OnlineDomain.com Domain Name News & Opinions
This is a list of the 13 most expensive New gTLD domain names that have been developed after being sold for more than $3,000 each.
The list does not include domains that are redirected but may include websites that migrated from a different domain name to a New gTLD.
For example PhysicalTherapy.nyc that was sold for $14,000 redirects to hptnyc.com. And of course the list does not include domains that are parked with ads, domains under construction or domain investor websites such as NewYork.Estate that was sold for $9,000.
I had to dig deep into my New gTLD sold domains database. I searched the top 300 New gTLD sales of domains that were sold for $3,000 and more. The list includes domains sold by the registry and in EAP. Unfortunately, although the 300 domain list includes domains sold by resellers, no domain of those has been developed so none is included in the list below.
Here are the 13 most expensive New gTLD domain names that have been developed so far:
- Coffee.Club $100,000 (paid over 10 years, registry sale)
- Eat.Club $20,000 (registry sale)
- KneeSurgery.Expert $12,500 (EAP Day 1)
- Liquid.Media $12,500 (EAP Day 1)
- Diet.Expert $7,500 (EAP Day 2, Premium)
- Miami.Condos $4,600 (EAP Day 2, Premium)
- Boot.Club $3,750 (registry sale)
- Design.Guru $3,000 (EAP Day 2)
- ezTaxi.Cab $3000 (EAP Day 2)
- Spanish.Academy $3000 (EAP Day 2, premium)
- Peach.Company $3000 (EAP Day 2)
- Seo.Agency $3000 (EAP Day 2, premium)
- Abi.reisen $3000 (EAP Day 2)
The interesting part will be the annual PREMIUM renewals on such domains.
Only diet.expert and miami.condos have premium renewals.
I would have thought seo.agency would have as well, great info.
You are right that is a premium too at $400. I missed it and I found another one. Thanks
Here are the premiums:
Diet.Expert $4,500
Miami.Condos $1,600
seo.agency $400
Spanish.Academy $150
I sold Thayer.Academy at the end of last year for $3000 my friend =)
Where are you selling these domains?
These are not my sales.
Check sold.domains for the top sales that also show the venue the domains where sold.
Most registries don’t charge premium renewal fees, its up to the registrars, so normally its the usual fee. It’s misinformation being banded about by the anti gTLD brigade.
Donuts, Rightside, Minds+Machines plus others are charging premium renewal fees for a lot of domain names.
It is not up to the registrars.
I meant the renewal price of a standard registration is up to the registrars.
OK, Not all of the registries are not charging premium renewal costs. Famous Four Media are not for example. There are a lot of registries. Premium renewal will hurt them. I doubt .Club is either or coffee.club payment terms aren’t going to work very well…
Ok but I still don’t understand this:
“Most registries don’t charge premium renewal fees, its up to the registrars, so normally its the usual fee. It’s misinformation being banded about by the anti gTLD brigade.”
Nobody said that the renewal fee is $4,500 when the wholesale registry price is $25. Registries are dictating the prices and registrars put a markup. This has been the same for years. There is no misinformation here.
Good research work, finding the most expensive new gTLDs, and listing them here. It is brilliant you included screenshots of their professional-looking homepages!
I like DeepLink.nyc but was probably registration fee.
Last offer for my premium domain ( food.agency ) in sedo was 48000$ but i want sell more than this.
Reality check, food agency, sounds to stale
this remembers me to the story of trade.domains
Exactly.
trade.domain nohow in not Similar food.agency. go on google and search food agency you can see all result.and if you want i can show offer screen shot.this doman have a specific customer,and on time will sell.

If it would be food.delivery yes, that one is a xxk
http://s7.postimg.org/pp7ptabnf/food_delivery.jpg
(sadly this one will never reach EAP5. so no issue for me to tell it here)
if you really got a good offer for food.agency. take the money.
About 739,000,000 results (0.47 seconds) all result in google
About 135,000,000 results (0.30 seconds) in the month
sure.when i desire sell that.
search for “food music”: About 1,510,000,000 results (0.40 seconds)
I am not saying google results are sensless but close to.
If you have an offer of $48000, I’d take it.
The minimum bid is still saying $45 though, so maybe you added some zeros?
Any government agency for standards inspection is going to use a “.gov” domain to show legitimacy and for continuity within the governments domain policy and I cant see a restaurant using it; as Robbie states, its stale.
If by some chance a restaurant does want that name, it will be some hipster start up, then they aren’t going to have 48k lying about to buy a domain.
Selling premium domains is hard work.
Just my two cents.
i don,t need to your opinion.because all you domain fixers are very similar to real estate fixer. because you want get free of charge. but i must say , i,m not a amateurish. so keep your thought for yourself. i sold too domains so far and in future will be determined for this domain.Meanwhile first bid for food agency was 3500k .
I’m glad you have sold two domains. well done, its not an easy thing to do.
I do business development for all of FFM’s gTLD registries: .download, .loan, .date, .accountant, .webcam, .trade, .bid, .faith, .charity, .racing, .win, .cricket, .science, .party, .men, .review
and I also price our premium stock, as you can see I have an almost infinite amount of domains. I do not want your domain for free, or at all, I have more than enough.
I was merely offering you advice as to how these things are actually valued, as you know, that’s what I do for a job.
Maybe you should go back to school and learn how to speak and print proper English. You have comma’s where apostrophes’ should be and visa-versa. If you can communicate better you might seem more educated. Maybe then you can close easier.
48k for food.agency and you want more? HAHAHAHA
ha ha haaaa, ,, when eat.club sold for 20k , coffee.club sold for 100k ,luxury.estate sold for 50k , it,s normal my domain to be have 48k offer.you can go on sedo and check my domain have higher offer among gtld domains.
yap ha ha ha
Those domains actually make sense though. coffee.club, night.club, sports.club, eat.club, seal.club(lol)…they all work as memorable succinct descriptions of the sites’ content.
Their value comes from that and the advantage of exact match domain searches. Food agency doesn’t. People may search “food standards agency”, but until they make a worldwide body to manage food standards, its non locationally specific.
when you search food agency . in down page you can see all req. for example food agency jobs . it is not related food standard agency. !!!!
if be with your look , you want just your domain be high price. but i don,t need to your opinion.
when luxury.estate sold no one don,t think that domain be 50k . yess in future we will see ,my value range.
Miami.Condos sounds like a nice name but if I search for “Miami condos” at Google and Bing the site does not even appear in the first few pages of search results. Meanwhile my Spanish sites CondominioMiami.com & CondominiosMiamiBeach.com rank on page one of Bing/Yahoo for those exact phrases (admittedly low search volume but more than 60% of MiamiDade is Latino).
Interesting that the most expensive New G is not only an exact match to a TM, but the content on the site is exact or similar to the TM…..This is a recipe for not only a UDRP, but a
much larger case….I am really surprised the domain industry has embraced this type of abuse….Well, not really surprised, just disappointed….
Rule #1 to Domain Developers – If the full domain or parts of the domain are a TradeMark, make damn sure the content does not match the TM as well…..
This is more of a business problem than a strict domain name industry problem.
But there have been a history of a lot of similar named or even exact match businesses.
Some went to court and some coexisted.
“This is more of a business problem than a strict domain name industry problem”………………….I respectfully disagree, this is a domain industry problem, as this domain is highly publicized and marketed as legitimate use within the domain industry…I will refer to Rule #1 again..
Rule #1 to Domain Developers – If the full domain or parts of the domain are a TradeMark, make damn sure the content does not match the TM as well…..
I just think that when a domain name is developed it ends being a domain investor property but a real business with different problems.
e.g. I think that a UDRP or URS would fail in this case.
A court case would be entirely different.
But if you are referring to the US trademark “coffee club” then I just saw that it is for a “TYPED DRAWING” and this complicates things a bit.
Of course there is “CLUB COFFEE” and several other trademarks that incorporate the words coffee and club.
Word Mark COFFEE CLUB
Goods and Services IC 030. US 046. G & S: Coffee sold in retail stores and through the mail. FIRST USE: 20030100. FIRST USE IN COMMERCE: 20030100
Mark Drawing Code (1) TYPED DRAWING
Serial Number 78195107
Filing Date December 17, 2002
Live/Dead Indicator LIVE
There is no defense to this if a UDRP or URS was to surface…In law, we used to call it a “slam dunk”, until I got my professor pregnant…
I disagree.
The complainant has to prove “you have no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the domain name”.
When there is a business behind it then it is easy for respondent to prove it. Very easy UDRP/URS case.
Interesting thing I find is that new tlds do not work on safari and just brings you to google search there must be a large part of searches that go missing and end up on google home page and they reaps the benefit of the domain name for no cost
I think it works if you enter www. in front.
New gTLD’s work fine in safari.
Do you have the newest version? Because they didn’t use to resolve on Safari a few versions ago. They even resolve on Iphone safari.
If you try to look at the internet using IE6, you’ll see it looks a bit different as well. 😉
Expect more of these ….. the future, strange some work with a www. and some don’t (goes to search) of course that will change down the road, development is the key with gtld’s. Expect to see that with the geos’ and big brands …… Here come the Gtld’s. Whether we like it or not !
I find a lot of mine don’t work with the www or without on safari you pay a lot for some new tlds I have poker.cheap , marijuana.deals etc and they dont work on safari google seems to be getting a lot of free traffic and free searches .
www. is a third level domain. You need to create it and point it.
Coffee Club vs Coffee.Club: same name, same service in “through the mail” class of still live TM. No TM infringement in this case? I’ll be surprised.
Slum-dunk TM infringement in court will not always get you the domain in UDRP.
Great reference point with this post.
Nice overview K !
I see some people are worrying about TM’s. The fact one has a generic word or 2 generic words as a TM doesn’t give the TM automatically exclusive rights of usage. If that was true then most of the internet as in domains would cease to exist. Especially if the domain is being used for exactly that what the generic word or words mean.
A little while ago i saw on some one got approached by AMEX for using the word “OPEN”. They didn’t even have a TM for the combinations he has, but they simply didn’t like him using the word “OPEN” for those domains.
I don’t know if some people just are trolling those investing in the new gTLDs or are heartwarming concered for their fellow loved domainer, but sometimes … 😉
PAX – A large and important part of domain investing is knowledge of Trademarks and Intellectual Property..Your example of AMEX is far from the one mentioned above. I have no time for case studies and analogies, but I suggest you do further research…..And when you mention, “I don’t know if some people just are trolling those investing in the new gTLDs or are heartwarming concered for their fellow loved domainer, but sometimes..”…………In reference to my comments above I am heartwarmingly concerned, FYI……
@Aaron
Thank you, but don’t worry about me but rather people who keep spreading disinformation to discredit those who differ in views. Seen it too much lately since the new gTLDs got out. Perhaps you are indeed concerned with your fellow domainers which is great and helpful. At the we provide opinions which people can take or leave, one can always seek professional legal advise to see where they are standing and if it is worth it.
i live in europe. i,m english Learning.
I live in europe.i’m learning english.anyway thank’s for anamnesis.
Meanwhile same i told already don’t domains comparison together.food.delivery is not related to food.agency.
he he you doing food.music comparison with food agency, !!ok you be glad.
Meanwhile i told already don’t domains comparison together.food.delivery is not related to food.agency. and so again we are the consultation for site extension. The value site will be known in the future.
The keywords “Food Agency” have around 720 exact Google searches/Month according to the Google keyword planner. That’s decent, but nothing great (in comparison the keywords “Food Delivery” have 90,500 Exact searches/Month).
Food.agency is definitely not a domain worth $48,000 (especially since it’s not even a .com). So if you really got a $48K (legit) offer on this domain my advice would be to accept it as FAST as possible.
we have a few suggestions for startup and expansion this domain.and now we have not Intent for sell.and if now is in sedo, just for get approximate price.Meanwhile much sites used foodagency. for example
http://www.thefoodagency.com.au/
http://foodagency.eu/
http://thefoodagency.dk/da/hjem
http://www.thefoodgroup.com/Agency
http://thefoodagency.nl/
http://www.jesus-agency.com/
food and drink agency
http://www.dinemarketing.com/
this domain have their applicants.
Your information is low about this domain.
anyway thanks
