Getting END-USERS for your domain name (My 6-month experiment)

[Eliasaoun]

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share some results from a personal project I’ve been working on and get your honest feedback.

Last year, I developed an AI-driven tool that fetches high-quality END-USER leads for domain names. It studies the domain for keywords, abbreviations, or brandability, and then deeply searches the internet for potential buyers who might actually be "hungry" for that specific asset.

The tool focuses on finding the actual decision-makers and retrieves their direct business emails and their personal numbers.

My Results Over 6 Months

I’ve been testing this on my own portfolio to see if it actually works. Here is the data from 20 domains I processed:

• Average Leads: ~30 per domain (depending on the name).
• Outreach: I contacted around 600 potential leads.
• Engagement: Received 23 replies.
• Sales: I managed to sell 6 domains.
• Total Revenue: $43,200

A quick breakdown of those sales:

• 2 LLLL.coms: $16,600 + $6,000
• 1 Personal Name (Name of the person): $12,500
• 1 Keyword (2 words): $3,800
• 2 Brandables: $2,500 + $1,800

The communication with buyers took between 1 and 7 weeks, and most negotiations were handled via email and WhatsApp.

What the tool collects:

For every domain, I get a report containing:

• Lead Name & Website
• Decision Maker details: Name, Position, Direct Phone, Direct Email, and LinkedIn profile.
• The "Why": The specific buying signal or reason they were identified as a lead.

What do you think?

I’ve achieved excellent results with this so far, but I’m curious to hear from the community. Would you be interested in using a tool like this if I were to make it available to the public?

I'm happy to post a sample report of one of my domains later if anyone wants to see how the data looks. I'd love to hear your thoughts or any questions you might have!

Looking forward to the discussion.

This is a paid ad.​

Hey Elias If you've indeed developed this tool and it's yielding good results, please work on it and improve it further. Why not even offer it as a SaaS service in the market?

thanks for the encouragement.

Frankly, that's what this post is all about. I need to get some feedback on what to improve and check if the community has some affinity to such a service.

I welcome any comments and inquiries

I’m interested in the tool you mentioned—I'd even be open to offering you a share of the revenue if it helps me get started with it.

I’m also really curious how you were able to secure those higher price points. I do a lot of outbound sales and currently bring in around $20–50k a month, but I know I could realistically 5x that if I pushed harder.

In my experience, outbound tends to mean lower pricing, so I’d love to hear how you approached it differently—specifically how you landed on pricing that felt fair and acceptable for both you and your clients.

Hey Elias, the tool is really helpful because outbound contacting takes too much time, especially when you are targeting a niche that is new to you. First, you need to find the person or the company, and then you are not even sure if their email will be seen or not and the majority won't respond. In my point of view, this tool could be very helpful to the community.

Thanks for your insights.

The tool fetches for leads that have high affinity for your domain such as they have new or enough budget, they are restructuring their marketing approach, they made a breakthrough in a field where your domain fits perfectly or is much better than the one they have, etc...

Moreover, it gets direct emails and phone numbers of the decision makers. Dealing with such people is very tricky but once any of them reply, then you know that you have a high probability of securing a deal. Here it is about you and your communication skills to make them reply.

Please.

 

[Eliasaoun]

Please.

Here is a sample report of one domain I'm currently working on: SelfModeling.com

All emails and phone numbers are verified at the time of the research

Awaiting your thoughts after showing you a sample report...

@Eliasaoun i found the report really well structured and organized this tool could be really helpful , you can develop it more and make it as a Saas .
a question did you search if it exists similar tools that are doing nearly the same thing ?

I don't know if there is something similar. But I don't think so.

In all cases, any additional feature that you suggest we can add?

Also, how much should I charge for such reports?

The prices are end user prices. You can always compare with similar domains and check how much it's sold.

In my case I searched for similar domains that their prices really show that they were sold to end users and offered mine at the same price.

Eventually, I sold what i sold at a discount. 20 to 30% less than the searched figures.

Hope this helps

Nice and neat.

I did notice that a number of leads currently have superior or more appropriate names than what you’re offering them.

The tool’s analytics need to take more into consideration how this offer is an upgrade.

IMO.

Also, how much should I charge for such reports?

Around here it’s not so popular to lay out money on a chance.

Until the program proves itself, consider offering it for free while respectfully asking for a commission on future sales.

Just tossing that idea out, of course it might not work for your model.

Good luck.

Thanks for your feedback.

It is to be noted that getting such private information costs a lot of money.

Asking for a commission of a future sale is something that I don't have any control of.

Thanks for your thoughts one more time.

Hunter io available.

 

[Scotty205]

It looks like a really good tool that I would be interested in trying out. Hunterio is on the market and it's decent, you can get 24,000 credits for like $34.00. Maybe you could do $49 month/plus $100 per closed deal.

The thing is it is really easy to reverse-engineer it.

The thing is it is really easy to reverse-engineer it.

That's true but it costs money. And you need to pay monthly subscription fees and optimise every step of the process.

You can either reverse engineer it and make the investment whether it's time, know how, or money, OR use the tool that's already present.
