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.

Now, let’s talk new features!​

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

The lander need to make some changes to show making offer at the front page.
The "Start Conversation" option should change to "Making Offer" because if you click on "Continue" without checking Start Conversation, the "Offer" will not show up.
Seller can make more sales if this can be changed.

We could add an option for this, but note that explicitly having a "Make offer" option tends to decrease buy-now purchases because it encourages buyers to negotiate even when they would have otherwise purchased at BIN.

If the buyer can't afford the BIN, then "Start conversation" provides a path for them to discuss payment plans, ask about a lower price, etc.

The best strategy to increase sales is to use our "Price available" setting so you know if a buyer was interested, and if they don't buy, then you can contact them to negotiate a lower price.

That option also shows "Make offer" to the buyer, just like you want, after they press "Show price" and confirm their email address.

To me this option will get more buyers.
Make an offer only shows up when you turn it on.

This is sedo landing. Most marketplaces show the offer option.

Most marketplaces show the offer option.
We have that with PriceAvailable.com:

Which leads to:

That can be configured in your account's settings.

Do you think that showing "Make offer" on the 1st page is a better strategy? If yes, please share why so we can assess the priority of this type of option.

Thanks.

Buyers always want to buy cheap and not everyone will want the Buy it now price.
They will engage in the conversation if they see they can make an offer.
Just change the "Start Conversation to "Make an Offer" if the offer option is turned on.
From Afternic I have more people sent offers than Buy it now.
The Seller still have the option to turn the Make an Offer off.
This is an easy change, just replace the Start Conversation with Make an Offer.

Many sellers have expressed to us (in this thread) that they don't want "Make offer" on their BIN landers, even if they're open to lower offers, because it implies desperation. Therefore, we'd have to make it a setting for this text change.

Agreed, this would be easy to do. There are thousands of easy changes we could make like this, so we still have to be mindful about whether they make sense. Otherwise, we end up with more options than sellers have time to read.

Could you share why our "Price available" setting isn't the perfect solution to this?

We're happy to add this option for you. We just want to understand why.

With Price available buyers will think the price is high and would not bother unless they are REAL SERIOUS about the name. With Buy It Now and Make an Offer the Buyers know the range that they can afford.
The same thing happens on Ebay Buy It Now with an option Make an offer.
This apply to ALL market not just domain name. Ebay is not dumd.

What do you think about being able to set any text you want there?

Yes. That would be more flexible and better.
I would post "Namepros members don't bother. This name is worth more than $10"

You must get pay by the hours. You stretch a 10 minutes job to 10 days.
I will lose many sales until you get it done.
