BONUS INFORMATION :

It is in 90's that internet became popular, and that domain names became a real business!

FYI basicaly, a domain name is about 10/15$ a year - cars.com is the most valued domain name and has been confirmed to have been the largest domain sale in history, with a staggering $872,320,000 dollar valuation ...

Note:  

Once domain registration was open to the world, Symbolics.com was the first domain name registered.  

Thus, Symbolics.com is the oldest registered (and first registered) domain name on the Internet.  

Additionally, it is the first and oldest .com domain in existence.
