Domain Names of the World

What a Day....

It takes some doing to crash Sedo's servers....but we managed it! Tensions were high in the last half hour of yesterday's auction as it became apparent that Sedo's servers were buckling under the pressure of the sheer volume of traffic on the auction site. A first in the history of Sedo and it speaks volumes about the popularity of dotMobi's premium names.

A decision was taken to extend the auction by three hours and that time was spent working on the system, contacting all bidders and contacts, posting blogs, updating sites etc. [And we would like to say a big thank you to all those who helped with the efforts]. Within an hour it was apparent that traffic was back up again and we closed with a spectacular result - over $2 million in sales with music.mobi reaching $616,000 and games.mobi fetching $401,500. Thanks to all who participated!

This is a tremendous result and it could not have come at a better time as we lay our plans for 2008 and continue with our efforts on ready.mobi, dev.mobi and some new technology that we have planned (stay tuned for more on that one). Stick around folks - 2008 is going to be our best year yet!
