Undeveloped.com Experience

[JudgeMind]

Has anyone used undeveloped.com to sell domains? They claim to be able to increase a domainers sales by 54%.

Hi Reza,

1. I'm not looking to edit prices specifically. Say I want to edit installment status (or simply view the current settings of a group of domains with domain count > 20-30) or I want to view what is their traffic or how many leads have been received for those domains. Example for the last case: I want to use leads as a factor in determining if I should renew or let expire a soon to expiring domain name or I want to check which of the domains in a given list are already pointed to Undeveloped and which are not so I can fix that and so on.

2. For so many domains, individual search is not practical.
3. I don't want to modify every single domain in my portfolio but only change a smaller set (subset) of my portfolio.

Hi Anant,

Do you have time for a quick Skype? I'd like to learn more about the actual process that you have on a daily basis for which this would be helpful so we can learn more about the core problem you're facing.

Kind regards,
Reza

@Undeveloped is there any API integration available on Undeveloped, or any other way to integrate shop checkout on our domain store, without confusing visitors and redirecting them to some external page?
That would be awesome if we could integrate Undeveloped to our checkout process. Since Undeveloped is providing complete service, we wouldn't need any payment gateways, escrow etc.
Thanks!

Hi Talking.Domains,

We do have an API for managing your portfolio with us but not for the checkout/escrow part. What we do tolerate is for you to use our branding on your domain store to already inform buyers that Undeveloped handles the escrow for you.

You can then easily create links directly to the first step of checkout on your for sale pages hosted by Undeveloped. So when someone clicks on Buy Now in your domain store, they're directly forwarded to the checkout page to complete their purchase via Undeveloped. Let me know help if you need support with the URL structures that you can implement.

Hope that helps,

Reza

For the first time in 2yrs, i have a natural search visit on one of my domains listed on undeveloped but not using there nameservers.

Seems undeveloped is improving in that aspect, or maybe someone want to buy my name from there. Maybe

Very pleased with @Undeveloped this is my third sale there, moved around 500 domains to their landers in November 2017. Super kudos to @Nat Hunt for the original referral.

One disappointing issue - timing. Current deal the buyer paid Friday 2PM Eastern and so we sit and wait out the weekend : bummer :

Is the buyer made aware of the operating hours? This buyer paid within minutes of my acceptance of offer, so it would be super if there was a way to streamline the push and transfer or at least inform the buyer of the expected timeline.

Congrats! Buyers are all informed that we send them the transfer instructions within 24 hours on business days. We also keep track of the tickets in the weekend and help out buyers that are either in the middle of a purchase or require priority support. Later down the road, we'll offer support in the weekend as well but we simply don't have enough tickets to process to justify for the additional expenses that will incur.

Kind regards,
Reza

I am happy with undeveloped customer service, low commission rate and timely payment.
However, I wanted to see two new features for undeveloped marketplace.

1. Option of domain price alert for buyers, if the seller change price of the domain then watchers should be alerted of the new price.
2. Notification of domain expiration for sellers.

Hi Sheraz,

I like option 1, which you mention. I'll add it to our feature request document.

Regarding option 2, this is being implemented as we're becoming a registrar and will start offering registrar services.

Have a great day!

#2: Subtly drops big news - love it.

Looking forward to seeing how you effectively differentiate yourself from the other market players.

Any timeline in mind?

Will definitely try this out as another registrar

Hi. I can't seem to find the Lead Import feature (for reduced escrow %). Mind sharing that page's link?

 

[pinkdragon]

Click on "Sales activity", then you'll it in the right top corner.

We're aiming to go live within 3 months, likely sooner but it depends on some variables (as always in product development ).

Hi Reza!

When registering a domain name with undeveloped and adding it to your portfolio, will it automatically include a salepage in your marketplace?

Kind regards!

Hi Alphadom!

Yes, there will be very easy ways to put for sale domains automatically that you register with us. There also will be a simple button which you can click to instantly change the nameservers to the correct ones and add the domain to your portfolio.

Since we're primarily not a registrar we'll also have a pricing model (cost-price) that you will appreciate. More details will be shared on this topic soon.

Kind regards,
Reza

@Undeveloped

Small Feature Request - Read reports for offer communications for sellers. This could be done via an email sent to seller - so no updates would be needed on the UI.

(I understand in email that people can block the tracking images, but this would still be great when possible)

Just an idea... I try to throw them out there for ya when I have them.

 

[Michael M]

Also can you confirm that after a lead is archived (and buyer never accepted or declined counter offer) - that it can not be accepted weeks/months later by the buyer?

Otherwise - Is there a time limit or way to retract a counter after a certain amount of time?

Great questions + suggestion. I've previously considered the same things, too. Would be fantastic to have this clarified, and the read feature introduced.

Perhaps even directly in the chat window as is the case with iMessage.

Reza, have you ever considered using a font that does not make capital "i" look like lowercase "L"? (And other similar, potentially confusing situations?)

Could this cause a buyer to hesitate, thinking "Am I buying Ldleproductions rather than idleproductions?"

Or am I overthinking this?
