Interesting to note that the high bid of the day went to alimony.com which was the second to last name to be auctioned, after most of the live bidders had left. Cemetaries.com the fourth highest priced name was also in the last five names of the live auction.
Both were late additions, and not on the original list published several days ago. Therefore they were not part of our analysis.

Own.Mobi proud seller-
I thought it did $22,500 though
Jeffrey Tonetti says
Jewel.Mobi available in the extended Auction with a $2,500 reserve-
admin says
Jeff
Congrats on the .mobi sale, best of the day for .mobi.
Sometimes its hard to tell where the sale price was vs. the next bid price. The auctioneer was very good but moved very quickly.
You should check the snapnames.com site for exact totals
Jeffrey Tonetti says
I regret not buying trading.mobi or goblins.Com, I thought they were both very good deals-
Tim Davids says
I think ComputerSystem.com was the best deal for the buyer in that bunch…
admin says
computersystem.com was a no reserve name.
Empedocles says
Thought that this made very good reading
Media Corp. buys Sport.co.uk
Published January 21, 2008 in Domain Names. 0 Comments
Media Corporation has acquired Sport.co.uk for £135,000. The company plans to develop the domain into a sports website with news and statistics. Justin Drummond, chief executive of Media Corporation, said:
The value of a top-tier domain name combined with a profitable advertising-driven business model was recently illustrated by the Group’s successful sale of Casino.co.uk for up to £3.625 million. We are aiming to replicate this success with Sport.co.uk as we continue to increase the scale and diversity of the Group’s Web Publishing business.
Buying generic domains, then increasing their value by developing and promoting them is a good strategy for investors who have enough funds available to acquire one- and two-word domains. Keyword domains have lots of revenue potential, so they should not be parked forever. In addition, developing a domain will put you in a better situation when negotiating the possible resale of that domain. It’s easier to develop a generic domain than a made-up name, because you usually start off with existing direct navigation traffic already. Owners of generic domain names also have a head start when it comes to search engine optimization, due to search engines often listing generic domains that contain the term the user is searching for higher than other domains without that keyword.
Media Corp. also owns other online ventures, including Gambling.com, CreditCardExpert.co.uk and FlightComparison.co.uk.
