Now I am not a newbie anymore - $450 sale.

[Fleege]

Hello my NP friends - Got my first good sale this week.

Sold a domain for $450. One that really has not much value to anyone else than the end user buyer. I am very happy about it.

Sure - I have had a few sales but I dont sell names cheap since I just dont think its worth the time sellin gunder $50. I rather let them expire really. But many here know that I have also not focused on selling names but getting them to pay for themselves by taking parking very seriously. And it's working.

It's great to a get a good sale. I'm in the domain club now. That covers now many of my newbie mistakes that have and are expiring. Thanks for all the great threads I have read here.

Cheers,

"Now I am not a newbie anymore" once you realize you will always be new to domains and there is something to learn everyday will you no longer be a newbie. - confucius

 

[Fleege]

yeah - thats why I still after all this time think I am new. The learning curve NEVER stops. Michelangelo went back to school at 80.

+ in this biz. Change is the only constant.

Unfortunately Robert originally bought the domain for $2000. :D

That first three figure sale always feels good.

Glad to here you are working hard on your parking. To many people think that you just park a domain and the money will come.

I've been up for over 36 hours right now tweeking my high traffic domain settings at name drive, and I have pulled many up to 60 and 70% click conversion rates.

Some are now getting a 100% click through.

Congrats... but to be honest I always feel like a newbie in the domain business...
(the industry keeps amazing me)

Congratulations---I am still waiting on the mid xxx sale---I have sold about 6 this week for the first sales of mine but all in the 20 and 30 range.
That has to be a great feeling

How do you know this?? Did you do some research or something. And why do you feel you need to tell everyone? He just said he made a sell, not that he profited from the sale.

It was a joke...

 

[VisualArtistFrankBonilla]

Nope

No, you are not a newbie anymore. I would take a $xxx sale any, and everyday!

Great news

Ohh, sorry to be blunt but I thought you were trying to steal his shine and I just hate it when people try to knock others down. I always speak up!

Sorry for the comment....Ha ha funny.

Yeah I remember my first mid $xxx sale really started me going as well. That's when I started getting more serious about my domains.

Which was htmltalk.com btw.
