The new weekly domain sales report is out at DNJournal.com. The biggest .co.uk sale ever reported heads are new Top 20 chart. It is also the first 7-figure domain sale reported this year. The leader board also includes a pair of six-figure sales. A 2-letter .org has the top spot on the Global Contenders chart. That British domain is the top country code of course. The runner-up was a 2-letter Canadian (.ca) domain that hit five figures. You can get all of the details here: http://www.dnjournal.com/domainsales.htm

cruises.co.uk reached a good price. Have seen other private, high 6-figure and one other 7 figure (if USD) .co.uk sale this year. Expect to see more published prices in this region in 2008, particularly for top UK generics.

So what number in sales is .co.uk. I said a while back that that was strong TLD, which seems to be quite true. Some thought it was less than .info. It would seem that it's number 2 or 3, after .com, and probably .net.

.co.uk is certainly the world's most valuable cctld, however in terms of reported sales volume it's still a long way behind .de. However this is attributable to cultural differences - people in the UK like to keep quiet about sales.

Here are some stats from 2007 which show the top cctlds as a % of all worldwide reported domain sales:

.de had around 18% of sales (4954 reported sales)
.eu had 6% (1598 reported sales)
.co.uk had 3% (just 832 reported sales)
