Is it worth to be on the featured listing on Sedo?

[AbsoluteKC]

Hi all,

I would like to have your comments on whether it is worth the money (USD $39) to put your domain for sale on the sedo front page?

Has anyone uses this service before? Or is it better to go for its category showcase ($9)?

Any comments / advise will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

i have used the Featured listing and it did not seem to be worth a single penny.
just me 2 cents though

This has been fully discussed before but personally I don't think it is worth it unless the domain is premium.
Junk is junk, even in the showcase. But again, if your domain is great, should give it a try . Good luck.

As said before, use it if you have a great domain, don't waste your money otherwise. I have 2 domains in the category featured and I only see a few more views per month without it. Looking at all of the Home Page featured domains, it seems like only the really good ones get sold, and the lower-brow ones don't receive that many views.

If you still want to try, pick your best domain, and shell out the $9 to test it out.

Thanks for the comments.

What I'm afraid of is that my domain is quite new so potential buyer will not see any traffic to it... so it kinds of like depreciate its value.. Think maybe i should park the domain at NameDrive and sell it at sedo

I wouldn't pay the money. I tried to get a featured listing about a month ago. Sedo took my money but failed to list my domain. I finally had to send a request through paypal to get my money back. I've heard that your domain will get more traffic if you list on the featured section, but there is no guarantee you will acutally sell the domain. Paying $39 is a pretty high price for listing in the featured section IMO.

Keep your $39 and use it elsewhere.

Have done 2 and 1 of them spent only 4 hours on the frontpage!!!
