Life is full of ups and downs. The problem with us here is we attach superstitious beliefs to everything in life.

For example, had Kobe Bryant been a Nigerian. Many would say his village people killed him in his prime. The truth is coincidence, highs and lows are all part of life.

Life happens to us all... So be positive and put the your best into your business. Good times will return

He said it's a city + pool domain which is obviously a geo domain.

Isn't it better he sold it for quick flip than wait for the big bucks that may never come?

he is trying to telling you, you can't just appraise a name without knowing the city. There are factors you consider before giving appraisal. That your price may be too high or too low depending on the city, population, end users, competition etc.

Huge domains can afford to overprice to some extent, they have a large portfolio and drop names every year. They are not a standard for a small time domainer.

10% Returns in two months
Some people are truly gullible.

So, if I invest 100K , I have to wait after two months before making 10,000 Naira.
If I use that 100K and be playing 2 odds every weekend, that would be 100 times better sef.

The fact that people are liking this post says it all about Nigerian youth.

You people will be talking of 2 odds like you will fix the match. I started betting with ladbroke and bet360, before Dotun & akin Alabi started working on Nigerians. Thank God for sense.

Only one thing is sure in betting, the owner getting richer from your money. If 2 odds is that easy, you and others are supposed to be very rich by now. Just take a loan or sell your property to raise 100k.

You and the Ponzi scheme investors are in the same category.

Hi

Reading your thread, I almost felt I wrote it except I have never had a waist pain. I read people of the same personality like ours don't get along well (can't even remember where I read that shiii ). Anyway, I will send pm. Hope you reply or be humble to say 'hi' with WhatsApp link in my siggy.

Please the issue of not touching ladies on a first date, I am a gentleman
I respect women a lot and give them time before anything sexual...but on several occasions now
A girl will visit and i won’t touch them only to have same ladies fall cheaply for some of my friends or even workers..
Forgive my blunders and lack of punctuations
Local man is tired..
What do women really want?

even most of them don't know what they want. Their actions, thoughts, talks don't align. You will have problems trying to figure them out. You just be you and do your thing...

Ok after submitting my names about 10 of them to Brandbucket for review. I had to wait for 5weeks 4 days (39 days) to get a response from them and guess what all the names where rejected.
not recounting paying $1/each for the review.
Life of a Domainer.
We move again!!

Meanwhile this Stat below might help someone. It is from a pro Geo domainer.

Peace

I follow this dude np. He seems to killing the geo-game, at least judging his posts.


The first two names i sold in 2016 are still parked at GoDaddy.

With domaining, we just keep learning. The idea is to buy smart and play long term game, while focussing on other hustle.

Guys, please what do you think might be wrong with Squadhelp? This week has been crazy for me on SH. SH had been aggressively and maliciously wicked. I have submitted over 30 unregistered names on SH but, all were rejected.
I am not much of a novice on SH, I have over 40 names, but names I expected approval from SH were rejected.


Is anyone experiencing anything similar?
Could it be that they don't want unregistered names again or I my getting something wrong now than before?
I even planned registering 500 names on SH this year, but now, 100 looks impossible?

Your names are not good enough, learn more

I see anybody claiming like a zombie in movies with no mind of their own.

Nairaland, what a site to ask some questions? You will be more confused. OP, better you use Google and compare different answers. Save yourself of confusion.

He should thank his stars that he's a citizen of US.

If it were to be Nigeria, the DSS would have arrested him, his wife, friends even the journalist that granted the interview....

Obtain a warrant to detain him for 40 days, charge him to court on day 39....
Refuse him bail till Nigerians start protesting for his release...
Malami will now tell us they caught him with AK-47 trying to murder PMB on Facebook hence he can't be released.....

I give up on nairaland people

So we are jokes to this I.diots. someone should them election is still 3 years away. I will soon be free from nightmare called a nation.

I know this is a bit old. If you were my sister, I would have knocked you on the forehead.

You seem cool and a bit intelligent (from your convos) but naive.

It is a good thing the guy only has bad intentions but not calculative or hardcore.

Keep your kind-heartedness by all means, it has its benefits. But always think steps ahead and avoid situations that put you in bad spots.

Have a glorious year.

Imported religious teachings and their confusions. All backed up by the "word". Enjoy your chains.

SH rejected it because they felt it's not catchy enough. I was once like you, but education is progressive. As you continue to try, you will eventually get it right. Don't give up.when I look back at some names SH reject for me, I find it difficult to think I actually submitted them, believe me I was worst than you.
I can only commend you to continue to make progress.

you were worst than me? Lol. Okay master.

What is fitsical? It look meaningless sincerely but,
noble pal looks Ok,
doesn't mean it is not sellable.
It is not just what they want.

first, no name is sellable until they are sold except premium and liquid Domain names. fitsical is a made up word from fitness and physical. Some social media pages & small brands are using that. Can you attach any meaning to "truletic"...but names that got listed and sold has to make sense.

Seriously I need people that understand SH to share their knowledge. Please what is the catch with "trulectic"? Name just got sold. Nothing attached to that name on Google, I can't attach any meaning to it. Yet a name like No/ble/pal & Fit/si/cal in king was rejected.

Modified:
I was a bit tipsy. The name sold was "truletic". But can't still understand why nob/le/pal & Fit/si/cal was rejected.

Geofavor:
Please, For those of you who sell directly to end users without the use of an escrow,

How does the end user send your money to your bank account? Wire transfer?transferwise? etc. Which is the best? And please, what are the steps he takes to send it?

Cc 2sexycom, etc.

TransferWise (hearing some stories about them recently) or Payoneer. Your options are limited as a Nigerian transacting with individuals from other countries. Why an escrow gives you peace of mind regardless of the commission.

You are worry about the wrong stuffs. Little strange you have not had sex, but that is nothing to worry about. You can have sex anytime you want and you will get it right.

The most important thing now is to find a way to make a steady income whether job or a business. And about meeting ladies, there is nothing to it. Just talk to them like you would talk to your friends, be natural n friendly.

Talk to them in church, Mall, on the street etc. Capture their attentions, compliment them and just be cool, look and dress good. But the important thing is to get a steady source of income, it adds to your all round confidence.

ikhalyfah:
@bolded it occurs if maybe u hold that premium domain, not dis kind of geos we deal with.

Yes, the call will eliminate so many doubts and suspense. But most of the times we don't hear good story when an end user ask Nigerians to call them

The bolded is just talking generally to make a point and not about $200 domain outbounding.


I don't even support calling with another country code. No need forcing issues in domaining, most times real buyers don't need so much convincing. Most will be skeptical about a cold email. Let them know from the start you are the owner of the domain name but they are buying from reputable domain companies like Godaddy, Dan etc.

Interested buyer that insisting on call to clear his doubt, is most likely not your buyer. He should carry his doubt and go

ikhalyfah:
Or rather continue through email if she is VERY SERIOUS

it is normal for someone receiving cold email for a domain to be skeptical. Talking to the sender is his way of been sure. Call him, Skype him or focus on another enduser.

I read some US domainers meet up with endusers. Anything to get the sales going.
