xerox.com good one

it's always nice to go through that list once in a while :)

LOL stargates on that list :P

damn thats some killer domains :)

Waiting for Internet Explorer to get developed ....

Yeah where msft at? hehe

They were too advanced at the time. They had more important things to do than worry about registering pesky little domain names ....

Haha.. i couldn't believe that either.

I used to own Applecomputer.com

here is the owner of toad.com. he is an interesting fellow.

More like several hundred grand...

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

how about old .org ?

Thats a good list, but i know someone who owns tons of 3 letter dot coms...his a baller

Not even, there are so many 1998 and earlier domains for sale that aren't worth even close to that.

For example, All4U.com and AllForYou.com both from 1997, combined I offered them for sale for like $7,700 (for both, not each). I tried to sell them for all of 2007 with not so much as one serious offer. And even more amazing is the fact that several "experts" felt with their evaluations, that allforyou.com alone was premium and should be worth around $10,000 wholesale. Actually look at this .... http://estibot.com/results.php?domain=AllForYou.com.

I had similar problems trying to sell BigHardCocks.com and LiveNakedMen.com, also domains regged in like 1997. Never found a buyer for either of those domains.

So ya, blah.

Age is important, especially when it comes to serious SEO but it isn't enough to greatly increase the value of your domain name. I wished it was though cause I would be sitting pretty right now. :)

pretty interesting list :thumbsup

I had a few domains registered back in 97 and 98, but they were not good ones.. I let them drop. They would not have been worth shit. My oldest one now was registered in 1999.

I also have 2 from 98, they aren't worth shit. Atleast not that kind of money.

I spam porn on them. haha

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

It's less about the age, and more about what the actual domain name is.

Didn't domains cost like $100 a domain per year back then?

Would be a small fortune just to keep it... and it was a major gamble back then... gopher was the closest thing to a WWW - there was no big reason why having a domain name was beneficial - no one had one and buying computers were prohibitively expensive.

Its fun to look back on it now..but I was around back then, running a 21 line BBS and thinking of the golden days... that was when the internet truly was free...as in speech...

I can't even remember how much domains cost back, but I do remember when the price went DOWN to $35 a year per domain.

For years we all paid $35 a year, no matter how crappy they treated us or what mistakes they may have made. You paid that money and shut up about it, or you didn't have a domain name.

Luckily now that isn't the case. If you don't like Network Solutions you can go over to GoDaddy or the other 10 zillion places.

and to think they didnt get banthis.com ...suckers

hahah this is funny!

It's this kid Mike Rowe's website, man,
What are you,
Behind the times.. ? :helpme

And I never could get them to sell me ONE year
You wanted a dom you paid $70

I guess I was luckier than you were.

Just wanted to bump this up.

i own one of them now :)

Lol, I didn't even know domains existed back in 1985!!

eh why i dont have few of them in my pocket

to enjoy in life a little bit :)
