news NamePros Landers with Buy Now, Escrow.com integration, and much more

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.

Want to see more styles and options? Visit our live demo domains!

Now, let’s talk new features!​

• Buy Now: Add a Buy button with a sales price and payment options for buyers to purchase your domains.
  • Escrow.com (Recommended): Starts an Escrow.com transaction for you and allows the buyer to pay immediately.
  • PayPal: Creates a PayPal transaction for the buyer to pay directly to your PayPal account.
  • Email: You and the buyer use email to choose a payment method (e.g., crypto), discuss lease-to-own (LTO) options, etc.
• Location: Country, region (e.g., state or province), and locality (e.g., city, town, or village) of your inquirers to help you understand where they are located, the best time to contact them, etc.
• Bulk Management: Set options on multiple domains at the same time: prices, payment methods, appearance, etc. using our website's interface or your favorite spreadsheet software (e.g., Google Sheets).
  • Bulk Edit: Export, Edit, and Upload to apply your changes all at once.
• Exports: Download a list of your domains and their settings, customizations, and inquiries, including buyers’ email addresses, offers, etc. (CSV format.)
• Domain Verification: Verify your domains by using any of these methods: name servers (NS), CNAME, or TXT records.
• Supersonic Speed Boost: Our landers already loaded blazingly fast, but now they’re even faster — a powerful increase in performance!
  • For techies: Go, Redis, and Elastic (previously only: PHP and MySQL)

Wait, there’s more!

PRO TIP: There is a common misconception about how many domain sales happen because of marketplaces. In reality, many sales would still happen (and do happen) without the help of a marketplace, so NamePros is providing a free solution to sell domains and you keep 100% of your profit.

Our for-sale parking service is 100% free:​

• No upfront fees
• No monthly fees
• No commission (0%)
• No upgraded account necessary
• 100% of your sales belong to you!

How does all that sound?

[Bravo Mod Team]

Is there a way to create an option to hide paypal and bitcoin as an option.

Yep, there will be an option to choose them soon. Work in progress.

Is this glowing container on the bottom left supposed to be for a captcha?

Yep, that's Google's reCAPTCHA (GR) on the bottom right.

Some browser extensions hide GR's logo, but it still works in our testing.

Could you try submitting the form on nuggies.ninja just to double check?

We'd appreciate it.

The form goes through fine, it just shows a glowing box.

It normally does show on other sites that use it, so I had a feeling it was where that goes. Just looks like a design glitch.

I am using Opera.

 

[Optimal Names]

Will there be a way to reject insane offers like 7.5 billion dollar offers?

I think it would be great to have a maximum offer on each domain and also on the account level if, for example, someone is pretty confident that none of their names will ever fetch over a certain amount.
Related: can we delete or mark leads like this as invisible?

Just out of curiosity, did they confirm their email address?

 

[DN Universal]

Just out of curiosity, did they confirm their email address?

The ones I received are "unconfirmed" emails.

 

[Optimal Names]

Just out of curiosity, did they confirm their email address?

No, they have not in that case. But there have been several cases where confirmed emails that send in crazy off-the-wall offer amounts.

and one where this was actually the BIN and they didnt respond anymore.

Its all those that I'd like to clean up either by deleting them or by hiding them as they're either angry leads and just typing in any random numbers or they're not thinking that clicking that BIN sets off a purchase order.

 

[Bravo Mod Team]

The ones I received are "unconfirmed" emails.

they have not in that case.

Unconfirmed inquiries are a mixed bag. As you noticed, it's more rare with confirmed inquiries, but it can still happen due to confused visitors, human spammers, etc.

Our upcoming Detailed lander (if you enable it) will help a lot toward preventing confused inquiries.

We also have an optional qualifying feature coming that will help filter out low-wage human spammers.

 

[Optimal Names]

It appears that in this case that I presented today, the crazy offer amount = the phone number. I'll go back through the others but perhaps that is something which is happening too. One, which I didnt include above, that was for 999,999,999,999 is maybe the lead just filling the field.

I dont know if "are you sure" messages could be helpful or no. "Are you sure you want to make an almost 1 trillion USD offer?"

Please consider adding a textbox for the inquirer to write an inquiry. Currently when I'm getting e-mails from NP parked pages, I have no idea what they want. I don't know if someone who offered $6000 wants to buy a domain or whatever product the domain name represents. I can imagine that someone offering 7 billion is not a serious buyer, but what about those offering $1? They might have put $1 to start the conversation because, you guessed it, there is no other way to start the conversation.

I am also using another lander that comprises of name, mail, phone and a "message" textbox. It is infinitely more useful, because from what someone wrote I can 99% of the time derive who they are and what they want (and if what they want is my domain). Infinitely, because I haven't sold anything through NP landers so far, but hopefully it will change.

I understand that omission of the textbox was due to fears of spam, so maybe make it optional. In my experience it's not a big problem, whereas confused visitors are far more common and the content of their inquiry would in most cases allow to dismiss the lead without wasting time answering.

 

[Mister Funsky]

@Bravo Mod Team, please take a look at inquiry [ID: 5R389JJZ93D959S9] .

It came thru (got an email) although it is set at 500 min offer. FYI, I have not made any changes to the lander.

 

[SixFigures.ltd]

I've noticed increased traffic from Singapore, is it for me only or just bots from new location?

Happened to me too just today, I think its just some kids play around or whatever

And, for me, a LOT of "you have unpaid tolls due" with Singapore phone numbers in the past month or so.

This was something I was thinking about as well. I was getting ready to put in the short description to direct people to enter a message in the Company field after company name or if no company, just enter a message.
