For many people, it represents a perfect way to make a lot of money quickly, but you need to know how and when.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Throughout history, there have been exorbitant domain name purchases that have cost a fortune, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Whisky.com; In 1999 Michael Castello, a clear visionary, bought this domain inspired by the &quot;Whisky a Go Go&quot; club for a modest price, which he later bought back for $3.1 million.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mi.com; This domain was purchased at auction by the Xiaomi brand for $3.7 million, thus giving birth to the Mi brand, which now encompasses everything from smartphones to headphones.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Zappos.com, an online clothing retailer, paid $4.9 million to acquire this domain.

When creating a domain, it&#039;s crucial to choose one that conveys your message or keyword. It&#039;s also wise to buy the same name in .com, .es, and any other domains you might want to own, before someone faster than you makes you pay a fortune to get it.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La compra de dominios siempre suscita pol\u00e9mica, porque ha pasado de ser el nombre de una p\u00e1gina web a convertirse&#8230;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":7170,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[47,88],"tags":[271,270,269,272],"class_list":["post-7036","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-apen","category-web","tag-comprar-dominio","tag-dominio","tag-dominios","tag-dominios-mas-caros"],"acf":[],"taxonomy_info":{"category":[{"value":47,"label":"Apen"},{"value":88,"label":"WEB"}],"post_tag":[{"value":271,"label":"comprar dominio"},{"value":270,"label":"dominio"},{"value":269,"label":"dominios"},{"value":272,"label":"dominios mas caros"}]},"featured_image_src_large":["https:\/\/apen.onlinevalles.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/foto-apen.jpg",850,401,false],"author_info":{"display_name":"Patricia","author_link":"https:\/\/apen.onlinevalles.club\/en\/blog\/author\/patricia\/"},"comment_info":0,"category_info":[{"term_id":47,"name":"Apen","slug":"apen","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":47,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":251,"filter":"raw","term_order":"0","cat_ID":47,"category_count":251,"category_description":"","cat_name":"Apen","category_nicename":"apen","category_parent":0},{"term_id":88,"name":"WEB","slug":"web","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":88,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":128,"filter":"raw","term_order":"0","cat_ID":88,"category_count":128,"category_description":"","cat_name":"WEB","category_nicename":"web","category_parent":0}],"tag_info":[{"term_id":271,"name":"comprar dominio","slug":"comprar-dominio","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":271,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":1,"filter":"raw","term_order":"0"},{"term_id":270,"name":"dominio","slug":"dominio","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":270,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":1,"filter":"raw","term_order":"0"},{"term_id":269,"name":"dominios","slug":"dominios","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":269,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":1,"filter":"raw","term_order":"0"},{"term_id":272,"name":"dominios mas caros","slug":"dominios-mas-caros","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":272,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":1,"filter":"raw","term_order":"0"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/apen.onlinevalles.club\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7036","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/apen.onlinevalles.club\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/apen.onlinevalles.club\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apen.onlinevalles.club\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apen.onlinevalles.club\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7036"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/apen.onlinevalles.club\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7036\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":54085,"href":"https:\/\/apen.onlinevalles.club\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7036\/revisions\/54085"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apen.onlinevalles.club\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7170"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/apen.onlinevalles.club\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7036"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apen.onlinevalles.club\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7036"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apen.onlinevalles.club\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7036"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
