Efty.com Review

[MapleDots]

I am thinking of trying https://www.efty.com/

I'm wondering if I can get some pros and cons from members.

I have almost 300 domains so these some of the items I would like to discuss before signing up.

1. Getting the information in via excel seems to be the best option, is that correct?

2. Do I have to transfer the domain to efty or just change nameservers?

3. If I only change name servers then I have added more work because I have to maintain dates and prices in efty plus watch my registrar.

4. They seem to be in bed with Escrow and the buy now function looks like it depends on that. Is there another way to do buy now? I have my own payment processing machine and I use it or bank transfers.

5. Are there any other costs other than the quoted monthly fee.

6. Even using the excel spread sheet it looks like an awful lot of work to get everything in when there are 300 domains involved. Is it worth the time and effort on top of information already supplied by my registrar?

7. Is there a similar service and how do their tools compare?

8. Uniregistry looks like it may have similar services and ultimately it would be easier to manage the domains right from the registrar but I'm not hot on paying a 15% commission on sales. Discuss Uniregistry advantages if any.

PLEASE NOTE: Stay on topic here because I don't want to clutter up this thread with bantering.

If you have any legitimate questions about Efty to add please continue the red numbering sequence with the next number starting at #9.

just emailed a lot of potential buyers who inquired about my domains months ago buy never clicked on the confirmation link. I hope they're still interested

You can still see the offers if they do not confirm the email. Go to INSIGHTS / INQUIRIES

NOTE: I have the lowest paid plan on an annual subscription -- so not sure if that feature is there for the Trial version...

Wow. What a ridiculous thing. Stop the requirement and allow the inquiries to go through Efty!

 

[DaveX]

I do know as well with Efty when you do an offer it requires the person to confirm there email with a link. if they don't YOU never get the message. plus/minus to this as it controls spam BUT if it is someone that is not computer savoy they may never confirm that email and you will never see the offer

Yes, but I can see even the ones that didn't confirm.

Looking at my insights> inquiries I have had 1455 inquiries since June 21
Some legit but I am sure glad they are not getting through to me unless verified.
100's of inquiries on sept 18-19

Funny thing is I had an inquiry and sale in October and cant see it on the list

On Oct 8, 2017, at 11:08 AM, Efty <[email protected]> wrote: You have a new confirmed inquiry!

Guess when I deleted the name, the inquiry got deleted from their system

I agree the spam or confirmation request is a good thing as me to would hate to get all that spam BUT on the flip side like some said you can still see the request but if you dont log in often you could miss out.

Maybe a notification can be sent to us that an OFFER is pending so that will tell us to log in and check it out IF they have not confirmed their email say like in 24-48 hours

"Hello. Well I have got another domain. I'm not interest for now to get this domain name. Thank you a lot. Appreciate"

"Hello. Well I have got another domain. I'm not interest for now to get this domain name. Thank you a lot. Appreciate"

did they ever give you an offer from the first request? if not they may not have been able to pay for it anyway...Think of it in those terms

Yep, $200 initial offer for a first name .io .. The name is middle eastern and the buyer wanted to buy because it's his first name. No big worries but it's obvious I lost a sale.

Hi guys,

Please check whether all your domains are correctly redirecting to YOUR default landing page or not.

I recently bought a domain that was previously owned by another efty user and they haven't removed it from their marketplace, I have added the domain to mine and set the nameservers but it redirects to the other user's landing page! I have contacted Doron and I'm sure he will sort this out.

That's a big problem we have here. If Efty starts removing domains that expire from the marketplace than we will have to re-add them after renewal. And what if someone sells a domain to a re-seller but doesn't remove it from his efty marketplace?

Check all your domains guys.

Oh wow! Thanks for this. I see all kinds of inquiries I wasn't aware of. Very cool feature. Talk about a pleasant surprise! I'm going to be busy tonight! Lol

Hi everyone. To prevent hijacking of other's For-Sale landing pages we have a review system in place for newly added domains that are also listed in another user account. So whenever you add a domain name to your account that is already listed in another Efty user his account it is placed under review. You can check this by looking at the Status of your domain name in your Efty account. Instead of Portfolio it will say "Under review"

Our system then performs a Whois lookup to try and verify the most recent owner of the domain name and once done the domain name will show the correct For-Sale landing pages. This usually gets done within a very short time but sometimes we are unable to verify ownership right away because the Whois is not yet showing you as the owner of the domain just yet - which is what happened in @Haris his case.

If you find that a newly added domain name is Under review in your account you can always email [email protected] with proof of ownership to speed up the verification process.

Look out for absent contact email on recent submissions. I have told Efty.

Been a while since I have been on this topic but I visited Efty today and saw they has a $19.95 plan that includes a white label.

Does that mean it removes the Efty favicon as well as the Efty branding?

Question two: can the favicon be customized?

It removes the Efty branding in the footer of your marketplace site. Some examples can be seen at https://www.namegalaxy.com/, https://az.xyz or https://brandablebusiness.com/ - allowing for a custom favicon is a logical next step towards more customization.

It seems I can't edit the post above. Just wanted to mention that a custom favicon is included now.

 

[MapleDots]

Perfect, I was going to rub that in a bit. You're asking $19.95 for a white label site. For that kind of money monthly it had better be a white label site.

Really glad to see it's been implemented.

I don't post every single sale... but EFTY has been awesome! Have had many sales come through the landing pages, especially when forwarded to my site's domains' offer pages.
