Pizza.com sold for $2.6 million - 1-Pizza.com May Follow

Wow! Competition in the Pizza market will get interesting soon.

Domain names with hyphens can be of great value if the intention is to associate the domain to phone numbers and market to mobile surfers. A 1-Dash domain (beginning with the number one followed by a hyphen) mimics a phone number for direct navigation that will prompt mobile surfers to connect.

Very Cool! Domains with hyphens can have great purpose and value in marketing.

1-pizza.com is a bargain and a direct competitor to pizza.com as we move to mobility because it looks like a phone number. It may be offered at a later date.

Numbers That Work has the following Pizza domains that use direct navigation to target Mobile Pizza Sales.

1-Pizza.com   
1-Pizza.mobi   
1-74992.com    (74992 spells Pizza on a phone keypad)
1-74992.mobi

The 1- mimics a phone number so it's a great memory trigger for people using a phone to connect to the web.

Pizza.com sold for $2.6 million

Today Sedo successfully brokered the sale of Pizza.com

for $2.6 million. I do not yet know who the buyer is, but I hope that
it is an end user, because that is what our industry needs most: more
corporate buyers.

Pizza.com has great value for big companies such as Pizza Hut:
It is a generic domain with inarguably lots of type-in traffic and
branding and marketing potential (it would make a great URL in TV ads).

By the way, inspired by this domain’s sale price Pizza.info has now been put up for sale at Sedo as well. Bidding is currently at $1,050.

Domain Suggestions - Why 1-Vegas.mobi Rocks!

Good Tool; Nonsense Results for Humans => Huh???
Since all the 'good' domain names have been snatched up already, people resort to using online tools like the excellent 'Domain Suggestion' Tool from Domain Tools.com for name suggestions. It saves time but feeds the digital noise of the internet.

Isn't it time we market to humans instead of the Goog Machine?

Frustration mounts from users as we are over-whelmed by options leading to nowhere. It is fueled by the Goog machine...
