Sixth part of my series on lexicon domains. I analyzed the current usage of 26 English metal .com domains, and here are the results:
- 14 metal domains are actively in use by businesses or individuals
- 2 metal domains are up for sale
- 10 metal domains are largely dormant, sitting parked, under construction, broken, redirected, or unreachable
The sale of Gold.com for $8.5M in 2024 was record-breaking and ranks among the highest public domain prices in recent years. No surprise there – with governments printing ever more fiat money and gold prices soaring, Gold.com is simply capitalizing on the momentum with a huge leverage. Even Walmart started selling gold bars. Since metal needs to be physically shipped (most buyers want to own it), also country TLDs for metal domains—which cover local markets and build trust—benefit from this trend.
