Selling Domain Names

Can you make a living just selling domain names? BusinessWeek took a look at the business of buying and selling domain names recently.

During the early years of the Internet, there was furious competition for web site domain names, accompanied by lawsuits and huge sums paid for well-known names. Last year the buying and selling of Web site domains amounted to a $77 million enterprise, says a recent study by Sedo.com, an international company that offers domain transfer and escrow services. At any given time, Sedo lists 12 million to 15 million domains for sale…

Karen E. Klein looks at many aspects of the business. She says the days of million dollar one-word domain names are pretty much gone, but there are opportunities out there for shrewed investors.

It's an interesting look at the business.
