    Laon.com - Typo Sold for 500,000+

    Laon.com dropped at SnapNames.com - When the dust cleared just a few minutes ago, the name sold for $500,249.00

    What a deal, considering Loan.org sold for $105,500 little less than 2 weeks ago.....

      The Best part about this, is the guy who allowed the name to expire is going to be recieving a check for about $80,000!!!

      Probably has no clue about the money. He will most likely be pretty upset at himself for allowing the name to expire.

                      Can I ask how you know they are rarely confused?

                        I was trying to figure out what it was a typo for. Laon and loan I doubt are mixed up that often.

                          If you type fast or at a decent clip you can easily hit the a before the o. I do stuff like that all the time.

                                If laon.com went for 500k lian.com should go for 750k, easy.

                                    The typo is actually the price not the domain.

                                          Overture shows about 3000 searches... sounds like good value to me.

                                              Yep, keys don't need to be beside each other to get mixed up. Sometimes it's just the order.

                                                  The buyer is actually an adult domainer

                                                  High price but he can afford it to play on 10 years revenue or longer.

                                                      Because O is next to L I would think the typo would be not so common, especially if the person is a bad typer who does it slowly. Now good typers who type fast can make that mistake, however the stereotypical person who seeks a loan by typing loan.com it into a browser is probably a bad typer, then again they might be shitty spellers so that might be an advantage.

                                                          I thought this domain name would have fetched around $250,000 - but after considering what a fellow Domainers told me yesterday. We guessed that the domain name parked would bring in around $200 per day - it would take years at that rate to get a ROI - however durring that time the value of the domain name will probably increase - eventually one of the big Mortgage places will probably pick it up to direct traffic their way. Whats a few million to CountryWide?

NS then sends the domain name to auction at SnapNames. The original owner is then cut in for a piece of the sale. Ive been told it is between 10-20%.

                                                                            So, the guy who allowed the domain name to expire - (may not even realize it was valuable) will be recieving a check from NS for around $80,000 (was the estimate I heard).
                                                                            fck, I didn't know that - actually not a bad deal, since he would never've got the exposure w/o snapnames for that....
