[DANEYAL]

You may please share tips, softwares & apps, your strategies & anything you care to share that can help fellow domainers.

Most domainers will refuse to answer. If spammers read it, they'd just muddy up everything worse for us.

 

[Paully]

Don't share this with too many people but a good plan is to sell at a higher price than you buy.

 

[Kate]

There is no secret really. What you need is the right inventory, then unsolicited offers and sales will follow.

 

[DANEYAL]

Experts say, never be the first person to quote the price ( at least try not to be), let the other party give its offer, so you can counter offer with your price.

My secret techniques are secret , can't disclose :P

 

[DANEYAL]

While sending email to the prospective leads, they say always try to be precise, to the point & address the recipient directly.

Like,

Heading: DomainName.com For Sale.
Content: Hello Brian. How much do you offer for this domain?
Signature: Your Full Name.

Seriously. Almost nobody is going to share their secrets that work for them. You need to read NP from top to bottom to get these gems of information. It might take you 4hrs a day for 3-6 months.

The secret is to keep them secret and not reveal in an open forum.

 

[johnn]

There is no secret. The market is open to everyone.
Just buy the right names and they will be sold. You will keep the junk names for good - for sure.

I've learned a really good advice from the DomainSherpa which is "Don't be a motivated seller". It means that you should wait until you get the best offer for your domain.

Here is the DomainSherpa's video if anyone's interested.

[DANEYAL]

As they say, there are two perspectives of selling a domain name.
1. Wait for the right buyer with maximum unreasonable offer for your valuable domain name.
or
2. Simply flip it with a decent return on investment, flipping it quickly as they suggest.

Plead the 5th on this one. Otherwise it wouldn't be a secret anymore would it?

was just about to say same thing. OP, technically speaking, domaining is a selfish business. You have to be selfish in some ways to survive in this business. Hardly does anyone reveals all.

I can agree with you on that, as there are not many replies received. With the Word Secret, I actually intended to get some thoughtful Gems on Domaining, certainly it was taken as something very secret to disclose. Yes you are right, learning the hardway is the secret actually.

Let me tell you one secret that you will use...watch what the big dogs do and do same. That's how I learn on here

 

[S-B]

I use *****.com, ******.net and some custom tools.

 

[Archangel]

It might seem like I'm being an asshole or domainers are assholes.No: SPAMMERS are assholes. If we went public with our secrets,we risk spammers (and unethical POS who like to think they're domainers) using them & making them ineffective.So yeah, we tend to be smart: we keep it out of public.
