Showcase & Discuss your SedoMLS Premium Experience

I really do like Sedo and their Marketplace to buy and sell domain names

but i have no clue about the SedoMLS Premium program

so what,s your Experience ?

did you ever sold a domain over SedoMLS Premium ?
does it make sense ?

Hey all,

Also in response to this thread.

Sedo total MLS sales were just over 20% of our total sales in November 2019, so it is an extremely effective way of selling domains.

All the best.

Yes, GoDaddy is NOT covered by MLS.
So majority of potential buyers on your domains - out of the game.

I can recall the only one .BIZ sale for $333 at 20% in 2013 via GoDaddy (in the past GD was in SedoMLS network, but later GD stopped all relations with SedoMLS).

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

MLS is always at 20%.

10% only for direct visitors to your BIN domains parked on Sedo.

 

[Wali Dahot]

i saw some post here on NP that some people sold domains via SedoMLS in the past

Searching Sedo MLS in report completed sales thread of namepros shows total 4 sales only. One in 2018 and three in 2017.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Never as of today.

p.s. Without GoDaddy coverage - it is almost useless.

If you received bid via MLS at 20% - then very probably your domain was found via one of their WHOIS partners...

Some registrars also participate in MakeOffer domains.

If I used sedo nameserver and domain listed buy now price ( self not activated Sedo MLS)

Commission rate -
• 10%
• 20% ( if buyer used Sedo MLS link )
I am right ???

@Sedo

Hi Jmaurya,

Thanks for the comment.

If your domains are sold through Sedo MLS ( our multi listing service) then the commission fee of 20% will apply to the sale. If you would like us to look into this for you further to confirm it was an MLS sale, then please send an email to [email protected] from the email address registered with your Sedo account and one of our customer support team members will look into it for you.

All the best.
Chris

@Sedo
Force your registrars/partners to NOT cache MLS prices...
For example, already 1 week elapsed since I updated my prices on Sedo - but Namecheap still shows OLD prices...

@tamar
I also 2 times reported this issue to your team (last month and this month) - and no any changes!

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

One more significant minus of SedoMLS - it is NOT unified...
Many registrars in Sedo network are showing just domains in some TLDs at their own choice and ignore all other MLS eligible TLDs...

Just 1 example: check at Name.com any .ONE domain (where BIN is set on Sedo)...
And you will get only "taken" message. Even if your .ONE domains are managed by PremiumMLS registrar.

Hi 88.88,

You can forward visitors of your page to a landing page which is essentially the offer overview page from our marketplace itself. You can link your domain, directly from your registrar account to your domains offer page, you can link to the offer page: http://www.sedo.com/search/details.php4?domain=DOMAIN.TLD. You need to make sure that "DOMAIN.TLD" is replaced by the domain name you want to sell. When viewers click on this link they will be redirected to the domain's offer page at Sedo.

Or you can park the domain and activate our sales lander which would forward any visitors of the domain to one of our sales lander templates which look different to the offer overview above and look something like the picture attached.

The sales lander was designed to be minimalistic which is why there may be certain information like the offer description that does not show on it even though it shows on our offer overview landing page. Regarding the hyperlinks in the offer description, I fear this is an old FAQ that has not been updated. This does not happen anymore I apologise for this and will request it be updated.

With regards to your questions about Sedo MLS, our service can work in conjunction with Afternics Premium service. In order to activate MLS Premium however you must use Buy Now and not Make Offer.

If you have any further questions, please could you contact our support team directly via [email protected].

All the best.
Chris

Hi 88.88,

I spoke with our Tech Team and they said the services work together, but if you have activated Sedo MLS Premium and are having issues with activating Afternics Premium service, I can not give you support on this. Im sure those guys will help you out if you contact them with your query.

All the best.

SedoMLS Premium Program sounds good and simple

 

[Michael Ehrhardt]

wow...that,s not much

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

@Sedo
This stats is very relative...
What % of MLS sales from all your sales no less than $1K?
In other words - exclude all 2/3figure transactions and recalculate it...

[Jurgen Wolf]

I’ve always had this doubt: if I list with SEDO a domain for MLS sales, does this generates a new 60 days lock from my registrar ?

Once I started the process to list (to test) one of my domains with SedoMLS but the mail I received from Tucows was so long that I was scared about the consequences and did not proceed

Thank you for your answer.

Hi 88.88,

Thanks for your comment.

A 60 day lock would only apply if you transfer your domain to one of the eligible Sedo MLS Premium partners in order to activate the service. If you have not newly transferred the domain then it will not be locked.

Once you start the Sedo MLS Premium activation process in your Sedo account. The domain will show in your domain management as (waiting for approval). Your registrar will need you to confirm the request and will contact you either via email or via a notification in your registrars interface in order to verify your SedoMLS Premium activation. Please do not be put off for this, you should respond to this verification request to complete the activation process. After you have confirmed the activation with your registrar, Sedo MLS Premium will be activated on the domain. Only once you agree to your registrars activation and terms and conditions of MLS Premium, Sedo will be notified and Sedo MLS Premium can then be activated on the domain.

If you have any other questions just let us know.

All the best Chris

I moved almost all my domains to Sedo mls and I have further questions


It is not clear to me what is the difference between what Sedo calls " domains sales lander" (I need to set up my DNS of my domain) and the Sedo landing page where I can redirect visitors to the domain name (I need to set up redirect of my domain).


It seems that it is not possible to include the offer description in the domains sales lander but it is possible to do in the Sedo landing page. Is there a reason?

Is there any advantage, or not, to be in one, or the other, of these different situations, Sales lander / Landing Page? Both describe the sale status of the domain, you can buy directly, choose language, the only difference I can see is about domain description which is visible only at Sedo landing page.


In Sedo help center I also read "Hint! If you have any other specific/related domains for sale that you would like to advertise, include them in the offer description. After saving your changes, a check takes place to verify that the domains are listed for sale within your Sedo account; if they are, we will automatically create hyperlinks to each domain's offer page." but this seems not to work, no hyperlinks are generated at Sedo landing page, am I wrong ?


Is it possible to set both Sedo mls and Afternic Premium and switch from time to time between them ?

I wanted to try and set BIN price on same domains at Afternic, after I had set ”make offer” option on Sedo, but it seems that my provider is not sending me authorization mails for Afternic Premium probably because blocked from the previous mls authorization which goes in conflict.
