How to..Afternic/ GoDaddy

2Freaky · Dec 7, 2019

Maybe someone would be so kind to help me with some open questions.

Despite my research on the Godaddy Website and the Afternic comparison table (standard/premium network) i am obviously too stupid to understand it...

I have an Afternic acount and posted 50 Domains there.
Q: How can i add the premium network?
Q: And what does it cost more than the standard network?

I dont have a Godaddy account yet.
Q: Why should i open an account on Godaddy and why should i choose the annual membership for the auction, if i see my auctions already on Godaddy posted by Afternic? What are my benefits?

Parking Service
Q: Do i need to agree to that? I want to make a onepager by my on. Also i think its confusing if i want to post it on other sales-platforms outsite the Afternic network?

Fast transfer
Q: If i choose this premium service - is it allowed to post my domain names also outside the Afternic network? For excample Sedo? Flippa? To the same time?

I would be grateful for a few ideas and suggestions

Few answers:

- Any domain goes premium on Afternic after 60 days from reg. You need to do nothing just to wait until new regs have passed 60-day period from reg.

- It's enough to list on Afternic, they will automatically be listed in Godaddy marketplace. Side note GD has bought Afternic in 2013.

- GD account is however good if you want to do auctions there; most domainers have a GD account.

- Parking: Park wherever (however) it pleases you; but if you get most sales via Afternic it would make sense to park there as it might boost your sales. Afternic tends to sell my names for top dollar but their fee is higher. Overall it is worth it for me.

- Forget about parking income, it's usually pennies.

- You can post domain names elsewhere as well, but make sure you do BIN on only one network. I always set the BIN on Afternic, and use Make offer anywhere else. Sedo is said to work better with make offer, that's what I am using as well.

This way you avoid double sales at the same time on 2 networks (trust me, it happens way more often than it seems).

Premium partners support the domain transfers in automode.
The only one difference.
