Wix.com vs Dan.com

[Dream Domains]

I use my own beautiful landers for $9 per month at wix.com, which has thousands of beautiful designs to choose from.

I did not sell a single domain on dan.com but had a lot of headache with fake buy it now transactions.

Dan - no
Wix - yes

I would say that 15%-25% commission platforms are for uneducated consumers.

What are your thoughts on eyeballs? Do you understand that more eyeballs usually = more sales? And that 75%-85% of something is better than 0% of nothing?

Why pay Wix when for the same amount/month you can have full control, better statistics, more sales, better looking landers and so forth... = more profit.

On a sidenote:

I use my own beautiful landers

Beauty is at the eyes of the beholder. It's not about landers being beautiful, it's about conversion. Wix doesn't instill trust, instead makes you look cheap, sub-par, desperate.

Same cost, better options freely available.

Your eyeballs (traffic) goes to your landing page. With Dan, your traffic may click on Dan logo and see over 4 000 000 domains for sale from other sellers, so you loose eyeballs. With your own lender, all your traffic sees only your domains.

Plus, if someone inquires about one of your domains via Wix.com, you know who is inquiring.
You can get back to this entity at any time via follow up. With Dan, you do not know who is inquiring.
Plus with Dan, you can loose sleep over fake Buy It Now inquiries. With Wix, you can not.

Wix, if you design your page properly looks better that Dan.
From my experience, Dan only converts fake Buy It Now inquiries that I loose sleep over.

The more control I have over my life, the better I feel.

Spam is what Dan and Afternic threads became on this forum. 500,000 views, no ad expense.
People used to criticize Epik for this, but GoMaddy is ok right?

It looks like GoDaddy read my observation and now started Afternic Official Thread. Another 500 000 views long term at zero advertising expense.

 

[JB Lions]

I’m going to take any spam you do elsewhere and put it back in your own threads. Don’t troll official threads, it’s selfish.

First one

You are out of touch with reality. When the music stops, you will not be able to get a chair.

No, no?

How do you feel about Google's 10M registrations?

 

[JB Lions]

In my opinion, 25% commission will not be ignored by Wall St. This is I think out of the ballpark, and I would be surprised if it gets ignored. There is only so much of dumb money to go around.

JB, you are childish.

JB, you are childish.

I use Afternic. Others use Afternic. You do not. You hop in their official thread trolling and spamming, that’s childish, not professional. This is what I do for a living, so I’m not a fan of the spam that tends to be allowed here, so this is my other option. Flip the spammers spam back on them. Just so you know that when you spam all these other threads you’ve been spamming, it’s just going to show right back up in your threads. Or NP can decide to handle it instead of letting it slide

I can create custom landing pages on GitHub, and use them on all my domains for free.
Why would I pay $9/month to wix?

I would say you do not see forest for the trees.

Can you give more details and some links/examples to your landers? $9 for each domain or a single website for all domains? Do you configure a redirect on your registrar?

You can design one beautiful page and redirect your domains to it.

You can design one beautiful page and redirect your domains to it.

There's nothing special about that. But good to see that you're so enthusiastic about it!

I had my own landers, looked really good also... no sales... Switched to dan.com and I just made sale #3 of the year and its only February... I spoke to one of the buyers after the sale and he said he was watching the domain for years but saw it was finally for sale at a legit company he felt good about doing business with so he finally pulled the trigger. JB said "75%-85% of something is better than 0% of nothing" and I could not agree more! You could always raise your price 15% to compensate for the commission as well... Dan handles the landers, the website scripting, the transfer, the hosting cost, the customer support, and the marketing on multiple platforms. If you don't think that's worth 15%, then have at it with your landers...
