    IR.net

    Considering offers for IR.net / ir.net
    • IR has more than 120 different meanings according to http://acronyms.thefreedictionary.com/ir including Infrared, Iran, Investor Relations, Im Ruhestand (German: Retired), Information Revolution, Inland Revenue (UK IRS), Interracial, and lots more.
    • IR is the ISO country code and top-level domain of Iran. IR.net attracts more than 80,000 visitors per month who are mistyping the net.ir extension of that country.
    • IR = "go" (infinitive) in Spanish.
    • Some very large companies are using this acronym.
    • You could start your own 3rd level "Iranian country code" e.g. domain.ir.net
    Traffic: 83,400+ visitors per month ( >1 million per year). 99.63% pure type-ins... one of the most amazing traffic domains I've ever seen!

    Revenue: About $38 per day on Sedo Pro ( >$1,100 per month). Screenshot below:

    BIN $166,000 (12 year multiple)

    Payment by Escrow.com or Sedo Escrow. Buyer covers fees.

    Traffic test available at $40/day prepaid.

    Current best offer: $30,000. Also negotiating with several parties at a 5 year multiple level ($70,000+) so far.

    Traffic source
    Most of IR.net's visitors are simply mistyping _______.net.ir domains (the Iranian .net TLD) as _______.ir.net. According to Webalizer stats 99.63% of the traffic comes from type-ins.

    Due to its nature the traffic is very consistent at an average of 2,800 visitors per day. I expect that to double over the next decade (Internet penetration rate in Iran is currently at 27.50% of the population, up from 0.4% in late 2000.)

    Clarification about BIN
    Current BIN is only 12 years of revenue. There is solid interest at the 5 year multiple level, however I probably won't sell that low. As a premium LL .net domain with many different meanings, IR.net would be a $25k+ domain without any traffic whatsoever. Combined with the traffic and revenue, investors can acquire a unique top-quality gem that's very difficult to find on the market nowadays.

    Your best bet to sell this domain is probably sedo (even though sedo rips you off). This domain is worth too much to sell on a forum IMO.
