Description:

Registering domain names has been and continues to be a big and lucrative business.

Sex.com sold for $12mm this past year to a private equity group. Vodka.com sold for $2mm and business.com sold for $7.5mm in 1999,. The list goes on. Last week, even a two word domain name "AntiSpyware.com" sold for $550,000. And this past year, a misspelled word: "Mortage.com" sold for $242,000.

There are several public companies that are in the domain name business and most of them are interesting buys here so its worth taking a look at a pseudo-domain name index.
