.XXX? Videoporno.com Sells for $17K on Sedo.com

March 22, 2011 by Michael Berkens

Just days after the green light was given to the .XXX extension the domain name Videoporno.com sold on Sedo.com for $17,000

The domain which has an Alexa Rank of 3.3 Million is an indication that there is still plenty of interest in adult .com’s  despite the looming .XXX extension.

Over at Worldwidemedia we have a pending sale which will be under an NDA, in the six figures for a set of adult domains as well.

    .com will always be the preferred choice of adult industry operators, because they know that if they use .xxx, their industry will become a ghetto. That’s how they’ve been (and will be) protesting.

    I agree with Joe’s comment, but also because if you currently type a sexual term or phrase into Google, it does not come up with any suggested results until you hit the search button, that is, they are temporarily blocked.

    Any domain with a .xxx extension would therefore be instantly recognised by Google’s system as something that needs blocking, either momentarily or permanently, even if the domain name itself is not an immediately recognisable porn word or phrase. In that respect, a .com, .net etc would be more beneficial as an adult site.

    Depends if you have children or not.
