WebOneWordA public domain sales database contains reported observations, not a complete ledger of every transaction. Treat the record's provenance as part of the data rather than a footnote beneath the price.
Read the evidence fields together
Start with the exact domain, original amount and currency, named source and date description. Determine whether the venue is known or simply not specified. An unknown venue should not be replaced by the registrar or the website currently using the name.
Open the original report where available. A summary can omit qualifications that matter to the comparison, such as the timing of disclosure or what was included in the transaction.
Distinguish report time from transaction time
An article published in one month may describe a sale completed earlier. A feed may omit dates entirely. Preserve that uncertainty instead of sorting every imported record as though it happened when the feed was downloaded.
Understand what a missing row means
The absence of a transaction from WebOneWord does not establish that the name has never sold. Private transactions, inaccessible reports and incomplete source coverage can all leave gaps.
Likewise, the presence of a sale does not establish that the domain is currently available to buy.
Use aggregates with their sample size
A median describes the selected observations. It is not a global market price or a valuation of another domain. Separate currencies and note whether a large collection was sampled for calculation.
The research dataset page displays the scope and sample rules used for its summaries. Use Sales to inspect individual source records before drawing conclusions from an aggregate.
