looks like some crazy prices on a lot of them. makes me wish i would of submitted a few.

Wow what a bunch of good domains

wow, high marks for some of those... i wonder if any who purchased domains w/ the word "teen" in them for high $$ will find themselves regretting it in the near future though..?

wow some amazing domains on the list. Its interesting to see what is sold for high dollars and what is not. Seems so arbitrary.

U think that's too much?

I have BrandyTalore.com for sale, make an offer, has type ins and traffic flow already.

Yes. Well, maybe. If you look at the other names which sold for $XX,XXX I think it was expensive. Say the following out loud:

Hand Job
Kinky Sex
Gay Pride
Inter Racial Sex

The last one almost seems clinical and scientific. It doesn't flow which makes me doubt that you could create a whole identity around interracialsex.com (note the "rr" next to each other, another problem). But if the buyer was purchasing to protect a similar site or extend an existing brand maybe it's worth it. IMO there were lots of great deals had at the auction, but this wasn't one of them.

Searches done in December 2006
Count Search Term
99570 interracial sex

Those are pretty good overture numbers though right? Not as good as hand job, but way better than kinky sex. Plus it's my biggest niche by far...

In comparison to an equal entity, interracial.com was over-priced relative to handjob.com and kinkysex.com, but dig is an already developed end-user for the traffic of interracialsex.com. The domain is worth more to him than others, and his time horizon for payback is shorter. So while over-priced, it's not as bad as it looks. Sorry, dig. Still an awesome domain and it's yours!

If nothing else congrats for having the money to drop on a name like that. I am sure you will do good with it.

I would so buy behind.com. I wonder who won that so I can see if I can buy it off them for at least $15k - 20k.

I suspect, even though I have no numbers handy to back me up, that interracial traffic as a niche is more valuable than most other niche traffic when handled correctly. It has the retention of a microniche and maybe that contributes to the fact that interracial domains tend to cost more than other niche domains with similar or greater numbers. Or maybe I'm rationalizing hahaha

Either way you sound like you know what you're talking about. I should post some domains up and let you grade them ;)

I noticed tonight at the auction that any decent two word domain with the keyword 'amateur' in it did very well. In retrospect I should have listed a bunch of domains in this auction myself... oh well there's always next year.

People got hosed......

Amen, bro :(

You still in vegas? Let's play some cards man!

I have a 10 seat poker table at my place, I should try to get a game together tomorrow, 1k entry, winner takes it all!

doublepost!

Not sure where you get that from. Overall looks like a lot of solid deals and a few huge bargains. Only a few names look overpriced, and with the right plan/promotion they might still pay back their price in a reasonable time.

Prediction: In 2 years those who were outbid will look back at the prices and wonder how they could have passed up those names at those prices. :2 cents:

not sure what exact bargains you saw there

I own a few (not really many though) good adult typeins and I'd love if your prediction was true (escpecially since I tend to buy names below market prices).

However, I see no reason for the increase of prices of adult domains.

As branding is concerned, you can brand almost any name.

As for typein traffic, that's quite stable, but the overall conversions in adult went significantly down compared to 7 or so years ago (today often the best monetisation technique is domain parking).
And at the same time the price of such typeins domains significantly increased.

So personally I don't see much potential for a further increase anymore.

Not to mention that there's again the risk of ICANN giving the 'green light' to the .XXX domains, which - if implemented - even as voluntary - could slowly gain some popularity and decrease the overall value of adult "dot com" (and also their typein traffic ).

Hi Polish,

I agree that ICANN and .xxx and lower PPC payouts are a potential threat, but adult names have always have a higher risk threshold and therefore sell for smaller multiples.

It's also true that just about any name can be branded, but some are easier to brand than others. Compare branding greatSexForYouNow.info with HandJobs.com. Which *identity* is going to stick better in user's minds?

My picks for the best bargains:

gaypride.com $60k (could go adult or mainstream as in Out Magazine or similar. Probably could sell 1k subscriptions/month)
behind.com $13k (monster of a name. Extremely memorable)
anal.org $5.5k (extrodinary .org)
FuneralParlor.com $7k (probably $50/click on PPC, bad idea to sell at Adult auction IMO)

BTW here are some names which got bids but DID NOT MEET RESERVE:

goodgirls.com - bids at 25K min. no higher bids.
stripshows.com - bids up to 18K
virgins.mobi - bids up to 17K
promqueen.com - bids up to 17K
amateuranalsex.com - bids up to 5K
sexcash.com - bids up to 50K
sucked.com - bids up to 12K
catholicschoolgirls.com - bids up to 20K
sexshows.com - bids up to 40K
penissize.com - bids up to 30K
girlsonly.com - bids up to 41K
cute.com - bids up to 400K
stripping.com - bids up to 75K
limousineservice.com - bids up to 45K
ussenate.com - bids up to 41K
fetish.com - bids up to 600K
privacy.com - bids up to 700K

YARGH! You did well. You'll get it back, and much more. :thumbsup

That ussenate.com has me thinking that perhaps my following ones I own might possibly be of some (substitute?) interest to those who did bid up to the price up to $41K:

SENATEBJ.COM
SENATEBUREAUCRACY.COM
SENATEMILF.COM
SENATESEX.COM

Although my four above domains are not in my 242 domains that are in the ongoing silent auction, AMERICANBUREAUCRACY.COM is in the silent auction.

God Damn, makes me wonder what i can get for invoice.mobi

I don't want to act like the GFY's domain expert, but in my opinion, .mobis are definitely overhyped.

I don't like those .mobis too

Over-hyped doesn't begin to describe it.

The $200k flowers.mobi sale started the price increase phase, but that is a very specific domain tailored for a very special act most of us men have had to do in our lives, and it's still a big gamble. That one has a chance, even at that price. Most other .mobi domains are worthless, unless they meet similar characteristics of last minute mobile phone use.

Taking a look at the example above, what urgency is there to get an invoice on your mobile phone? The answer is "not much", making invoice.mobi relatively worthless. Sorry.

Now let the .mobi buzzards circle.
