the owner of Expireddomains is making shit loads of cash from affiliate earnings.

Also, not only deleted domains. I have a domain on Godaddy auction that I hope to win in next 2 days and if won,it will give me $x, x x x at flippa possibly. I will only reveal it when it sold on flippa.

I notice a lot of folks are very cautious about revealing full domain name. I understand why in this particular case, but generally what is wrong in posting domain names and hope to sell? How does this affect the future buyer? Please explain. I'm new to this. 2 months old to be exact.

domain is quite different from other forms of business in that the opportunity isn't so wide along a vertical. If I reveal the name now and someone goes on to start bidding against me nko and thereby increasing the cost. Sorry, in this game, you don't trust anyone. That's the way we role and you don't take it personal My friend had an $18,000 sale and I asked him what's the domain he sold. He told me he can't reveal it to me. We laughed over it and that's the way we role.

I don't understand the emboldened

Just tell them to type the domain into their address bar. When you forward your domain to Sedo's nameservers, everyone visiting the domain will land on the sales page.

sedo, how do I know when to make a transfer,
how do I transfer my

Sedo will tell you when (and how)
to begin the transfer after they've collected the cash from the buyer.

The ICAAN rule is that 'you can't transfer a newly registered name to another registrar in the first 60 days after registration.' You can transfer the name within the same registrar and a few of us here have sold a name in less than a month after regging it. The solution is to simply ask the buyer to open an account at the registrar where you regged the name.

Thank you.

Wow! Even after he has sold it?! Interesting. Anyway, every field and its peculiarities.

@the emboldened, I meant how does revealing a domain now affect the future buyer?

Well, not all domains are to be revealed as a buyer can google and see it. Sometimes they do so before buying it. It's best you keep things to your chest. The only reason I have put some here is just to serve as a pointer for what to acquire.

I picked up Filming dot i**o yesterday. Why? Lots of Single tech Word has been doing well on flippa and you will need a quite an exposure via the flippa premium upgrade to get a nice slice.

Never Accept The First Offer...when someone puts an offer on the table, there's always a better offer behind it.

when you "reach out" to end-users, you need to give price.

don't play games

either they will accept the amount, make a counter offer or they will walk.

but nothing will happen until you step up

The best way to go about this is to say Thanks for your offer but We are accepting offers in the low four-figure which is btw. (1000 - 4500) ... feel free to shoot me a msg my broda. let me know how it goes

Good Luck!

I contacted the owner of one forex domain and he offered to buy superiorforex.com[registered 3 days ago] for $100 but I feel the offer is too low.

Some times you have to go with your guts. Nothing is guaranteed and never be scared of losing money. I gamble most time. In fact, the first $500 I made back in September 2012 was on the last and only cash I had. N10,000 I split in two. Paid for internet sub and was left with N5,000. Did my research, picked a name and sold it for $500 within 7 days. I would wager that it's more of adrenaline induced and closed to insanity. I hate being broke and hate it with passion. That's my drive.

One good aspect of my life is my thinking ability. I dare not think for too long without a solution popping up. I don't engage in too many talks, I am more of a mental speaker than audible. Research is the key bro. Research till you fall off your PC at 2 am smiley smiley smiley

See, the value of a domain name isn't much when you contact an enduser. Except you are pitching in a niche where the demand is increasing. Seriously, it's all about the demand. He should take the money for real at least where will he invest 500 naira and get 17,000? which business to the best of your knowledge offers that?

Am trying to set up my godaddy auction account but am required to fill some payee informations before I can list domain.
Must I have a domiciliary account before I can list domain or is there a way to bypass this.

Hello guys, 3 days ago I registered a domain using $0.99 promo code successfully. That was the first time I would use a promo code for domain registration, and I don't have to tell you guys how pleased I was to see the debit of just 244.47 naira.

However, since then I have been trying to register a new domain name (that I am genuinely excited about with promo codes) but without success. Why is that? Are promo codes one time offers?

I have been reading and learning from this thread and several other sources for about a week now.By the way, I first heard about doamin name business here on Nairaland and I have made lots of research on tips and tools.
I have a quick question and hope you or anyone can provide answers. I understand it's not advisable to register trademark names due to possibilities of law suits and losing money but just curious about this....some domain name brands already have websites running and yet, these names are currently auctioned on some domain name registrar's websites. There are several of them like that. E.g. www.sony.com is running while sony.com domain name is available on auction.
Can anyone explain this? Thanks!

Can you provide a link to where you saw this happening? It's likely a scam. Do you know what it means to auction a business that has been on for decades, one that has nurtured top music brands and icons such as Michael Jackson et al?
