Since they took this precious domain, I was wondering about the purchase price and if it was worth to buy this awesome domain—we are talking here about a mid six digit at least, rather seven digits.
Then, I checked how much traffic speedtest.net is getting on SimilarWeb: wow, 150m visits per month, I didn't know that speed testing can be so popular.
Conclusion: Yes, it was right to buy this domain and if fast.com gets a large part of speedtest.net's traffic in the long term, Netflix has a neat free Marketing channel.
- brazzledazzle 10y agoThey also have a pretty simple way to show end users that their ISPs are either throttling them or being uncooperative with Netflix. I'm not sure what it will do to monopolies, if anything, but it could apply significant indirect pressure to a lot of ISPs.
