Five New Domains Added  to Our Year-to-Date Top Domain Sales Chart 

With the third week of the 2012 domain sales data now in the books we have expanded our Year-to-Date Top Domain Sales Chart from 20 to 25 positions (on its way to an eventual 100). The five new domains added this week included two that reached the top ten; #4 Neomobile.com, sold for $58,500 at Sedo and #9 Yolo.com, sold for $29,000, also at Sedo. 

A new ccTLD also joined the elite list. Sedo sold #20 Wiggle.ru (Russian country code domain) for $15,600

Here is how the year's top sellers across all extensions currently stack up (new entries each week are highlighted in green):
