Two new deals in October managed to squeeze into the top 10 domain name charts, Max.com for $1.8 million and Hurt.com for $1.5 million. Max.com is the second largest publicly reported domain name deal of the year so far, behind Help.com, which was sold by Above.com for $3 million in January. deal.Hurt.com, which sold for $1.5 million, tied for third place in the year's top 100 with Michael Castello's sale of Room.com in September.

.com domains took 15 of the 20 spots on the list. Non-.com generic top-level domains (gTLDs) contributed four deals, two of which made the top half of the leading list. That leaves the ccTLDs (country code top-level domains) with just one slot, but they stole the show, with Genie.io selling for a staggering $82,500 at #5 on Efty.com. In addition to topping the latest country code top 20 sales list, Genie.io is now also one of the top 10 ccTLD sales reported so far this year.
