DAN.COM Domain Marketplace (Official Thread)

[DAN.COM]

DAN.COM (formerly known as Undeveloped.com) is on a path to be become the biggest domain marketplace in the world. We use state of the art technology to solve everyday problems buyers and sellers in the domain industry face. At DAN.COM we focus on automating most processes required to buy & sell domains to increase a more efficient and active secondary market for domains.

What sets us apart is our strong focus on product development and customer satisfaction. We leave nothing to chance and every single feature and element we introduce is professionally and carefully designed and built.

DAN.COM is ranked in the top 5 best-rated marketplaces in the world (According to the biggest review platform Trustpilot) and in the domain industry, we're the domain marketplace with the highest rating with an average of 9,4 out of 10 points.

At DAN.COM you will get the highest value for the lowest commission around. Due to our domain transfer automation, we can offer significantly faster handling of domain transactions and payouts (usually within 24 hours) at the lowest fee charged by any domain marketplace.

We've been the first on many fronts and proudly will continue to keep innovating. We were the first to offer optimized for sale pages since 2013, the first to provide payment plans in the form of lease to own and rentals and also the first and only domain marketplace offering free SSL on all domains parked with us for over a year now.

Just looking into dan, how do I set up a bring your own lead transaction with a 12-month payment plan?

I think it's been answered before on here. If you bring a lead and he/she is paying in installments, then the 5% commission doesn't apply. The normal 9% will have to be paid

I just tried it on a couple of mine - 1 with make offer only and 1 with BIN + make offer.

It removed those options and gives only the Price Request (PR) option.

Do you mean the price request? I tried it but don't really like it.

Dan, can you tell us when you plan to fix this resolving issue, for example you can say April 1st 2025.
....
You have tons of tools for sellers, but the most important one is missing: allow domains to resolve to pages under dan.com, instead of domain.tld. Otherwise, a high percent (maybe more than 50 percent) of business is lost, because domains just don't resolve.
...
We were using a paid DNS service (3 figures per year) for our big site on a dedicated server, and they only allowed 10 domains to be hosted there. You allow millions,.. and they don't resolve, not surprising.

yes
well.. let's just say it's not the most.obvious thing on earth..so I didn't know about it til i saw this dudes sale.on namebio today at 60k...

www.nam.es

maybe he is here

anyway.. I like to keep everything makeoffer so.maybe a price request is actually a better way to weed.out the many spam nonpayers.on dan...

I mean I think.it.makes.sense to assume someone making pricerequest is bit more serious.than.the dude making.20k offer and never Intending to pay

thoughts guys?

I would prefer a simple "Contact Seller" option to open a dialogue between buyer and seller.

well pricereq is basically it.

Swetha uses all BINs - more than 21,000 domains listed
nam.es uses price request - Less than 300 domains listed

 

[alcy]

I wouldn't rely.on swetha stats or.methods as reference..she is in class.apart

while most us struggle for few 4fig sales per month or few months she does few 4 and 5fig sales per week

it is utterly pointless to.try to.imitate this..in fact it is impossible to match these results

that being said I think I will give pricereq a try. I think it has strong potential to eliminate the nonpayers..or reduce.them

 

[Dane]

well pricereq is basically it.

Not exactly. Just sending a number is not the same.

Yeah her pricing works because of her portfolio size. I just posted both of their portfolio for data. Someone with incoming sales can afford to put a bin on all domains. Someone with smaller portfolio can use price request / make offer.

I have had 2 price request this year. Buyer requested the price and i sent it and they decline dit and disappeared. I tried messaging them and no answer.

many resolving problems today...

Dan landing pages don't load in less than 20 seconds.
You can change the landing page url for keyword.ext (under settings) from keyword.ext to:
https://dan.com/buy-domain/keyword.ext?redirected=true&tld=ext
It is still slow, because looks like they just add a redirect after resolving normally.
There is nothing new except that a different url appears in address bar.

If instead they show
https://dan.com/buy-domain/keyword.ext
as landing page directly, then it loads instantly.

They have captcha and G analytics scripts which run before
landing page is shown, and I'm not sure if they can be blocked,
or if possible whether they are really blocked when we think they are blocked.
3rd parties shouldn't be able to decide whether I can sell my domains or not.

We are becoming slaves of conveniences offered to us by force.
For example we can't remove batteries of new laptops.
Maybe 1 percent of people don't want unremovable battery,
or to enable javascript..No, customer choices don't count.
Slaves don't have choices. (here not blaming Dan, blaming
dependence on external services)

@DAN.COM or @LaszloSchenk

A while back you guys mentioned that a "Category" feature would be released soon. Any updates on that?

Thanks.

 

[freety85]

the landing pages are still loading slow, for me currently around 13 seconds which may affect sales. @DAN.COM would you guys look into this? thanks

Any example of a domain taking long to load?
