Here are this week's Top Topics.
End-User Demand
This is possibly one of the most valuable discussions of 2019. Written by domainer @Dave, this discussion focuses on the concept of end-user demand. As is evident by sales price data, end-users often pay the most for a domain name.
The concept of end-user demand is examined here, and this may just help you become a little more selective with your domain acquisitions.

I Sold 2 Domains in 1 Day for $63,000
March 1st, 2019 turned out to be one of the luckiest days in this investors’ life as they sold two domain names for a grand total of $63,000 from a very low combined acquisition cost. The day started as the investor woke up to a $38,000 “Buy Now” sale, meaning that the buyer didn’t negotiate, but immediately purchased the name for the asking price.
Reveling from this sale, the investor then received $25,000 for another domain in their portfolio. Totaling $63,000 in the space of one day. More details of the domain names are available in this discussion.

Poll: What Extension Are You Going For?
There has been a lively debate on Twitter between a company founder and numerous domain investors after the founder announced plans to switch from the GetSupply.com domain name to Supply.co. The founder made the switch to the one-word .CO domain name to differentiate from the “GetSupply” moniker that was becoming synonymous with the company.
On the back of this, a hypothetical question has been posted. If you owned a company, branded on a single word (such as “Supply), which alternative domain extension would you go with, assuming that the .COM wasn’t for sale? The voting seems split so far.

I’ve Had No Sales Since July
If you went three months without a single domain sale, would it be time to rethink your domaining strategy? This week, an investor has revealed that they haven’t had a sale since July, despite averaging around three per month before that.
With the domainer owning a combination of brandable and two-word names, are sales purely down to luck? Fortunately, other domain investors have been quick to offer their advice and opinions.

To Counter of Not to Counter?
If you look at any website offering negotiation advice, you’re bound to find something that says you shouldn’t accept the first offer that has been submitted. Does that hold true with domain names?
Does it ever make sense to accept the first offer you receive on a domain name, in case the buyer suddenly disappears? There’s an interesting story that prompted this question, which is available in the discussion.
