DomainFest Auction Results

Moniker's DomainFEST Auction ended last week and made a fair amount of money for several hundred domaineers.

The big money went for Wife.com at a cool $100,000. Also RodeoDrive.com for $60,000, ResortHotels.com and Blooms.com each at $58,830, FreeWireless.com at $50,000, and ConsumerElectronics.com at $45,000.

Lots of quick profits were made as folks who bought domains for $10 sold them for around $5,000 each. Examples: AlabamaForeclosures.com, Devotion.com, CustomizedHomes.com and PartyBoat.com, to name a few.

Lesson to be learned from these results: Almost any word or combination of words can produce quick profits for the creative domaineer.
