advice Make sure your domains are redirecting!

i just wanted to share a piece of advice with not only the beginners here but the community.

Over the past 5 years I’ve sold more domains through leads I get from landing pages than any other venue.

Make sure your domain names are directing to a for sale landing page of some sort. I get a ton of inquiries for domains through my efty landing pages, more than I do at afternic, GoDaddy, Sedo or NameJet combined.

Lots of buyers type the domain name in their browser or end up at a landing page through backlinks.

I’ve been testing undeveloped and the results for me have been pretty much the same as efty, but efty is one low monthly payment and undeveloped charges a commission. So for me it’s been better to use efty.

Thank you @Doron Vermaat Efty.com has more than quadrupled my annual sales!

Ok , I can recommend that to others. Do they help to promote your landing pages ?

I use Efty/Undeveloped as landing pages for 99% of my names. Both provide a clean and professional look that is pretty straight forward in terms of letting a potential buyer know that the name is for sale and how to get in touch. No brainer. Ugly parking pages with ads are just a nightmare for most.

As for visitor stats, I doubt high end users pay any attention to that anyway. In fact, I would argue that if you choose to display traffic stats on a domain you have for sale, that might make a potential buyer hesitate if the name don't have high volume traffic. An end user think differently than a domainer.

Thanks BrandsOpen. My first day here and you've provided me with three "write-this-downs". Particularly the contrast of buyer perceptions and domainer perceptions,:
