Media Corp acquires sport.co.uk
By peter.stilgoe
Media Corp has acquired the domain name and website sport.co.uk for £135,000 as part of a continuing focus on expanding its digital properties.
Media Corp, which revealed it was overhauling Gambling.com last month, said it wanted to develop sport.co.uk as a key sports portal, with information, news and stats on global sports.
Justin Drummond, Media Corp CEO, said: “The value of a top-tier domain name combined with a profitable advertising-driven business model was recently illustrated by the Group’s successful sale of Casino.co.uk for up to £3.625m.
“We are aiming to replicate this success with Sport.co.uk as we continue to increase the scale and diversity of the Group’s Web Publishing business.”
