Default Business.com sold for $345 million
Business.com was founded by entrepreneurs Jake Winebaum and Sky Dayton in 1999. The two were widely mocked for lavishing $7.5 million on a single Internet domain name -- business.com -- at the time. It was then the highest price paid for a domain name.

I think this is the value of the domain name that fetches up such fabulous price for the site.

I'm hoping to keep WebDiscussion.co.uk for a while then sell it off.. maybe not for $345 million but keeping it into the hundreds.
