Hope you guys are doing great. Today I got the payment in my bank account and it's a very happy day for me. Here are the details
Domain name: Exact.org
Sale venue: Outbound
Seller: Me
Asking price: $6000
Sale price: $2500
Purchase price: $261 on NameJet (March 2016)
It was my 2nd ever purchase (The first one was a .net domain). Most of the people told me to stick with .com. However I decided to go for 1 strong dictionary word .net and 1 strong dictionary word .org (got the inspiration from one of @Zandibot blogposts).
For the first few months I didn't get any inquiry on Exact.org so In October 2016 I started outbound and emailed dozens of potential end users. I was not sending emails to their general email addresses i.e info@ or contact@ etc but researched and contacted the right person in the company. The hard work paid off and got the reply from one big company and we finalized the deal on $2500. I could have squeezed more money but did some blunders in the negotiations. Thanks to @AbdulBasit.com and @indiegrind for their support throughout the sale process. I thank all the namepros community as well. If there was no namepros i don't think i would have been in this domaining business at all.
The reason for creating this new thread is to encourage our new fellow domainers because in past the sales posts/threads were inspiration for me and I used to think that may be one day i will be able to sell my domain on a good price and that will be start of it. So here is that day....
All the best.
