NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The Internet domain name Hell.com failed to be bought via a live auction Friday, which organizers had hoped would bring bids of more than $1 million.

Another live auction will not take place until a year from now. However, interested buyers will have the opportunity to grab hell.com before then in ongoing silent auction, according to Moniker.

Moniker is a unit of the brand and marketing company Seevast Corp.

Hell.com was founded by Kenneth Aronson, who described the domain as a private network "global think-tank" that he wanted to sell because of all the traffic receives and all the rumors the name generates.

"Branding experts said the name is recognized more than Coca-Cola," said Aronson. "It's so enigmatic and the person who buys it has the potential to make it a very big portal."

I think it was the opening ask for $2Million that made the bidders say "Hell NO".

Seriously, it WOULD have done well, had it been presented at any other time than the very end... when all the steam had left the event.

Sad to see it not do so well... Hopefully, it won't get another article about how domains are overpriced.

That would hurt even worse.
