Jason Richards, global vice president, information services, Torex said “Following our review of our digital assets, we’ve concluded that the domain name RSS, while having significant value in the marketplace, is not totally indicative of the Torex product, support and service offerings on a go-forward basis. Rather than maintaining this asset, we feel that it is better suited for a company in the media, publishing or entertainment sector where it should have stronger market appeal.”
Here are the stats:
- 3,810,000,000 page results for “rss” in Google
- 20,000 unique views a month.
- $750,000 USD reserve
Nora Nanayakkara, director of business development at Sedo stated: “It’s not often a name with such pertinence comes onto the market. As well as being short and memorable, the name has a widespread meaning. It’s a fantastic opportunity for an online media company to acquire it and grow its readership.”
To be honest, I can’t see how this will get $750k. Lets just wait and see.
