Why is that so valuable? I could have bought it for $3k 6 months ago, but passed (mistake it seems).

Speculation by the CVCV freaks.

Well it is a really nice brandable cvcv and zoho . com is becoming pretty popular, but i doubt this would get typo traffic from that...

Still a cool name :cool:

Fufo, pupo, jiko, kopo etc.... get the idea. All are silly sounding names that missed the dot com train of the late 90's. Nowadays it's not the domain that matters, it's the killer app behind it.

I was considering to buy it in DNF and thought it would go for at least $12,000 in sedo auction. The sold price is even lower than my GOYO.com sale ($9,000). The buyer got a steal.

Upstart ventures or sites would buy similar pronounceable non dictionary names since good domains are too expensive.

JoJo.com sold for over 30k(or around the mark) a few weeks back and ZoZo isn't as good and isn't a name but definitely powerful.

Zozo.com the word zozo means penis in Creolle in the Hatian language that is probably the buyer reason he might have a desire to make it into a haitan porn site. SO it is a 4 letter creolle dictionary I believe the domain could have sold for even more and zozo is used really com,mon in the creolle language. I know this is because I live in florida and I see numerous amounts of hatians using this word on a constant basis

even if it meant nothing,this is a GREAT buy. CVCV continue to outperform and are one of the safest investment IMO. I keep saying it, but it's all about that sexiness factor. :)

Duh, Zozo is a city in the game Final Fantasy 3 (or 6 in Japan). Clearly it's worth dropping 9 g's on!
