There are a variety of businesses that sell domain names to different companies and individuals seeking to move their business to the world wide web for advertisement purposes, or to keep up with the times, etc. No matter the reason, it is a wise business decision to purchase a domain name for a company since a lot of business is being done online in today’s time.

One such domain name selling company is Sedo.com. A recent story that is developing around this company is due to a domain name that they have for sale “tubmlr.com”. At first glance many mistake this domain name as the popular social networking or media site, “Tumblr.com”. If you look closely the b and the m have been switched in these 2 domain names. This domain name was recently sold on March 3rd, 2012 and according to previous info, the domain name as of March 2nd had a bid of over $24,000 in US dollars. There was also only one bidder on the domain name at that time and it was suspected to be the original Tumblr.com itself, possibly not wanting its company and web site to be confused with another or to have any competition or potential confusion.

It will be interesting to find out what happened to this type domain name “tubmlr.com” and who the actual bidder and purchaser was at the end of the auction. Sedo.com is a very popular and successful domain name selling company so it would be awful if something came from this that ruined their reputation or hurt their business. The domain name selling business can be a little dry and boring at times so it’s typo domain names and the drama they bring that brings some life into the business and keeps people on their toes for awhile.
