FLIPPA: IS IT WISE TO SELL DOMAIN NAMES THERE?

[Haroon Basha]

Flippa is charging $ 25 for listing a domain name. Paying more is not a problem provided they give good exposures to the name and better search optimization in their system. But the fact is by paying $ 25 you are not even get a 10 Views or a couple of Watchers. I can say proudly that NamePros is many times better than Flippa as far as RESPONSE is concerned. We can sell more domain names here than Flippa.

Moreover, they deleted the comments section; thereby virtually you cannot send any message during the listing period. What a insane decision indeed.

I really have high regard for Flippa, its cordial and prompt staff for their instant services, but why the management is silent with regard to so many criticisms against it with regard to increase in listing charges, curtailment of service, low response rate etc?

Domain name industry is going on a tough period these days, in this situation Flippa's decision to hike the listing fees is really ridiculous.

For those of you that have sold domains on Flippa, is it better to use auctions or domain classifieds?

9 to list was already bad for what u got

so we can all do math for 25

imo flippa is a dead end..id not be suprised if they close shop in next few years. their approach is just wrong

I'm sure that good quality names will continue to sell on Flippa.

But they'll be a much better deal for the buyers than sellers.

The more I think about their new roll out, the more certain I am that it will fail inside of 18 months.

Besides, the main payment option is Flippa Escrow now?

Way too limited in this day and age.

Perhaps Freelancer can buy them like they did with Escrow.com.
