Ramp knows about the value of exceptional domain names. The company began on TryRamp.com and later upgraded to its brand matching Ramp.com domain name.
A couple of weeks ago, DomainNames.com, a platform operated by GoDaddy that specializes in the sale of high value domain names, announced that Router.com had been sold. GoDaddy shared that the buyer was represented by Lumis in the deal.
A UDRP was filed against the 4 letter RFPG.com domain name at the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). According to NameBio, RFPG.com was sold via GoDaddy for $585 on July 23rd of this year – less than one month ago. I believe this domain name was sold in an expiry auction at GoDaddy Auctions.
Years ago when I told my physician what I do for a living, he referenced an old skit on Saturday Night Live. In the 1999 SNL skit, there was a parody of an investment firm called Dillon Edwards. The company waited so long to get online that every decent domain name was taken, leaving it with only ClownPenis.Fart to use for its website.
There is no .Fart domain name extension right now, so ClownPenis.Fart does not resolve to anything. Well, that might change.
I decided to break up some Summer doldrums by doing outbound marketing to sell one of my domain names. I picked one that I’ve owned for a while and hasn’t had any inbound inquiries. It was also a domain name that had several upgrade targets.
The first company I messaged showed interest in buying the domain name. The person’s first and only question was along the lines of ‘how do I know you own the domain name and aren’t trying to scam me?‘
This is a great question and one that is obvious when doing outbound marketing to sell a domain name. Unfortunately, it’s not always simple to answer the question in a definitive way.
I saw a .ai auction on Namecheap Market, but by the time I saw it, the bidding had already climbed beyond what I was willing to spend to buy it. The auction for Team.ai closed yesterday with a high bid of $136,500. This auction was noted today on X by NameBio.
There were nearly 100 bids from 14 bidders in this auction. When hovering over the winning bidder’s username, it said the user joined in March of 2025 but has not won an auction yet. The runner up was a Gold level bidder who has won 4 auctions worth more than $15k. Three bidders placed six figure bids in the auction. I am unsure if the auction transacted yet.
I received a suspicious looking email yesterday, and I want to share some details. The email subject was “Atom x Embrace.com,” and it came from an email address using a .CO domain name that does not appear to be associated with the Atom.com platform.
Within the email, it had the following messaging:
“I’m Will from Atom. We run a marketplace and naming platform with 400,000+ brandable domains, plus appraisal, brokerage, and naming services.”
