7m, divided by 79,000 equals an average income of about $59.50 per domain. Not brilliant, but it all adds up I guess.
