Internet.com

We already reported how QuinStreet went on crazy buying in 2009, acquiring the largest insurance-related domains that are now firmly in the top five of all time. In addition, the corporation paid $18 million in cash for one of the most expensive domain names, Internet.com.

WebMediaBrands, a global source of news and unique content, was the seller. The company intended to sell domain names in order to increase its net balance and focus on its core business ideas. According to reports, buying Internet.com grants QuinStreet Inc. access to a market of 15 million internet users.

According to recent sources, Internet.com has a rather big name, but the site doesn't offer anything. Despite being sold to QuinStreet Inc. in 2009 for approximately $20 million, the website has stayed mostly unchanged. According to a recent report, the site will one day provide a private and secure email service for the entire world.

Price: $18 million
