Sedo - now seemingly irrelevant

Brassneck · Oct 25, 2013

Doing my quartely VAT accounts. For the first time since 2004 I have no Sedo payments to account for. Just 1 domain sale all year and I've nothing worthwhile parked any more. Last year I still managed to sell 22 domains on Sedo and even that was well down on previous years.

And now that Afternic belongs to Godaddy, I think you can expect to see Sedo fade further. Their founders got out at the right time, clearly...

Edwin - I used to have my .uk domains on Afternic a while back. Is it worthwhile to list there?

Cheers

No idea. I was talking more generally - in the .com/TLD space Godaddy is the 8,000 pound gorilla, so having Afternic "in house" is a massive poke in the eye to Sedo and can only have negative consequences for them.
