Pizza.com made the headlines recently when it was brokered by Sedo for $2.6 million. Surprisingly this domain does not even make it in the top ten most expensive domain names ever – names whose sales figures were actually made public of course.

The Ten Most Expensive Domain Names Ever Sold

1. Sex.com, $12.5 million
2. Porn.com, $9.5 million
3. Diamond.com, $7.5 million
4. Business.com, $7.5 million
5. Casino.com, $5.5 million
6. Asseenontv.com, $5 million
7. Korea.com, $5 million
8. Wine.com, $3.3 million
9. Creditcheck.com, $3 million
10. Vodka.com, $3 million

Check out number 6 ( Asseenontv.com ) – it somehow doesn’t fit the list but hey a sale is a sale .

It is certainly food for thought. I got this list from this yahoo blog post.
