I was contacted after the sale by a prior owner of InsuranceQuotes.com who told me that they sold the name and complete site but would not verify price or who bought them.

I could not confirm with Bankrate.com as I was told they would not comment.

My thoughts is the sale was in the upper 7 figures but again, that is just speculation.
