iPhone.com 賣了一百萬美金
iPhone.com acquired by Apple
It has been confirmed that Apple has finally succeeded in purchasing the domain name iPhone.com from Michael Kovatch. Kovatch is something of a domain name profiteer, having himself bought the iPhone.com domain in 1995 before the iPod or even the original iMac. He's also the owner of several other high-profile, domain names like SoccerShop.com, Wine.net, Golf.net, Noc.net, WineOnline.com, Kovo.com, TeeShirt.com, and CyberWine.com. DomainTools reports "Michael said this last week was a very busy one inside of Apple. He was holding out because he truly wanted to use the domain." Traffic to iPhone.com had, obviously, skyrocketed in the last 6 months." The domain is still in Michael’s account under Domains by Proxy but Apple plans to transfer the domain in the next week. The iPhone.com domain reportedly fetched more than $1 million. via macnn |

CHINACODE.COM北京時間7月4日消息,據國外媒體報道,蘋果公司在iPhone上市之後終於重金購回iPhone.com域名,業內預計金額不低於100萬美元。
iPhone.com域名此前由一個名為邁克爾·柯瓦特(Michael Kovatch)的美國人在1995年註冊,柯瓦特還創立了一家公司,在該網站提供各種智能手機廣告,但並不包括iPhone。在上週五iPhone正式發售時,iPhone.com還顯示的是柯瓦特公司的智能手機廣告,但今天登陸該網站則自動挑轉至蘋果官方網站www.apple.com/iphone/。 柯瓦特表示,自己原本不願出售iPhone.com域名,因為自蘋果今年初公佈首次對外公佈iPhone以來,該網站流量猛增,業務發展勢頭不錯。不過他最終未能抵擋住蘋果的金錢誘惑。儘管柯瓦特不願透露該域名的售價,但業內人士預計,金額不會低於100萬美元。 據悉,柯瓦特在九十年代從事ISP(互聯網服務提供商)生意,出於精明的商業頭腦和對互聯網未來的看好,他一口氣註冊了Wine.net、Golf.net等域名,而iPhone.com的註冊則是出於他對互聯網未來的預測,即網絡可能會提供電話服務,沒想到12年後這個域名會賣給蘋果,自己也一夜暴富成為百萬富翁。 iPhone引發的巨大市場關注令人看到商機,據此前媒體報道,目前已註冊的iPhone相關域名高達4000多個,預計今年年底之前還會再增加4000個。此外,不少開始在eBay上拍賣已註冊的iPhone域名,其中一些起價高達數千美元,但競購者寥寥無幾。 一十二年终归属... 話說wine.net和golf.net真可惜 此篇文章於 2007-07-04 11:28 AM 被 jack111 編輯。 |

我以前写信购买一个域名,那个域名的owner当年也拥有过一些很顶级的.com,包括ePhone.com,他当初卖掉的价格应该是1万多美元。。。大概5年前。
