Listed some domains on Afternic a few weeks back and I discovered they've been on pending review since.

Customer care doesn't seem to be responding. Who's experienced this and how can it be resolved?

1Dray:


Access bank N366 per $

Thanks for the heads-up.

These Zenith folks are just exploitative. Access Bank also offered (or offers) a better rate when withdrawing USD via their ATMs.

That's one of the problems I have with Afternic. In fact, after finally listing names, they sometimes switch them back to 'not listed' status and you will not know until when next you . I have repeatedly asked why this happens, but they always ignored that question.

How I wish there's a better alternative.

Access Bank is N336. I use them always. They charge you N366 when you are paying and N336 when you are receiving

Oga mi. How u dey. I wan ask question oo. What if person buy an expired domains that has high "bl" and has been running for sometime, then check "achieve" and see what it's all about, then build website using elementor (WP) around it , and then flip it. Since it's already has high "BL" and other good metrics, can't it attracts high selling interest? I am just thinking it loud.. website flipping using expired domains with high BL . Thanks

Flippa is the best place to sell this type of name with website

Greetings to the bosses in the house..
I actually bought my 1st domain @SuitesUsa.com today on Namesilo. And it's been parked..
Pls what should I do to enable me get a quick buyer so as to get my first sale. And also how much do u suggest I put as the buying price

House please I need suggestions

House please I need suggestions

To make your first sales, you need to do two things:

1. Stop buying domains;

2. Start reading. You can start from this thread. At least the first 100 pages.

For the one you've got, you should take it for a learning experience.

Here's what you're going to do:

Get an on Afternic, if you haven't done so. List it there.

List on Dan/Epik and change the name server accordingly.

Forget you ever bought that domain and move on.

And NEVER buy that kind of domain name.

Reasons:

It looks like you're targeting the Real Estate niche, and it's easier to pull a fang from the mouth of a baby mosquito than to get those guys to part with money. They are all bloody, HARDENED deal BREAKERS in that niche. It's what they do.

And the 'USA' suffix attached to the domain name makes it a very broad, and potentially USELESS domain name. It is too generic for a Geo domain. Next time, stick to CITIES.

And it's always a good idea for your geo-location to come before the product or service attached to it.

Wish you more luck than I've had.

I understand jare. That can tire dey tire person sef... you will just sleep like a beaten wood lol and it is the fastest kinda sleep. I currently have Traineen listed for 1k above CannaVue.

There was one like that...

HomesPrint.com... it met all my parameters and was on pending delete but I was worried about the dollar exchange rate that time because dollar was almost 500 naira per dollar and if it goes to $300 or 400 during bidding and still not sell at the end of the day, I would have my money hung in there.

So all my mind was that there will be fierce bidding... na so i remove my mind. That domain sold for 4k+ about 2 months later and when i checked the auction ending price, it was less than $90... if only i had monitored it. the buyer at 4k dropped it and it is now in possession of someone else.

Wow, "Traineen" sounds like Trainee with an "n" which makes it a nice brandable term (Which can be used by a Training Agency, Talent scout network, A training tool app or even a Job recruitment program.). It also sounds like the real word "Training" which can be used for a lot of this as a brandable term too. (Goodluck on that one boss)

About "Homesprint" it happens all the time, you got to move on going forward and hopefully to stumble on a better name sef as there are alot of untapped opportunities in this industry.

Peace

you can't even get your hand on such domain bro. Backlink domains don't even make it to closeout and they are bought at 4 figures regularly at Godaddy.

But if you can get it, you have a winner. But make sure its not a domain with negative record on Google.

Website Flipping is profitable if you do it well.

Do you use elemento? It's a great plugin but I am planning to use Divi for my next venture, towards the end of this or mid year.

Do we have expert SEO content writer here?

its actually a Dutch word for Trainee. I will renew it for next 5 years until it sells

Happens a lot, if it does, just remove the name and relist it. If it persist, you can then send a mail to their (they will fix it without giving you any notification)

First time using my Naira Debit MasterCard for an international transaction and I was charged N373+ per USD. Does anyone here know of a bank offering a better rate currently?

Hey! He asked how much they charge when purchasing a domain, which I replied N366

And Access bank actually pays N340 when you're receiving. I was paid at the rate of N340 just last week via Payoneer platform.

No, i actually got to know about this domain stuff late last year. And I started like few days ago

richkal:

I'm not sure but when I was paid, I calculated the money I was paid in naira against how much I had in dollar and it resulted to N340 per dollar.

Good morning negotiators in the house,

So I got my first offer after going back and forth with the reply not more than $75. My initial offer was for $250.

Here's the thing though. The interested has the same domain but in singular.
He asked why he should buy mine when he already has it in singular. I told him it would be wise to acquire it than his competitors doing so.

What do you guys think I should counter offer him with?

Thank you as you make your contributions.

Sorry, did you arrive at that rate after adding the $3.15 ATM withdrawal fee or it's exclusive of it?

Sorry if I got you wrong. But when did Access Bank start paying at N340. I received at N336 throughout last year. Same few days ago. (Bank Transfer)

He is a good potential buyer. Am sure he is interested in the name but trying to play smart. He will come back and purchase it after some time.
Don't accept the $75 except you need money urgently

Baddest. Make i go place offer of $80,000.

He may or may not increase his offer for the name. Compare what you bought the name for and how much you may loose if he doesn't respond to you again.

From there, you should be able to know exactly what to do! It's far better to be safe than to be sorry.

It's all up to you finally.

Nice one.

How do you see these domains:

WisconsinAutoSales .com
&
FloridaUsedAutos. Com

Most times not about the beauty of the name or how sweet it looks or sound because you're not the one who would use it.

Have you gotten reasonable number of leads to sell to?
That's the koko IMO.

All the best.

Counter with $150

I picked these three on Sunday from ED

NewYork/medical/supplies
NewYork/Landscapers
Oklahoma/Nursing/homes (.Net is already a developed site)

All in .com

Hope am not wasting my money? Because my portfolio is now 23 and still not a single sale though am less than 5 months in the game.

I had 4 domains in the cart, insufficient fund made me drop one. Someone here bought and sold it within 5 hours

Good morning people,

Biko, what is the best payment option to use with Dan? I know they charge 9% commission.

What about bank transfer charges?

I know right? He is the only one who has replied after sending outbound mails. The previous owner of the domain just reads the mail and never replies.

I'm thinking $100, fair enough?
