opinion Landers.. Afternic vs Dan

DanBingham · Feb 16, 2020

Ok so here's the thing...can't decide on whether I should direct my domains to Afternic or Dan landers. Whilst (in my opinion) the DAN landers look so much better, are potential end users more likely to buy through Afternic if presented with there 'Call to Action/Contact' page?

At the moment, all of my UK names point to DAN with BIN prices, while all of my. com utilise Afternic Landers.

What do you think? Should I switch all to DAN?

you need to adopt till you get the desired result, so why not simply trying this out? switching does not take long and you can always switch back...

Stick to where you have the best result. Ah! you can list your domains on both DAN and Afternic.

Alternatively you can create a web page, forward the domains to the page. and allow your potential buyers to select which of the marketplaces (DAN and Afternic) they want to finalize the purchase for a particular domain.
Simple and straightforward

"Ah! you can list your domains on both DAN and Afternic."

That's the very question I was wondering. How to list on both Dan and Afternic. I have all my domains on Dan at the moment, but heard good things about Afternic. I can only point my DNS to one marketplace at a time I thought? How would I point to both? Thanks...

Open afternic, list your domains. Thats it. Sometimes the domains get stuck under review and you will need to email them to let them know about the issue

Oh okay. Thanks. I thought you had to have the domains your selling on a certain marketplace point to that marketplace.. Didn't know I could just list the names there.

With DAN and Afternic, you can just list the names. Other marketplaces may stipulate that you point the domain(s) to them and them only (BrandBucket and SquadHelp come to mind).

Good to know. I have an account at Sedo too. Tried their parking for a while but didn't like the look of the parked page. Looked tacky.

You can try list domains on many places it increase chance for sell, I using afternic, GD auctions, epik, PC, DAN.

namescan · Sep 21, 2020

Now don't laugh, but anyone have any luck with eBay? Just for a quick $100 or so...

Donmarick · Sep 21, 2020

Ebay don't have many domain buyers so it would be hard. There are some listnings but there isn't many viewers.

To be accepted by Afternic you need to have a buy now price on the domains.

I would point to Dan for the simple fact that they have BTC as a cashout method

No, it's not needed. Only if you want your domains included in their premium network.

Kind of ironical, Godaddy is the biggest domain company and Dan has done so much work to co operate with them and Godaddy parking is still as it was many years ago, with still the beta testing undeveloped. I wouldnt be surprised if godaddy parking page is not mobile friendly.

You mean, it's time to go to go daddy?

ps. godaddy is so promoted here or it's just seems so

holkapolka · Sep 20, 2023

No I mean the parking service doesnt look good from Godaddy and Dan. The traffic hits are recorded monthly but not daily by Dan and Godaddy appears having a 1999 parking account site. But if it pays who cares.

I'm trying out the DAN minimal design and I like it so far.
