Sex.com Earns Official Title: "Most Expensive Internet Address Domain Name"
Sedo, the online domain specialist, today announced that its recent brokerage of Sex.com has earned the Guinness World Record⢠for âmost expensive internet address domain name.â Sex.com was sold for $13 million on November 17, 2010.
Sedo, which celebrated its milestone 10-year anniversary on February 12, has grown to be a trusted advisor in the domain industry. As the worldâs largest domain name marketplace, Sedo has brokered over $400 million worth of domain names including a number of high-profile, seven-figure transactions for premium domains such as Vodka.com, Pizza.com and Russia.com.
âThe sale of Sex.com was truly a team effort. We spent about two years with the domain establishing the relationship, researching and finding the right buyer and managing the domainâs transfer,â said Kathy Nielsen, director of sales at Sedo. âWeâre honored that Sedo was trusted with such a high-value and high-profile sale, and weâre ecstatic that it is now being recognized by Guinness World Records as a record-breaking price.â
âWith a prominent sale like Sex.com, the domain transfer process can be incredibly complicated,â said Jeremiah Johnston, chief operating officer and global counsel at Sedo. âBut what makes Sedo unparalleled in the industry is that we work just as closely with domains of any size â to expedite and simplify the transaction, as well as eliminate unnecessary risks for both the seller and new owner.â
