Hey, domain sellers! 👋

We have a special surprise for you.

Continuing from last year (and last week), we have some exciting updates to share with you about NamePros Parking Landers!

First, consider this:

You price your domain name at $2,500. For years, hundreds of interested buyers want to buy it, but the price is too high for them. They don't even try to contact you because they don't realize that the price is negotiable or may change. Years later, you decide to lower the price to $995. How many previously-interested buyers would buy it at this lowered price? You’d never know — until now!

With our new Buy Now options, you can finally contact those previous buyers to increase your sales opportunities. 💸

Here’s how:

Our landers have an option that requires buyers to confirm their email address before they can see the price. Once confirmed, the price is available to them and their email address is available to you. Simple and effective. Learn more on DNW.com.

Domain import is not working even though the nameservers are correct. The domains resolve to the correct lander, but I get the following message; "Did you park this domain name? Log in now..."

That likely indicates that the import succeeded, but verification is not (yet) done or completed.

Are the domains visible in your NamePros Parking dashboard? What's the status there?

What do you see in the Imports section?

They are now visible and verified in my dashboard. It seems to have resolved itself.

Thank you for your suggestions; we appreciate them! We've reached out to Escrow.Domains a couple times.

It might help encourage them to make it happen sooner if more of their customers, like you and others, reach out to let them know that you'd also like their escrow services integrated with NamePros Landers.

Every little bit helps. :)
No Stevan is well aware and does not need to be contacted again, he is busy overhauling their tech and their sites. He is well aware of this I have spoken to him twice.

Just want to take this moment to thank the team for setting up a free lander for members.It would help save us from the crazy commission out there .Smart acquisitions will definitely bring in the leads as long as we put in the work,offers will come in.

Got a serious inbound of almost mid 4 figures. I expect a positive result at the end .I am patient and maybe when next you see a reported sales from me.,it would be the inbound lead 🙏


@Bravo Mod Team ,make sure you don't get tempted by GD to sell this platform because, I know they have their people observing as things unfold here .

This is an appreciation post for using your lander and I can get to see my leads and not leave to a platform that have stalled and ruined countless sales .

Wishing you all successful inbound leads sales and to enjoy your investment without paying too much commission out there .

Hi @Bravo Mod Team,

Can the minimum offer be adjusted on an individual domain basis? If not, could this be implemented?

Thanks

Yes, it's an edit option on each domain name:

Please let us know if you have any additional questions or suggestions.

Thanks!

Hello @Bravo Mod Team !

Not sure if this has been mentioned but could there be a way to automatically have an interested buyer's lead details sent to DAN's 5% "import lead". Either the buyer could initiate it or we (seller) could initiate it manually. Or it could be an automatic setting since the lead chose to make the BIN offer...

Essentially a 1-click method of and all pertinent lead deals imported into DAN for them to take over the payment and transfer process? Basically a way to automate BIN offers where negotiations are not generally necessary because they chose BIN.



The reason I ask is almost right after setting up a domain to test I actually received 4 inquiries! Two inquiries were from the same person in Germany where one was an inquiry and minutes later she made the BIN offer. Another inquiry came in from Germany and an inquiry from Spain. There was only one phone number entered, on the BIN but it doesnt seem its a real phone number. Country code seems to be USA and not Germany. Format length is wrong, etc. But I investigated as best I could and there is a strong likelyhood all 4 are from the same company.

The issue was that all of this activity ironically occurred when I was away for the first time in 5 years. We went away for a little over a week and not in Internet access for much of the trip so when I did log in I didnt see the inquiry emails - they were buried with the other forum emails and I do get a lot of emails for that.

By the time I could get the lead imported into DAN and repond personally to the buyer who made the BIN offer it was another week.

So it seems that lead had time to develop cold feet / second thoughts because there has been no response to two emails since.

Also, where can we send suggestions for features and such, is here OK or an email to someone?

Thanks!!
Anthony

In the grand chessboard of domain name negotiations, White starts with the unconventional move 1. Pawn to $4,073,411,015. Black, stunned, ponders for a moment before responding. Black counters with a decisive move: "Bishop to $10,000. Let’s play on a more realistic board!"

There would always be things like these but some fail to confirm their email. I never respond.

Has anyone connected a Google Tag for analytics? If so, how long before it began to collect and display analytics?

It has been 6 hours since I created the tag and I confirmed right away that my tag is accurately shown on all of my domain landing pages.

Iv'e made visits myself and I know these names have high traffic so there should have been something by now - no?

Am I being impatient? This is the message I see:

BTW, I have performed a "test" on a specific domain landing page, which is verified at NP parking since end of June, and I definitely see the tag. but get this message:

Dan is shutting down, but we plan to add additional checkout/payment methods, such as AtomPay and Efty Pay.

What do you like most about Dan's "import lead" instead of using Escrow.com for less? The checkout process is immediate with our Escrow.com integration.

Your feedback will help us prioritize.

Also, where can we send suggestions for features and such, is here OK
This thread is the best place for now. 😊
