Why do urls like allegory.com and smelt.com redirect to godaddy? Does no one really own those by this point? I feel like just about every common word or phrase would have been taken by now.

Question

Also leg.com and smell.com don’t appear to be owned.

Answer 1

The price of allegory.com is over 250000 eur + yearly fee. So that’s pretty expensive.

smelt.com on the other hand is taken it’s just that the owner decided to pay extra to hide his information and is currently not using the domain. They might be looking to sell it.
