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!

Tell us the features that you want for NamePros Parking because we’re adding new features all year!

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?

This looks different - Accept Offers Always is that a new option?

 

[DN_Hunter]

There seems to be more options on getting email notifications

Yep! The most exciting part of that new feature is that sellers can now disable offers on their buy-now listings.

Thanks to @Elad n, @Skyvisum, @nononsense123, @justlife, @OceanKing, and many others for this suggestion!

You found another great new feature!

Thanks to @DomainRecap for that suggestion.

 

[Eagle Domains]

We'll add a button to the inquiry page for this next to "Send to email"; that'll make it easier to use.

so we change the Price of the domain to $2499 BIN which was >$2499 earlier and then click on the New Button " send to Buyer " which is coming up , Right ?

New features & updates ALERT!​

We finished the final touches last night, but we waited until today to announce them for... reasons. And fun!

In the playful spirit of April 1st approaching (and Easter shortly after that), we're giving everyone an opportunity to discover them in a good old-fashioned Easter egg hunt!
$$ There might even be a prize for whoever 1st posts the most discoveries in this thread. Post one discovery at a time to get credit for being 1st! No penalty for wrong answers. $$

After a little fun, we'll post a big list of our updates and add the noteworthy features to our New Features page.

Have fun!

Really liking the new updates. Waiting for the header with the black background and white text .

The 1st of its Kind! Multi-Domain Catch-All Inbox

 

[DN_Hunter]

Nice feature with the Catch-All inbox! Thank you.

Can we also have a feature to add a TXT record for the names in our account using the Namepros Nameservers? This will allow us to add TXT verification records for other platforms (without having to change the nameservers away from Namepros).

Maybe to start just one-at-a-time (specific domain name), and later a BULK feature for our entire portfolio or a selected group of names.

Sounds good. And with AI as advanced as it is these days, I expect there will be an implementation which works via mental telepathy. Can't wait for that.

Love that! Also, you must have a lot of confidence in your email providers' ability to block spam.

Please share more details about your goal so we can think about how to best provide this.

Simpler lander? Smaller form? No form? Message box? Something else?

Great work so far! We moved our entire portfolio over .

I agree that we need a lander page that does not have an offer section but more of an info section with maybe a message box. I would rather stick to your email form due to anti-spam capability! It's like a quick and dirty form of having a webpage/marketplace/logo before the actual Marketplace gets built out by you guys.

Right now I could set up my main name but the form makes everyone thinks its for sale due to the "make an offer", etc. messages. My main company domain goes nowhere at the moment (old efty 404 not found marketplace page).

For the sake of the shortest development time for this temp thing, maybe the simplest solution could be implemented? Simple tick box on a domain to swap the make an offer portion to message box but leave the rest?

 

[domvault]

any way of monetising domains, while using namepros landers ? have it been discussed, already ?

Stay tuned.

I would be really surprised if you manage to pull a rabbit out of a hat.

I wouldn't put it past them. NP is pretty good with rabbits.

@Bravo Mod Team

Ok it has been a month since you said "Stay tuned."

So do we have to stay tuned for another month ?

Anything you can discuss right now. Anything you can tell. Anything that have been discussed.

Seriously what different are you contemplating other than what other parking companies have tried ?

Or there is nothing on the table right now ?

The community would love to know mate.

Ok it has been a month since you said "Stay tuned."

We’re trying to avoid making the same behind-the-scenes mistakes that other landing services have made. In order to remain free, we need to keep infrastructure costs down while still handling the same level of traffic that other services handle.

Throughout the development of this service, we’ve often found existing technology to be outdated, unmaintained, and poorly equipped to handle the amount of traffic that a modern landing service receives. It’s not unusual for us to find and patch major bugs and vulnerabilities in the software we’re using leading up to a release. Our industry has a habit of playing it fast and loose when it comes to security and data integrity, but that’s just not our style.

It’s going to seem like we’re moving a bit slow at times. It’s frustrating, especially when we’re nearing the finish line only to discover a show-stopping vulnerability days before release. But we’re not going to risk security or data integrity just so we can rush features out the door.
