How did you find buyers for these domains?

It would be helpful if you share your experience

 

[infosec3]

Although I have contacted a few potential buyers, sales have increased due to the following change:

I own a little over 400 domain names, which I had parked at different companies, but was not getting anything. So I decided to redirect about 400 domain names to my domain selling site, which is on my signature. As we all know, most end-users do not know about Whois and usually visit the domain they are looking for to see if it is taken.

That is how some of them have landed on my site and contacted me to see how much I was asking for the domain. In addition, I am usually realistic about the value of the domains I own.

Just to share how being realistic on your prices help, last week I reported the sale of AustinBikeRentals.com. When the buyer of that domain name contacted me, I asked for $750 for the domain. He stated it was too much and asked me if I know who owns the singular (AustinBikeRental.com) and how much it was selling for.

He said he was going to find out about the singular and call me back if interested in mine. After our conversation, I went to the singular and saw the owner was selling it for $50,000 (although it has now changed to Make Offer). The end-user called me within one hour stating he wanted to buy my domain, but insisted his company's budget for domain names could not go over $500. I accepted the offer.

In short, I have come to terms with the fact that, although I have a few valuable names, the majority of my domains are neither premium nor high traffic names. I decided to create my own little platform. The site may not look great, since I am not a Web designer and have done what I could. I may hire a designer later on to rebuild the site. After all, domaining is still a hobby for me, since I am very involved with my offline profession. Domaining is the first income generating hobby I have.
