The domain name GamesForGirls.com is showing as having sold for $500,000 on Sedo.com.
Its currently on their front page of recent activity.
The domain currently gets over 43,000 visitors a month according to Compete.com
If so its a ton of dough for another gaming domain and 2011 as predicted is starting to look like a record setter for domain sales.
Gnanes says
They also got ggg.com. I wonder if it was included as well.
My little niece plays games on there.
MQJ says
Keeping stats on mind, I say it was a good deal for both………
BullS says
Yup– games are important part of our lives now. Hell with doing real work
Thank god I have onlinegamings dot com
Josh says
I dunno if Id call this a pure name trade.
btw ggg was bought fairly cheap a couple years back if I recall.

@Landon,
Do you get along with anyone? Every blog I read seems to include you insulting and/or arguing with someone.
domain expert says
Domainer’s need to be aware this was a 3 WORD DOMAIN not a one word. Domains have a lot of value if they convey the right business message. Don’t just think in terms of one word when investing
Jamie says
MHB, We are thinking a like today 🙂 I got you by 7 minutes on the .co auction results and you got me by 5 minutes on this post 😉
This sale is similar to the CookingGames.com sale for $350K. High search volumes for both but GamesForGirls.com gets more.. like double more!
Landon White says
@TeddyK
YES, Teddy
I get along with you in many ways,
because you seem so nice and are a decent citizen
who does not shill for .Co and is not cheese’s friend!
Have a Nice Day!

should we enter the adult domains’ market to make money?
Domo Sapiens says
I seen a trend where “Small and Medium developers” love this type of domains
long tail /compound words with robust “exact searches” = Gold Mine… in the right hands of course.
CTR’s for long tail domains (Compound words) …are more on the mark , traffic easier to service.
eg: Links.com vs GolfLinks.com
The ones that are “small category or niche defining” are killer domains …
“Know how” is more important than the domain itself (yet part of the know-how is having a great domain…if that makes sense) and as a” rule of thumb ‘” domainers make for terrible domainers and viceversa ” otherwise there would be a lot more
Millionaire ‘ domainers.
Developing requires actual work , patience there is no short-cuts nor quick rewards as in domaining.
Uzoma says
I posted last week that I own a lot of “FOR” domains:
example
websiteforsex.com
websiteforsports
…and virtually website for any product, and people keep laffing about it. The truth is that if you develop any of these babies, it is just as good as any premium.
TeddyK says
Uzoma,
You’re right. Absolutely right.
Takes money and time though – good luck.
Andy Booth says
They should really be buying my Games4Girls.com and GamesforGirls.net domains as well… I wanted GamesForGirls.com to compliment the number — significant traffic and parking revenue too.
BullS says
What the hell are you guys talking about me?
There is only one BullS and it links to my site.
who is london white?
domains says
@Andy agree.
They should also buy franks GamesForGirl.com

Looks like Gamesforgirls.com is being held at Sedo transfer services. The landing page is still on NetIncome ventures, which is Frank Schilling’ buddy, Garry Chernoff. Very nice sale and a great keyword domain!
