£560k for the letter S. February 6th, 2008.
£560k for the letter S. The Internet-based cruise holiday company paid £560,000 for the letter S, they already have the domain www.cruise.co.uk but felt that the domain www.cruises.co.uk was worth over half a million pounds. They set a new British record for spending on a domain after they completed the purchase, the previous record was £150,000 last year for www.recycle.co.uk.
A domain name is very important for your business, if you would like some help registering the perfect domain name please give us a call. We understand how the process works and can keep our eyes pealed for that elusive www. which hopefully won’t cost half a million pounds!
Wow, £560k for the letter S. I thought you should know I have just purchased the domain name http://www.giantpeachesdesign.com for a handsome sum of five English pounds +vat. I like the name and am going to use it for my new site which will showcase Genetically modified and designed Gigantus Prunus persicus, thats giant peaches for those in the know or not. However before I embark on this project would you like to purchase the domain name from me? it might be useful for when you become a huge global player in the world of web design.
£560K on a domain, can they not find the spare funds for a decent web designer?
