poll How frequently do you sell domain names?

[abstractdomainer]

Irrespective of the amount of sale (amount being greater than $250), how frequently do you sell a domain name?

 

[phaethon]

I Sell domain names almost Daily.

I see you sell 4LLLL very cheap, what is your profit?

Yes, I sell very cheap. I am keeping lower margin, say minimum 10% NET profit. Thereby selling more names.

Option 7. Never. Domaining is about profit, not just sales. Why no option for never?

Think of this poll as for those who do sell. If you can't select the minimum one, i.e. 1 in 5 years, then the poll is not for you.

I think people here should also write their portfolio size next to the amount of domains they sell.
Otherwise it does not show the whole picture but rather distorted one.

Less frequently than you spam this forum with another unprofound question that has already been answered many, many times.

 

[Haddi Zak]

You said you own around 50k domains.

50,000 * 9 (renewal avg) = $450,000 / year = $37,500 / month.

Am I missing something?

I checked his sales on NAMEPROS and his portfolio is majorly based on .de .eu or .nl etc so maybe their renewals or transfer fee is less than that of .com

Sorry, how many domains do You have before and now after dropping them? My question is related to the fact that I still don't know if I should do this, so I am interested in statistics and personal experience of other domainers

I have gone from around 5000+ domain names to around 450. This learning curve is important in my book. Those names all gave me some truths about this marketplace.

It's hard to tell what to drop. Read all you can in this forum. The names are valuable in many ways and in many different geographical regions. It's hard to tell without seeing a specific domain name.

Hand regs are supposedly impossible but I just registered a great one today, inspired by something my young son said to me.

Thanks for answering!
It is very important for me.
I followed the link of your profile and found that you are positioning all the SH domains. Tell me honestly, does it make sense? Have you ever received the promised 10% of the sale of a domain that does not belong to you if customers first went to your page, and then bought another domain? I only position my personal domains, so I am interested in your opinion. According to the team, if I position all the SH domains, I will have more chances, since then my domains will also be displayed in other domainers portfolios

Not true. I have some domains there and I wonder why. Squadhelp is an experiment with 50 domains.

I have NordicDomains.se and also use many of the names I aquire. So the selling is not my main line of business. If you want to make sales regularly then you need a LOT of decent names in your portfolio at any given time.

I turn down many domain purchase requests.

Im Giving Domain Investing a Second Try , First time i tried i sold 2 domains in 2 yrs and almost Broke even on Money Invested

I selected "Every week" but where is "Every day" option for those who sells daily.

You sell 'Every day'?! You must be a terrific domainer!!!

I sell every week.
I asked about the "every day" option just in case some domainer wants to select that option.

6k per month? I do not think there is any entity on earth that sells that many - not even HugeDomains.

The range was in referece to average renewal fees. It is close to $6k/month.

I believe HD might be selling that many. They probably have 8-9 million names and at 1% STR they are selling 80k to 90k names every year (6.7k to 7.6k per month)

Thanks for sharing that. There are those with very large portfolios, with regular sales. I wonder if your case is more the average of what those on this forum really experience.
For myself, over the approximately past ten months of finally seriously trying to sell the domains, three sales have happened. This is with a small portfolio that I was trying to slim down, and appears to be falling in the estimated annual 1-2% STR that folks generally say to expect. My hopes had been higher...

Too many to mention. Some I have dropped and gotten offers of 3000 USD a month later.

Just got an offer today for 2800 USB for a domain which I was thinking about dropping on it's expiry date. Have been negotiating from 2000 USB with this buyer so the sale is assured. It's a niche domain in a scandinavian language.

There are no guarantees or timelines in this business.

2800 USD of course.
