"Who on earth would pay $1 million for hell?"

http://focused.org/showthread.php?t=588

Who on earth would pay $1m for hell.com???? I would of atleast got a 2-3 char domain, and a decent one.

 

I'm thinking massive religious organization or equally massive marketing group. Who knows.

 

The devil...

 

...or no one. I thought someone bought it but according to the article no one did.

 

It could probably be marketed as a very popular cult website, but I don't think its worth 1m

 

I'm not surprised lol.

 

curious what will become of it..

Lots of other names I would have picked before that one though..

 

It has a pr6 already. Not a million, but certainly worth a good amount. Very marketable on many levels.

Edit: Damn. I posted in a thread whose only reason is a link to the OP's own site. Damn.

 

I don't see any good ways Hell.com can be used. Maybe for a movie series? I don't know lol.

 

I'm wondering whether domains will retain there value like they have. The reason being people that are new to the internet and have not been around it for 10+ years like myself, don't really know that .com was the main domain symbolic of most domains. Now even large companies don't always use the .com address. So in seeing this in 10 years from now will people type in the .com thinking that is the best one for the item they are looking for. When we have .co.nz .com.au .co.uk etc; will people just not care that it is .com and just type the domain thinking that it is an equally important domain.

The registered and developed domains that are out there like tennis.com will of course be worth money because they have a branded built business.

Basically to sum up, I find new internet users don't care that it is .com. Therefore making it of less worth down the track.

of course this could be wrong and like most things in life hell.com probably will sell fore 50mil in 10 years time.

 

The marketing will be easy - what is a more popular place to tell someone to go?

"Go to Hell!"

 

May be Hollywood would by it.
A lot of movies they make have something to do with that word.LOL

 

Valuable or crap, today people believe being the owner of "premium" domains that worth thousand times less that they might think.

 

Hell.com could've sold for $1MM but I think the reserve was over $2MM.

 

Hmmm... maybe I'll hold on to doomedtohell.com after all.

 

Lol. Nice one.

I was looking fora a domain similar to hell.com but I can't afford 1 mil just for a domain name

p.l.u.r.

 

its sold for 6 million right?i couldnt believe it when i saw this :O

 

Hell.com was owned by a group seemingly offering very high-profile blackhat information services, which were well-hidden from the average surfer

 

Go to hell.... dot com

Awesome

 

Someone that thinks that is cheaper than trying to purchase 6.5 billion souls.
