advice Mike Mann Selling Strategies

Has Mike Mann ever written about how he goes about finding buyers for all of his domain sales? While many at this point are probably on reputation from his DomainMarket site, I'm sure he does a lot of hustling as well. I will always see his recent sells around here and always am surprised by...

You don't want this. This is when your internet turns into what a cable subscription is; likely what the big corps want.

advice Mike Mann Selling Strategies

I could have these domains in my portfolio and I'm sure I would never sell them, or at least not for the prices he gets. He's not just good at picking potential winners, but he's also managing to find targeted buyers at the same time.

discuss NaturalBeauty.com has just sold for 9,999 USD, lost over 55,000 usd

While a great name definitely delivers an initial message, there is no way to say that the name would make the site, especially this point: "...a name like that would have created an income of 9,999 USD in a matter of weeks.". The site won't make any money without good content, proper...

Domain Holders and New Companies; Devaluing and Problems

This is just something I've been wondering recently and haven't found a real clear cut answer on. So let's say you snagged a sweet brandable or short keyword-rich .com back in the day. You have plans for this domain but life and other things gets in the way. You hold onto it knowing that...

Do You Buy Domains With A Bad History?

The problem isn't viruses though because that will pass once the nameservers and hosting is changed. The problem is that a previously bad site will still be treated as such when revived (even under a new brand) by google. And this would cause it in most cases to not rank in the search engine at...

Question About Buying A Domain Name That's Already Owned

It's not about the cost of a broker. I would just rather do it myself if I could. Once I throw a broker into the mix everything is on their terms.

Question About Buying A Domain Name That's Already Owned

I believe the namecheap "make offer" service is a broker, as they have partnered with DomainAgents to integrate this service. What payment processor is recommended to avoid any issues if the owner wants to sell? Should I tell them to use escrow? I don't want them to potentially shy away...

Question About Buying A Domain Name That's Already Owned

I've found a domain I like, however it is already owned by someone else. The domain itself isn't in use and has been parked and unused since it was purchased a few years ago. There are also no links to buy it, and it's not listed on any of the big domain marketplaces. Because of this, and the...

advice Can you beat Hugedomains/similar on dropped domains

There is a domain I wanted that the owner hasn't renewed that has expired last week (by chance I monitored the WHOIS for the past few weeks). It's not a valuable domain, but is just something I personally wanted. It also fulfills the requirements that I know Hugedomains/similar tend to scoop up...

advice Is HugeDomains/Comparable Still Buying Every Decent Dropped Name?

There is a domain I want for a personal project. It was hand regged last year and expired last week. I sent an offer. Considering it hadn't been renewed, its possible the domain is set to be dropped by the seller. I made a judgement call to make an offer, because my worry is that when it drops...

question How close can two website names be without causing problems

Well, it is a good thing it's not Canadian Tire. Rather, what appears to be a relatively small business without a trademark.

question How close can two website names be without causing problems

In Canada, there is a website called "CanadaComputers.com". So lets say you also had a computer store and wanted to call it "CanadianComputers.com". Would you likely run into problems with trademark, sued, cease and desist, etc? I don't think its such an easy question, because while customers...

Someone reg a domain on my to-reg list

I have had a domain that was available for multiple years being scooped up within hours of me searching for its name in a registrar. I now operate under the assumption that all searches are somehow available to someone, and you should scoop it up the minute you realize you want it. In your...

Do You Buy Domains With A Bad History?

Do you guys make it a habit to check the domains history via archive.org or screenshot prior to buying? What if you find a great name for sale but it was previously being used to sell porn or viagra. Do you still buy it? Will others still buy it from you? I am coming from an SEO background and...
