Welcome to NP

I cant see any commercial value in these names. I would delete these and start again..

Some advice for you that Ive posted before.
Try and focus on names that are easier to sell and have a larger end-user base.
First research and read this forum from top to bottom for a few months so you understand what makes a name valuable.
All this below only comes after you have read this forum for a while.
Check out DNJournal.com and Namebio.com to see what type of names sell
Shorter is usually better, but not in every case.
Don't mix letters and numbers
Avoid long names and dont buy 3 word names
Avoid trademark names!!!
Stick to .COM domains
Avoid hyphens in domains

A basic selling strategy
Avoid hand-registering names that are available, they are available for a reason. Rather spend $200 on 1 decent name than $200 on 20 crap hand registered names that you'll never sell.
Check out expiring lists and see if there is any value in the dropping names.
Email existing owners of decent names and buy 1 or 2 names, you wont know what is decent until you have done your research
Make sure there are plenty of potential buyers before buying the name
Email the potential end-users asking if they are interested in the name
Don't get greedy when starting out and sell for a reasonable price
Reinvest that profit into another name and then repeat the process

Dont fall for the usual trap of buying loads of names thinking you will sell them before renewal time next year, it doesnt happen.

Good luck, hope that helps

@gilescoley offers excellent advice .. the short version is that they did not get any bids because unfortunately they simply are not good domains. :(

Definitely take some time to learn more before buying more. Good luck! :)

Something positive:

Out of all those names, I think canikiss.com or Can I Kiss? has the most potential. I can see it as a Truth or Dare Game geared towards teenage girls. If you are lucky you may get $100 for it but you need to work hard at pitching the concept. In other words, it's not going to sell all by itself.

Hope you have enough feedback @sadhanjana to apply for now...time to reflect on why you bought these in the first place, why domain name as a business for you and also how much research have you done, spend a few months reading, conducting mock trades perhaps...then you can decide if this is for you..

I need to sell these domains after come to senses is need to delete. The good part is you haven't spent too much. One of the biggest problems is leaving it and letting things renew as it all get out of hand especially not paying attention and renewing names for 2 years when planned to drop them. End up with a list of leftovers after you picked best out.so just stick to the decisions you make or improve and cull.

I see that all these domains were registered last month. Even when you have really good names, it takes time for them to sell. Expecting to make a sale in just a few weeks or months is unrealistic. It does not work that way.

I think two of your names - Fold Town and Can I Kiss - have some potential, although this does not automatically mean they will sell in the near future. Or ever. I do not see the other three names being of interest to anyone.

Here is a great post about starting out in domaining:

Good luck.
