The sale of Intelligence.xyz for $150,000 dollars by Swetha Yenugula shows how certain keywords attract buyers regardless of TLD.
Swetha registered the domain in 2019, at a time when millions of .XYZ domains dropped. Along with others became the seed of Swetha’s portfolio which was, in retrospect, a brilliant moment in domain investing as she has been selling them for tens of thousands of dollars.
At the .XYZ launch in 2014, Intelligence.xyz had a different registrant, who hand-registered it on June 6, 2014 for the sum of $11.06 dollars.
Prateek B. came forward on LinkedIn to congratulate Swetha about her sale and to present a few words of acknowledgement and wisdom:
I once held Intelligence.xyz in my portfolio. Recently, it sold for $150,000 a big congratulations to Swetha Yenugula on that achievement.
Do I wish I still had it? Of course. But this is the nature of the domain industry: patience, vision, and sometimes letting go. Every domain has its journey, and every investor has their lessons.
No regrets just respect for the market, the players, and the power of the right keyword at the right time.
Domains are digital real estate, and patience is always key.
In 2015, during an early stage of his domaining career, Prateek parted with a portfolio of premium .xyz domains in a bulk sale on Flippa. Among the names was Offer.xyz, along with several others that today would be considered highly valuable. At the time, however, his inexperience and hesitation led him to panic, ultimately selling the assets at a near loss.
Looking back, it was part of his learning curve, as those early mistakes taught him the importance of patience and conviction in the domain business.
