Best methods and ways to sell domains

domainguru · 11-25-2004, 01:55 PM

I am fairly new to the domain name buy/sell market and was wondering what are the best ways you have all found to sell domains? I have used ebay and this forum and done ok, but what methods do other people use? I have tried to search for other sites similar to this to sell on but I havent found any even close to as nice as this one. I have got some great names, but don't know how to get word out to the buyers that would really value the names I have. I have a limited budget so can't afford to spend a lot on listing domains with for pay sites to list. I am ok with paying a commission once it sells, it is just the up front fees that can get steep fast. Your suggestions are appreciated.

Afternic works well so does approaching existing webmasters and websites to see if they may be interrested. If it is a name you are only looking for a decent price over reg fee Afternic Bazzar is not bad but most buyers purchase in the 7-20$ range. Nice way to get rid of a lemon or 2.

The best and fastest way I've found to sell domains is through forums like NamePros.

andriegel · 11-27-2004, 11:30 AM

What about selling a name that is trademarked by a large corporation?

ddrassociate · 11-27-2004, 12:15 PM

Isn't that illegal? And there are many forums to sell your name. I've found it profitable to post in numerous forums other than this one. Let me know if you're interested in which ones but NamePros is just as good as any.

Where else can you list domains to sell without having to pay a up front cost to list them and pay just a percent of the sale price or no percent at all? I have had the most success with namepros and another forum, I am looking to find another good source to sell names with low fees and that has a lot of buyers coming to it each day, rather than going for the high priced sale, I am looking to just have quick turn around on most domains and go on volume. Keeping a few good ones to try and get top dollar, but for the most part I just want to go on volume. Any other ideas for spots please PM me.

Thanks

Plenty of small sites. Just google "list your domain names" or "sell your domain names here" or anything similar.

There are scripts that let individual users sell their domains on smaller sites also, some of the scripts I believe are freeware (But I don't use so I'm not sure).

-----Edit------

Just made a rough draft for sale page at http://www.parkingprimer.com/forsale
Will be linked to main page when it gets enough sites for sale.

As far as a little more high promotion built in:

SEDO.com is good
domainhop.com is good
domainsponsor.com is gonna be good when it's out of beta.
