PerezHilton.com received an intent to buy note for $20 big ones.
Could this be the kind of news we need in order to stimulate the ‘bad economy’ ?
Apparently, a letter of intent has been presented to the owner of the celebrity gossip web site, PerezHilton.com
According to Gawker:
The purchasing parties – Avid Life Media, the owner of sites including HotorNot.com and Ashley Madison, has partnered with two prominent gossip bloggers to put in a $20 million bid to acquire PerezHilton.com.
This offer, if it follows through, would make the sale of PerezHilton.com the biggest ever for a domain name & assorted content, forcing the owners of Sex.com into instant depression.
The traffic index of PerezHilton.com is 574 according to Alexa.
This is an insanely large amount of daily traffic for a web site that is simply a canvas for posting celebrity rumors and ridiculing celebrity pictures by drawing fake semen stains on their faces.
no it wouldn’t…yellowpages.com?…business.com?…just to name two.
These were not web sites (domains + content) but full fledged businesses.
I found it interesting that they were likely going to “forward” the domain to a new site…
Did you see the Alexa ranking? Traffic is insane (more than Chatroulette!)
I just regged PariszHilton.com.
I’ll sell it for 10 kilos of Greek potatoes. 🙂
Tricolorro, I like hybrid jokes 😀 That was a good one.

Hey Lucius,
What you really should appreciate is that I:
100% pure Americano,
totally ignorant
(like almost all other Americanos),
of the metric system ,
put my offer
in kilos
instead of pounds. 🙂
is this a done deal???
Good job tricolorro 😀
Frank – the deal is not done yet. It’s a “note of intent”.
IMHO the only reason it became popular / famous was the name’s confusion with that of Paris Hilton.
“…the only reason it became popular / famous was the name’s confusion with that of Paris Hilton.”
gogo,
That may be why someone would visit the site initially but would not account for return visits.
I have never visited the site but it’s very popular so there must be a reason beyond any
similarity with the Paris Hilton name. Just IMHO also. 🙂
