OutdoorFountains.com receives $22,000 bid at GreatDomains

The domain name OutdoorFountains.com has received 1 bid at GreatDomains for $22,000.  

While $22,000 may sound like a lot of money to plunk down for some investors, it’s not a lot of money for the sole bidder who could very well be a company selling outdoor fountains as a product —- a company looking to get a competitive edge in the search engines.  Not to mention, a memorable domain name.

The $22,000 bid met the seller’s reserve price.  So now the name is in public auction for the next 4 days.

The $22,000 bid, is also well below Valuate.com’s appraisal – which puts the name at $100,000.

Next Navigation Pty Ltd, a web development and online sales company, based in Australia owns the domain.  The company also owns names like Salaries.com. 

Sedo could be continuing another strong week of sales.  Last week the company owned nearly every spot in the DN Journal Top 20 chart, including the top spot with 029.com selling for $110,000.
