More .cm domains sell at auction

The end of the week is finally here, but that hasn’t stopped a number of premium .cm domains from selling. The top seller is freeporn.cm, which netted £8,397, or $13,700.

Passion.cm also sold for $3,625 and webcams.cm for $2,585. Other notable auctions include:

• tube.cm- $8,700
• cancer.cm- $7,200
• 28.cm- $6,100
• web.cm- $5,099
• restaurant.cm – $3,220

Are .cm domains a good long-term investment? In my opinion, no. The only force driving these sales is the possibility of receiving type-in traffic from .com domains. While this might create revenue in the short term, the success of a .cm depends exclusively on the success of its corresponding .com name. Not to mention that fewer and fewer people are using domains to navigate to sites, opting to query search engines instead.
