Top Most Expensive Domain Names
Domain names can cost as little as $2. But if they're particularly attractive, they can sell for millions.
We present to your attentionList of the most expensive domains in the world.
Not surprisingly, most of them are related to sex and gambling - the two biggest money-making streams on the Internet.
