Afternic highlighted a year-over-year domain name sales analysis shared by one of its sellers. What makes this analysis particularly compelling is the scale and focus of the seller’s portfolio. The seller reportedly has more than 20,000 four-letter .com domain names (LLLL.com) listed for sale at Afternic, and the portfolio consists exclusively of this single domain name category.
Most domain investors I know hold more diversified domain name portfolios. They may own some LLLL.com domain names, but those are typically mixed in with one-word .coms, two-word domain names, brandable domain names, and/or domain names in non-.com extensions. That kind of diversification can make it difficult to isolate performance trends for a specific domain name class like LLLL.coms.
