Porn.com sells for over 9 million dollars!

porn.com
In the largest all-cash domain transaction in history, the domain Porn.com sold recently for 9.5 million dollars to MXN Ltd, an internet media and investment firm.

It's the second largest domain sale overall after Sex.com was sold privately in January 2005 for a reported 12 million dollars in cash and stocks.

Monte Cahn, executive of Moniker.com, who brokered the sale, said:

"The sale of Porn.com further reinforces the growing trend of businesses that place a high strategic value on generic domains related to their industry. Porn.com will prove to be a valuable asset for MXN Ltd. because of its significant number of daily visitors and established type-in traffic, in addition to being the top domain in the adult industry."

Although it currently contains nothing but adverts, Porn.com receives thousands of unique visitors a day. The buyer did not disclose what they plan to do with the domain. What would you do with a domain like that?
