Yahoo acquired Flicker.com

Flickr.com, one of the most popular social websites in the world which is also happened to be one of the most misspelled name in the internet. This has made Flicker.com to gain some considerably high traffic from these supposedly misspelled users. According to Flicker.com website, they garnered around 3.6 Millions of visitors per year in which 95.74% are their direct users. This value could make the website revenue to be around $2k per day since photography equipment niche is a very valuable keyword.

It is still unclear whether Yahoo bought it or not although Domain News Wire reported that a lawsuit settlement gave Yahoo the domain, but a spokesperson from Yahoo mentioned that the domain is being transferred to them, and with no further explanation. Back in 2007, Yahoo offered them $600k to buy the domain which they turn it down.
