You’re Underselling Your Domain Names

Do you undersell your domain names? This investor believes that you might do. According to the discussion, many domainers don’t allow their domain names to speak for themselves.

Sales of late have been very slow. The end of 2021 and the beginning of 2022 were very good.

Sweet. First time getting a mention!

Outside of that, I was definitely hoping that more would have chimed in a bit when it comes to repeat buyers, but it's looking like it's mostly a one and done deal. Maybe if I personally dived specifically into a certain niche or had a larger portfolio, it might be a different story.
