    Does Buying A Domain For Link Traffic To An Existing Website Work?

    The point is not the upsurge in traffic because the answer is for sure YES. The point is to understand if really the relevant available domains have really traffic! Usually it's difficult to find reg fee domains with traffic because they are all registered.

    Is Sedo still important to you?

    The biggest Sedo gap also for me is the verification process. I suggest to implement the verification through custom nameserver (like in Dan or Above): quick and easy

    discuss Wipo process with my domain

    No fees unless you open a dispute or you want a Three-Member Panels. You will loose the domain only.

    question I sell much more on Sedo than Afternic

    I had the same experience with one sale on Sedo. I switched the landing page to DAAZ and the buyer bought the domain without problems. May be Sedo requires too much information and the customer is unwilling to give (there may also be an unlawful payment!). BIN sells more than makeoffer.

    Parking specific questions...

    There are no parking limitations regarding TLDs. The key factor, as said by biggie, is the traffic and you should focus on that. It can be limitations in the payment options regarding countries but I suggest to read terms and conditions of your parking platform

    Discount Club Pricing

    There is now discount on Network Solution. You can loose also the domain on DC if someone backorder the same domain on standard price instead of discount club.

    Drop competition has increased a lot lately, wondering why. (Also closeouts etc)

    I can confirm that there is more competion backordering domains at low price level. Six months ago it was easy for me acquiring more than 10 domains per day; since few months rarely happens. I have not changed target, strategy and budget. So there is only one explation for me: more competitors...

    Domain evaluation at Godaddy

    I use it and I have positive feedback about considering that is a free automated tool. The estimation is more reliable if there are similar domains already sold. I use also estibot that is more reliable imo. It's a good starting point if you have no experience. I know also that many domainers...

    Revenue drops too much with Bodis

    Jan 2023: 18.5% / $0.2 / $30.7 Jan 2022: 19.2% / $0.3 / $47.2 My portfolio is losing 36% on EPC. I don't have significant statistics for the previous years.

    Question on Catched.com vs the others

    Add Dropcatch. Snapnames and Namejet are based on the same platform so choose only one: it could happen that if you are the only one who wants that specific domain and by putting the double backorder (Snapnames + Namejet), you would send it to auction instead of getting it directly

    question Recommended auction marketplace

    Apart LLLL.com domains, at the moment I see reg fee domains

    Dropcatch question

    You can manage your domain in NameBright. Credentials are the same

    question Where do buyers go usually?

    My statistics are 70% domains sold on Sedo, 20% on registrant marketplace, 10% on DAN. I tried Afternic in the past without great results so I'm not using it anymore. So my suggestion is to register domains with a registrant that has an embedded marketplace so you can increse the chance to sell...

    Increase Parking Revenue

    My strategy to increase parking revenue is only one: search for good domains and let expire the bad ones. Switching between platforms or using Above/Parklogic is an optimization but cannot change too much the result. I have domains, especially related to asian region, that receive a lot of...

    opinion Bodis or Sedo ?

    I suggest to stay with Sedo if your goal is to sell the domains. It's better to switch to Bodis if your goal is to generate revenue from parking. However Sedo is not bad for parking so you can't expect great performance from Bodis if there are no results on Sedo

    advice Bulk domain redirects with HTTPS

    You can buy an hosting account that allows unlimited PARKED DOMAINS for example based on Cpanel or DirectAdmin. Then you park all the domains and create your custom page. I suggest a php script with the $_SERVER[HTTP_HOST] variable to detect the domain. This method avoid redirect (that I don't...

    question What are the Things that make a domain good for parking

    redemo suggestions are perfect. So perfect that a lot of people is looking for the same domain and acquisition price is overestimated. I prefer noneisnone suggestion: traffic in the niche. Less competition, less investment required. You need time and experience: this means that you will loose...

    question Is parking worth it?

    Dear Bob, you are right, typos related to dictionary words usually are legit. The point is that these domains are already taken. So it's more easy to find a typo for a new trending company/trademark. Regarding backorder, I'm thinking about a domain bought on Dropcatch/Snapnames for example...

    question Is Parking Really Dead or It Has Gotten So Different?

    It depends also who are you asking the question to ... Is the recipient an owner of dictionary domains / typos domains / high traffic expired domains? The answer of course is positive! Is the recipient someone who wants to invest money & time to buy new domains? There is lot of competition and...
