Default gays.com sold for 500k

gays.com sold on Sedo for 500.000 US-Dollar to Julius and David Dreyer from Germany.

The new owners said to Sedo that they want to build a new Gay-Portal with this Domain. (Aint that the perfect domain for it )

Hi there,

If I had that money I would of definitely purchased that website and opened a gay community portal, think how much money that would make you! It is a dictionary word, and it's a top end domain extension, jeez 500k was a little cheap for it if you ask me...good buy guys.


Regards,
Kieran Taylor.

I would say that's a fairly realistic price. Surely the ideal domain would be just gay.com (singular). I guess that's worth a lot more.

as truely said, some domains are sold just cause they mean to be sold away.

I wish i make a better site rather than just a domain.

And yes, I am a straight, so better make a site straights.com LOL

They must have some big plans for the site to be willing to spend $500K on a domain name!

Not really, it is obviously worth more than that, and is almost guaranteed great revenue. If they spent half a million on a domain, they obviously know what they are doing .

Oh and please don't swear buddy, even if it is mild, they're children in this forum that's all...thanks .

I never open the link. Is it an adult site? If it is an adult site im sure it would double its 500k in no time.

Maybe the owners have alternative interests.

500k is a nice price, surely you can buy some nice dinners of it.
