Major Newspaper Reports Domain Names Jump In Value.
The Telegraph reports:
Toys.com was sold for $5.1 million (£3.11 million) in March to the retailer Toys R Us, while Fly.com went for $1.76 million.
Toys.com has become the fourth most expensive domain name in history, according to the Domain Name Journal, a trade magazine.
Domain names are the addresses that every website needs to have a presence on the internet. It costs about £10 to register a new domain name and the owner of the address has to pay an annual registration fee to keep ownership of that name.
However, many companies and investors like to get their hands on addresses that have already been registered. And for that they have to turn to an auction house.
