Tags: Online

British “cruise community” website Cruise.co.uk has set a record price for a .co.uk domain, paying £560k to secure Cruises.co.uk from German travel outfit Nees Reisen.

The previous most-expensive British domain was Recycle.co.uk, bought in October 2007, by ASAP Ventures for £150,000.

The two URLs will remain different sites. Cruise.co.uk will focus on cruising deals, while Cruises.co.uk will encourage user-generated content in order to create an online community for fans of cruises.
