Consolidated SuperSales - Domain - MyDomain - NetFirms - Dotster

usernamex · Nov 29, 2016

While recovering from the past weekend of scattered deals and in anticipation of the next SuperSale, I am weary of having several threads related to the SuperSales at Domain - MyDomain - NetFirms - Dotster.

Since the promos often work at more than one reseller, I would love to have a single thread to watch and participate in, if you agree, hang out here and watch this thread!

All NPers are welcome to post coupons and promos here as long as they are Domain - MyDomain - NetFirms - Dotster. That way we all have a better chance at awesome savings as soon as the promos are live!

The usernamex Guide to SuperSales

SuperSales are promotions done by the family of registrars under Domain.com, including MyDomain.com NetFirms.com Dotster.com

About every 10 days to two weeks, one or more of these registrars runs what I like to call SuperSales - with dot COM / NET domain registrations for bargain prices, $1.99 - $2.99 - $3.99. Sometimes the specials are good for multi-year registrations, sometimes only the first year is discounted.

The super fun part is they let you use coupons ON TOP of the promo, so there have been specials as low as $1.39, $1.59 is more common, and $1.99 is still great any time!

If you are new, the best choice is usually MyDomain, since their renewals are second best (to Domain) and I have not seen the $1.99 special ever offered at Domain direct

A great way to get an account set up is NOT during the frenzy of the SuperSales, and a trick you can use without having to contact support is to buy the easiest to type/remember cheapest domain you can, like whatever ngTLD is on sale for $1.99, that will be your username. You can drop the domain after a year and your account will be fine. Otherwise get on chat and they can set you up ahead of time without having to make a purchase.

To make it easy for everyone, if you can BOLD any coupon codes, that would be super, and if you tested coupons successfully, please mention the reseller where you tested.

I'm just glad they had 1 last promo after Black Friday. I think I picked up over 50 domains with that promo... most of my wish list. Then I lost my list.

Transfers for $1.99 was not supposed to happen I would guess, a mistake on their part, I expect to never see that again. Did you miss all of yesterday? It was $5.39

It has been a month now since the last Promo : sad :

Your right it was a mistake, both "chat" and when I called during the promotion said there was never a $1.99 transfer, (lol) I guess they figured out the glitched and it won't happen again. Thanks for the update.

usernamex · Jan 3, 2017

Personally, I appreciate ANY discount at all, so if all they continue to offer is percentage discounts, I will happily take advantage for transfers and renewals.

And now a special dedication to Domain MyDomain NetFirms Dotster $1.99 Promos

I don't know if it worked for transfers too.

Dear Ken,

Thank you for contacting Afternic Support. The registrars Dotster, Netfirms, and Mydomain.com are not Premium Network Partners at this

time. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

Thank you.

Apparently Public Domain Registry Limited is the registrar for Whois.com. So Whois.com is actually part of your fast transfer network.

To be clear, you include Domain.com in the Premium Partners. Does that inclusion carry over to Domain.com s sister registrars, like Dotster,

Netfirms, and Mydomain.com?

thanks,

Can you provide me with the full, up-to-date list of Fast-Transfer registrars?

I saw this, below, but it doesn t include Godaddy and a few other registrars that I believe are included:

Making your domain a fast-transfer domain gives you the highest level of exposure--75 million+ potential buyers each month at the

highest average sales prices. Fast-transfer domains must have a buy now price and be registered through Network Solutions,

Tucows, Register.com, Name.com, eNom, eNomCentral, EuroDNS, Moniker, DynaDot, TerraNet, DomainDiscover, MeshDigital,

Gransy, Regtons, 123 Reg, DomainBox, or BulkRegister.

Dear Ken,

Thank you for contacting Afternic support. Yes, sorry for the confusion, there are a couple of Registrars who were part of the program

previously that have not yet been removed entirely from the website.

Please reach out to us if you have any other questions.

capable of opting in domains.

Hey I just wanted to let you know that I sold a Dotster name via Afternic Premium (Fast Transfer) just last week. I don't know why the Afternic representative said that Dotster is not a Premium partner. The name was transferred to the buyer immediately, which is a unique feature of Premium listings.

Yes, you're right, but he didn't knew what questions to ask to afternic. All four of them are using domain.com platform as registrar, domain.com is a premium partner so the other three, because they are using domain.com platform, they are in the premium partnership program, without having a direct contract with afternic. I have domains with all four of them being in the afternic premium program.

Maybe it is a location thing? Im in the US..

I just created an account at MyDomains.. same thing, when paypal comes up it only gives the card as an option (allowing me to pay with card) but no option to change it to paypal balance. All it will let me do is add another card..
