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.

  • Exports: Download a list of your domains and their settings, customizations, and inquiries, including buyers’ email addresses, offers, etc. (CSV format.)

Yes, we began adding it a while ago (it's half done), but then it was deprioritized a few times. It may be time to prioritize it again.

Thanks for letting us know it's important to you.

Add domains are not updating. It works now.
Glad it's working again. It was probably just backed up a bit at the time. Sometimes, the queue gets very large with lots of user-generated updates. If it ever takes more than an hour, please let us know.

Thank you.
Wot I do see is that you will be getting thousands of new names added to NP's over the next couple of weeks are you ready for what is likely to be a huge influx?
First inquiry, and on a one word .com with an opening offer of $1!

Not celebrating yet!:xf.grin:

Hey, I really like the landers, I'd just like to suggest the feature of allowing potential buyers to send a short message along with their offer amount, it could be useful. What do you think?

Unless you enjoy receiving spam, I'd pass. I guess they could make it optional.

Contrary to you, I am not a fan of the lander.

Yes, an area for a BRIEF note would be helpful.

The landers have yeilded many offers and BINs but as of now, but none have completed. I've got a Godaddy checkout link out there now that expires in a few days that might go thru.

Many inquiries come from people that have a very similar name and they are wanting to know who is behind my domain. Others said they became frustrated and pulled the trigger on the BIN (regardless of price) just to get someone to answer a question about the name.

Bottom line is if they had a box (once verification is complete) to enter a sentence or two, it would keep me from looking at new Indian motorcycles when I see someone has agreed to pay the BIN. :ROFL::xf.cry:>:(

I agree, I'd like them to be able to leave a note/message. Since most of my names are make offer with a minumum before I see the email, that helps prevent seeing spam.

It will work when you first add your .de domain to NamePros Parking. NamePros will then include your .de domain in their authoritative nameservers, allowing the pre-delegation check by DENIC to succeed.

I've had no issue with spam so far, and that's because the landers use Google's Recaptcha (even though I'd personally recommend Cloudflare's Turnstile), so it prevents bots from sending the form.
I doubt you tried the landers if that's your issue.

I guess they could make it optional.
That's what I had in mind.

I wouldn't give my opinion if I was not using them.

Recaptcha is useless because most inquiries come from dead-end humans using throw-away emails to obtain your credentials.

If I cannot positively identify a prospective buyer, I don't bother replying. Adding a field for them to spam you with their real intentions is not something I want or need.

Making it optional would be the way to go, but I wouldn't use it myself.

I agree, I would not use it either.

I already get some interesting free-form in the business name field LOL.

Lots of unconfirmed leads with no way to identify these people but I still do like to see 100% of the data.

We’re adding a “Contact seller” option for priced domains. To start, it won’t have an input box, but that’s certainly something we can consider as an option. 😊

Any ideas on what we could add to help determine which unconfirmed leads may be worth a second look?

Its really up to the person willing to fill out that form I think. Not sure what could be on on the NP side, to be honest.

Having tried out the form myself its quite clear that they have to confirm so I do not think its the form, itselt, but why they do not is perplexing.
