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.

@DAN.COM still waiting for registrar services.
Is anything known about prices for register, renewal and transfer domain names?

 

[topdom]

Google or its analytics scripts seem to be preventing Dan domain landing pages from loading in less than 20 seconds. We should be allowed to remove those scripts, because if domains don't sell just because of those scripts, then I don't care how much traffic they get... It is like you have a house but someone else has the key.
Why depend on someone else just to make a site work normally. Pages should load even if tracking/dataharvesting scripts have problems with some ISPs. Why get persmission from Google first, or make things depend on good relationship between Google and my ISP and many other ISPs... This can also partly be about my (people's) default search engine on browser which I can change but can't remove. Anyway, it is Dan's responsibility to fix this; not mine, or Google's (or any other external service), or default search engines of browsers of visitors.

Hi,

Any way to change the listing currency for a subset of domains (in bulk)?

the problem is that since months a customer cannot see the price in his prefered currency, with old template it was possible.

Not good
In any case, imo, from sellers end it still makes sense to setup either BIN or min. offer in lets say Euros for domains which are EU-related (Geo, domain language, etc --> potential buyer is more likely from EU). Especially with the bug your mentioned: let EU-based buyer of EU-themed domain see the price in Euros from the very beginning...

@DAN.COM why don't you fix the stupid VAT bug in the help text of the German Landing Page?
we have 19% VAT not 21% as shown as example in your help text

that is a minor annoying bug
fix will take 2 minutes at best

asking for several month

is that stupidity? or simple arrogance?

https://dan.com/buy-domain/domain.tld
loads instantly,
but
https://domain.tld
loads in 30 seconds or more.
Dan should fix this, .. I mean, if they can't make domains
using ns1/ns2/dan.com/undeveloped.com load fast,
they should allow us to choose ns3.dan.com, ns4.dan.com as nameservers
and in that case domains should resolve to landing pages under dan.com,
instead of domain.tld.

Nowadays all businesses seem to be trying to screw their own businesses,
and ignore warnings for a long time.

Good morning Tonyk2000,

This is not offered yet but a new change to the portfolio is being finalized as we speak. Once released it will allow your to change the currency in bulk, amongst others.

Have a great day.

Good morning @topdom,

Could you share some details on what browser you use, where you are located, and how you enter the name in Google for example? When I search for any domain name like antiwet.com it loads instantly.

 

[topdom]

a recent firefox, and you know the rest. traffic dropped on all domains, so it is not about me. if I'm cured, this problem will still exist. There is an easy solution, showing landing pages under Dan.com instead of domain itself.

I have no problem displaying landers through firefox

Have you tried using the Dan forwarding option to see if it makes any difference?

Dan forwarding option? What is it.
I can forward domains to landing pages under dan.com domain, but it would take enormous amount of time.

The last option under For Sale Pages in Settings:

Host your for sale pages on Dan.com​

This may not solve your problem, but it does forward to the dan.com landing page, and no longer displays the domain URL in the browser.

next

 

[topdom]

Great info. For now I will wait to see some improvement on Dan side.

 

[Embrand]

@DAN.COM it would be great if you could have a feature where we can purchase logos for our landing pages and have them automatically added to the page in the right size and format. Just like e.g. SquadHelp and Alter offer.

Of course I know we can order logos elsewhere and upload them, but it would be nice to have it as an integrated service.

Unless you show an example of a domain taking 30 seconds or more, difficult someone could help

Kinda missed the point there.

Regardless of reason, any buyer on Dan can post the most vile and profane-ridden comments they please, over and over and over and over, and the seller has no ability to close the transaction or block the (cough) buyer. Each of their comments is followed up by an email alert, again over and over and over and over, and sellers are forced to endure the abuse and wait for a Dan support email to be answered and acted upon.

Other sales venues like Sedo allow the seller to immediately end the transaction and then you can report the user for abuse - it takes about 1 second to nip a situation like this in the bud.

I had a real pest on one of my names (incessant troll contact) and another foul language. Both were blocked when I complained to DAN.

I know, but why should we have to complain and then wait 24hrs for support to close down these jerks?

Buyers already have the ability to end transactions, so why not sellers? One more incident like this and I am switching all DNS traffic back to Sedo.
