DNForum – the top forum for domain professionals – can now boast the highest domain sale in recent memory, in a domainer forum.
The domain name, FreeDrive.com and its associated content, has just been sold for $30,000 to a domain investor from Australia.
In an era that looks down upon file-sharing web sites, such as MegaUpload, the sale surely carries potential risk; but every domain investment does.
The seller apparently breaks even, as he bought the domain for about $30k in 2006. FreeDrive.com gets 1.4 million unique visitors every year and comes with its own Facebook app.
Congratulations to both seller and buyer!
