Limit should be 2.

15 available to/for me.
My Approval rate is 6.1 compared to Site Average of 10...

Seeking ideas.
How do you prove ownership of a domain name when an end user demands for it?


"Can you verify that you actually own and can sell this site."

Ask the end-user to contact the marketplace?
Take a snapshot of the domain name in your account dashboard?
Write some texts on the landing page to prove ownership?

Ideas are welcomed pls.

yemight2776:
Any expert here pls.

Seems there's a difference between Oklahoma (state) and Oklahoma (city)


Oklahoma//hair//salon//king is available.
How to include 'city' in the name is the issue sha.

ElonMosque:
Ok what's the longest number of characters you've sold?

Just sixteen (16) letters.

ElonMosque:
Bro, do you actually reg 3 word geo domains? I see them as too long o.. or it doesn't matter?? I mean they can be more than 18 characters

Yes.

It does sell...

Crazeworld:
it's an inbound

You sure can still attach a message to the counter offer. One that suits the particular situation...

yemight2776:
Any expert here pls.

Seems too generic...
What kind of stylist?
Hair stylist?
Wardrobe stylist?
FashionStylist?


Oklahoma/HAIR/stylist
Oklahoma/FASHION/stylist

Hope you understand?

Crazeworld:
Good evening. When countering an offer on Dan, is there need to include a message in the chat box?

Depends on the initial offer and what you're countering.

I recall sending a message like the below along with the counter offer.

"Hi username, this offer (counter offer) is valid for only 24hrs. I already contacted a lot of end-users and they will be coming for the domain name..."

The message was meant to create urgency...

The deal was successful.

Broaden your horizons.

I just used the knowledge from beckplanet's tutorial on brandable and my squadhelp experience after participating in 300+ contests till date (also a product of the tutorial) to deliver a job requiring business name+slogan+domain name+trademark research.
'Simple' task like abc+keyword, abcd+keyword, and corresponding domain name.

Took about 4 non consecutive hours. Infact I was engaged in other activities while researching name.

Entered everything in a word document and sent to client. Job accepted and my $$ is clearing.

Key things to note: There is gold here. Only those with sharp eyes and minds will spot it.
This happened on fiverr
(#part time freelancer).

Crazeworld:
How did you arrive at that? Any reference to back it up?

Don't know of 2019. But as at 2018, Nigeria overtook India!

edition.cnn.com/2018/06/26/africa/nigeria-overtakes-india-extreme-poverty-intl/index.html

Original statement:

For a typical Nigerian making less than $200 per month where an internet connection might cost $50 per month, it is a way to bootstrap while adding value by connecting supply and demand

True or false

Paraphrased:
For a Nigerian guy or babe who is earning/collecting 75k per month as salary (which is true a true reflection of the poor salary many get; minimum wage in Nigeria was just recently reviewed to 30k Naira)... domain flipping is a good way to keep body and soul together...

True or false

tysonnn:
Well, I didn't read his post again before replying. I prolly mixed it up a bit.
But if you check my initial post, you will see that I said "the typical" Nigerian. It pretty much means the same as the average Nigerian. I will school you in the English language, bro.

Let's leave it at that...

Reality11:
Am surprised that you guys are even responding to him. Just look at the reasons he gave

Less than 6 years back a politician promised to pay youths $15 every month, more than 60% of the country await for it like their life depends on it hence this shows what $15 is to some Nigeria population. In fact they see it an an entitlement not because of the promise but because they need it.

Just some days back minimum wage was $50 (18k). $200 is four times the country's minimum wage. There is no country in this world where 4x its minimum wage would be small amount of money within it's territory.

And some one would open mouth and say $200 is not a big money in Nigeria?

therealMcCain:
LUCK has nothing to with the technological advancement of the advanced world. Taiwan/China that was a laughing stock years back, are now forces to reckon with.

They had a plan & put in the work, they are reaping the fruits.

Your prophecy about Nigeria becoming a Hub can only come to pass when there is a plan & a follow through. For now there is no light at the end of the tunnel.

As for Team Nigerians were insulted & $200 (N70,000) does not reflect the realities of the typical Nigeiran.

Most folks samasult when $100 (36,000) sale is reported here not to talk about $1000(360,000) sale. The naira is messed up, be it $50,100 or $1000 makes a difference to the typical Nigerian.

if you say otherwise, why is the bulk of the domainers here pricing their Geo for $300 below? why are they going for quick flip?

How many have been able to buy a name from resale market for $200 & above?

Aptly put. Endorsed.

emmydsife:
Please can someone give me the numbers to the pages where beckplanet shared his 2019 testimony in the domain market. I think I need that to boost my life line in this domain biz...

Not a single sale since last year... I am hopeful... I need to just feast on that testimony again... Thanks

That had nothing to do with what Philip said. He didn't say anything about us being scammers. He didn't even mention Nigeria. But rob as usual came and started giving nonsensical stats that "the typical Nigerian" doesn't make more than $200 a month.

$200 na big money for the average Nigerian...

richkal:
Though it unpopular opinion, but its full of common sense bro. This same tactic I employed to unearth over 250 Decent Geo Domain Names.

Na so. Lots of gems out there.

Christty:
Please, guru in the house, I need your help. I have been trying to search for expired domain names to register but I didn't get good ones and the more I search the more I get confuse. I have searched and sign up with expired domain, namesilo and namecheap. I was given a promo code by namecheap for signing up for the first time. Pls, I couldn't get any cheap and good CPC, PA and DA and traffic. What should I do please or where should I start from? Secondly, why can't you separate the topic or compile it into category for easy navigation for new readers just an advice. Please, will be waiting eagerly for your reply thanks.

This ExpiredDomains sef... Take this advice with a pinch of salt sha


The first two domains I sold, I didn't have to check expireddomains site.

I just saw what was reported here and looked for something similar. Irrespective of traffic stats.

In this case, you are not pitching the domain name based on traffic stats but it's aesthetic appeal.

Just check popular services such as hair stylist, caterer/catering, handyman, podiatrist, roofing/roofers, etc against big cities 100000+ population.

If someone reports the sale of miami//roofing//contractors//com, that can be a good start in your research.

Look for other USA cities you can combine with the keyword roofing//contractors.

cutegentility:

Impossible. It can be available.

Useful Google Search 'tools' for outbound

How much does it cost to host a website per year?

ElonMosque:
Err,.what of the .co.uk version?

It's is registered. Barnsley Locksmith(s)//king is also registered. All by different end users.

I'm just surprised it was still available when I searched.

Ok

prettyboi1:
Nigerians & the worship of school degrees. SMH. How much has our worship of degrees done for our country? NOTHING...NOTHING TO SHOW.

Nobody cares about your worship of degrees if the knowledge does not translate to bettering real life situations on ground.

Working towards getting a first class doesn't mean you are 'worshipping' school degrees.

chaiks:
its true graduating with a poor grade I'll somehow affect you.but in present day Nigeria and d world,it shouldn't stop one from achieving his goals.we are in a world of globalization.so many skills and business opportunities and routes to live good life.its just that the Nigerian society makes it look as if people who graduated with good grades but have no connection committed a crime.I am victim of that.I came out d best graduating student in my dept (not first class though)but uptill now no show for job.I am presently trying to acquire ICT skills to complement my profile.in Nigeria ,once you graduate with a good or bad grade,you can be successful if you have connection,acquire proper ICT skill,master d environment you live to know the kind of business that I'll thrive there,and above all pray constantly for gods grace.for those that have good grades,I have come to think that looking up for scholarships abroad for further studies I'll be ideal,at least in low profile universities in some countries.this might pave a way.language skill is another good buck.expand your contact,get in touch with your classmates who didn't grad with a good grade .they might be connected more than you.above all ,continue to meet people and pray always.

Great advice

Ramon92:
create a GSuite account, choose your plan and you'll be asked to verify your domain (you'll be given a code)

Head to your domain control panel, create a new MX record and paste the code, then save.

Head back to GSuite and click on verify Domain. After that, you can create your new custom mail.

Gmail will give you a 14 days trial and after that you get billed for each new account you create..

Thanks bro.

signalsmedia:
thanks
am also thinking of listing it afternic.

but whats d worth of the domain pls

The domain is worth reg fee! The amount you paid to register it.

Like they say, Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder...

Take a look at how much the T.... homemover(s).com is listed for and decide for yourself what you think is best.

signalsmedia:
OK. can I send the emails using my gmail?

also kindly drop outbounding email templates to use.

Yes you can.

Check previous pages of this thread, you will see outbound templates.
Or check the post history of the creator of this thread.

signalsmedia:
Am new here.

pls someone help me appraise this domain

texashomemover . com

thanks

It's more of Mover(s) than mover
T----homemover(s).com is currently undeveloped and listed for sale.

Nevertheless, do outbounds. You never can tell...

So I just stumbled on the article (link) below while trying to read up on email forwarding.
It talks about linking your gmail with your custom email address and being able to send and receive emails with the custom email address displayed.

Since Epik(registrar) Has free email forwarding, I decided to try it out.

I was able to forward (receive) emails to my customer email address example@mydomain.com, and it landed in my gmail box.

I also sent an email from my gmail which has been linked to my custom email address and my custom email address was what was displayed.

The article explains things better. More so, it's free.
