Domain Names Continue to Defy Gravity with 8 Six-Figure Sales Leading a Barrage of Big Deals at the Top of Our Latest Chart 

As a writer I'm not supposed to run out of adjectives, but the current red hot domain aftermarket may exhaust my supply. The superlatives got a very vigorous workout this time around the track with enough five and six--figure sales to fill three Top 20 Charts and still have some left over.

Before we get to the specifics of what came in over the past two weeks, here's some data for you. In the first half of 2024, about 2,300 transactions of $1,000 or more were reported to us. In the recently concluded first half of 2025 the number of transactions shot up by 30% to more than 3,000. The average value of those 2024

transactions was $13,434. In 1H-2025, the average jumped 21% to $16,233. But here's the clincher. In 1H-2024 the total $ volume of reported sales was $30.9 million. In 1H-2025 volume rocketed to $48.7 million, a 58% surge. 

The sales crescendo has grown even louder since our last bi-weekly report with eight newly reported 6-figure sales leading the way on our latest all-extension Top 20 Sales Chart. Sedo blew the roof off the place in posting the three highest ones. The headliner was one of the biggest German ccTLD sales of all time - Ferienhaus.de ("holiday home" in German) - at  €357,000 ($421,260). Sedo's veteran Senior Sales Consultant Frank Tillmans steered that one to victory lane. Frank's Sedo colleague, Mark "Mr. Premium" Ghoriafi, filled the #2 slot with yet another win in a long string of 2025 triumphs for him in Footage.com at $300,000 (Mark represented the seller in this transaction).  Having thus notched the top ccTLD sale and the top .com sale, Sedo completed a rare trifecta by posting the biggest non .com gTLD sale as well, banking $250,000 for Crypto.bot.

 

The other big storyline is the ongoing boom in AI sales - both in the form of .ai domains and .coms with AI serving as the main keyword. The latter was the case with a $238,000 sale of #4 AITools.com brokered by a long-time friend of ours, George Hong at Guta.com. .ai domains picked up the baton from there with a $220,000 sale of #5 Sim.ai by Andy Booth (Booth.com), one of the first big players to recognize the .ai opportunity and make a significant investment them. .ai ended up with eight chart entries overall, six of those put up by .ai powerhouse Namecheap.

 

After breaking out of a long quiet stretch in our last report, the non .com gTLDs continued to ascend with another big outing that featured five charted sales, including a second one in six figures - #8 Turtle.xyz at $106,000 and a pair of nice sales in the increasingly popular .now TLD - Watch.now at $79,888 and Love.now at $79,499. Top.Domains closed both of those through Sedo MLS partners. .Now is one of two new gTLDS owned by Amazon that were just launched last fall (the other being .deal).

Elsewhere, over the past few weeks, Saw.com has revealed five six-figure sales that they closed in 2021 - Arbitrage.com at $350,000, Thoughtful.com and Joyy.com at $150,000 each, Licium.com at $140,000 and Kevel.com at $100,000. The first four were big enough to add to the 2021 Top 100 Chart in our Domain Sales Archive. The addition of those sales pushed the minimum price to make that chart up to $125,000 from $120,000, which was already an all-time record minimum. We saw an enormous domain sales boom that year but unfortunately it came in reaction to a terrible event - the global Covid pandemic that forced so many businesses to get online (or strengthen their online presence) in order to survive.

Now back to the present and  how all of the leaders stacked up for the two weeks ending Sunday, July 20, 2025

Keep in mind that these are the highest value cash only sales that have been reported to us in the past two weeks. This column is meant to be an educational tool, not a complete list documenting ALL high value domain sales. Such a list is impossible to produce because many sales are kept private at the insistence of buyers, sellers or both.

Country Codes

It was party time for the ccTLDs again. The .ai domains continued to run wild, piling up 9 of the top 10 entries on our latest Country Code Top 20 Sales Chart. However, the biggest blow was landed by #1 Ferienhaus.de ("holiday home" in German) with that huge $421,260 sale at Sedo. That is the second biggest country code sale of the year to date, trailing only the $600,000 sale of Cloud.ai. 

Since we show all sales of five figures or more in the all extension section, the impressive ccTLD Top 20 will look very familiar this week. That's because every name on the chart but one reached at least five figures, earning them a spot in the top part of the report above. The one name that you haven't seen yet is Sedo's $8,850 sale of #20 Alfred.de

Here is how the top ccTLDs lined up  for the two weeks ending Sunday, July 20, 2025:

Non .com gTLDs

Seven solid five-figure sales followed (all of which you saw in the all extension section above). The highest sale on our latest Non .Com Top 20 Sales Chart that you haven't seen yet is Sedo's $9,888 sale of #10 Trady.xyz at $9,888.
