Oshiofe:
ok, maybe. Because I check DNS history of some of your sold names.

Yeah tested their standard lander for like a week in Jan cause of 7.5% commission but didn't like it so went back to afternic

Congrats

vision202020:
Thanks so much for the reply.
I can see that you don't use brandable marketplaces like Brandbucket and Atom (Squadhelp).
Is there any reason for that?

Not for me.. commission too high..

Oshiofe:
bro, the guy dey use atom.

No... Highest na old standard listings wey dey there I never get time to delete....

vision202020:
Sales lander do you use?

BIN + LTO + MO

Brandconsultany:
There are questions I'll love to ask:
1. What prompted you pick up Phil and what drove you to put it up at $50k?
2. What do you normally check out for when registering or picking up a name vie Hrg or auctions?
3. Are your sales purely inbound sales or...?

1. guys on Phil,us called them self that.. checked their history and LinkedIn and they looked serious enough.Price was random ...

2. if better end user dey or if no end user past sales idk... Check previous posts I explained this

3. Always inbound I never ever do outbound.

sammyrollo:
Huge Congratulations, how were you able to get Haidro on $5 closeout? that domain is taking in 10 ext. very lucky to have that.

Na was like 4 or 5 ext na this buyer just reg the extras...Now 22 ext....

Learner47:
Do all your domains use BIN+LTO+MO including the ones in $19xx, $28xx, $38xx abi na different settings.

I no get price below 3500 I too lazy to be pricing different... All my domains use bin+LTO+mo .. ....

Bamshads:
are; Is this an inbound sale and is your Afternic account on Boost?

Inbound and no boost..

Learner47:
Abeg how u take dey reg name for Z/com cause I dey see Japan, Singapore..clicking any redirects back to the same page.

Should be phillipines but visit this..
my,web,z,com/order..... change all commas to dot ... tho u gats reg a name to create an account.... And they aren't 5$ anymore it's now 6.4$ ... Dynadot is 6.99 too now so no diff...


.

SEYIKP:
I watchlist the producer/flow and I wanted to register it because the .io was registered, but because the .io wasn't developed I just ignored it, wow.

Thank u for your service and donation to my cause..

Second and Third Sales Report.. Pretty funny considering how awful November.. December and Jan was... Month never even start.. wahala

Might as well squeeze in one last report... This one happened on Wednesday

Hai/dro

Sp: 4888$
Ht: 8 months
Cost: 5$ closeout..plus renewal total is 16.17$

Picked it simply cause it sounds exactly like hydro... Which is water by the way....tho hidro woulda been cooler but that's obviously not a cheap name.....ever ...all other better versions were not for sale either.. like Aidro or hidro...


And this one Today tho went on hold yesterday

Producer/Flow

Sp: 4888
Ht: 3 months
Cost: 5$ Ed drop at z,com

Can't remember but maybe I regged for the guys on useproducer/flow I don forget..




Little extras again

And if you were poor like I was .. use your money chop ... But if u must pick make sure the name rare something wey no dey normally drop.... Over manage that fund.. I fit theif for domains...

I don't like huge portfolios either... Can't sell and be like chai I need 10 sales to renew my domains eweee...one sale suppose renew all

And I have said it before but I will say it again your end users can afford your domains easily they just being stingy bitc,,h es ... Thats Why I don't gaf about my pricing cause during my survey times both students or end users will pay people up to 2000$ just to say yes or no to if their product is good.and explain why .... Even broke geo businesses did it too . Plumbers asking wat should we do to change our business....

February was always empty for me with no sales each year until this year ..
I have no 4 letter domains either...

Peace out ....

NL s/p/am b/o/t sha .. Don't say Agen//tic or Qwen//chat NL will ban your account.
I guess those guys selling 30k domains with 2 month reg time are not scam after all...

Lmao..the picture no clear.

Oshiofe:
baba o e be like say you won drop another bomb. Congrats in advance

James39:
E be like say something don land.

bea1234567:
Sir how you take dey do this thing sef?

Share some real snippets for us. We know that you get the names on ED.

But there's info inside info. Help your boys sir. 🙏🙏

No inside things oh I don share for my previous posts na... Why I pick names.. filters I use...how to see previous GoDaddy sales... Rest na ur eye go do the work...

SEYIKP:
being woke, is getting outdated, even in western world where this nonsense came from,people are coming into the reality of a supreme being that rules in the affairs of mankind. You can belief what you choose to belief in, it is your choice. I can't imagine why an African will decide not to acknowledge supernatural. It is alien to our culture.

Lmao outdated... U no go leave this word for the Americans them no send or like us oh..... And he is right no grace involved just years of testing...... No dey throway my hard work inside grace.... It is alien in your culture Kwa ... English wey u dey speak come native...

SEYIKP:
what you don't believe in you won't experience. That's all. You won't experience grace in your life. Say amen.

I no believe oya ..amen....rip to my future sales I guess...

And @seyikp .... Viktor88 was agreeing with you.... He said nothing pass grace.... u no see him previous post asking for grace.... Be calming down ..

U people should be calming down....it's domain thread ehn ...just enjoy sales leave religious topic for the religion thread .....

This grace versus not grace has-been argued many times here and it's always fruitless waste of time for everyone involved.. so y'all should leave it oh

Omo never had 3 sales in a month before(edited: nevermind turns out I did last year august)

Maze/Hq

Sp:4888. ...(sold twice explanation below)..
Ht:: be like na 2 years and 3 months but I no pay renewal oh... I go explain
Cost.. 8.88$ at sav then

Expilanuation..

I reg am in 2022 which was my first year with the nothing I know.... 11 months later it sold as 24 month LTO 3500$.on dan......... ... But buyer canceled after first payment... I broke then so I wan faint..... ..I didn't even plan on renewing the name then I no get 7$ for any renewal.... and Dan gimme auth code and told me to collect the name back I ignored them cause were I wan find 7$ ..... ...

I just see sold email now I confuse say ah am not the owner .. I checked whois see say Dan is still holding and renewing it lmao.... Omo I asked Dan .. the same auth code of 2023 they gimme again it still works .. I thought auth code no dey last pass 7 days... And they approved the transfer ohhh . Omo ......

Dropped other word plus HQ I had in 2023 cause money no dey oh ..... .... I feel like I regged this then cause I was hoping the guys on maze,co will get sense and by my own.. lol newbie nonsense...

Afternic charged 25% cause Dan go and change nameserver then chai.....

I do wonder if na same buyer of 2023 come back or if na new person....

End of my long story oh.....

sammyrollo:
Congratulations, what nameserver are you using generally, Bin+make offer or jus BIN?

Ns1,2 afternic . Bin+LTO+makeoffer

Ladokun12:
Hold time :4 Months
Picked on Ed
More sales

Congrats

Learner47:
Congratulations GP. That 'Make Offer' move was legendary. Read something like that from Attorney Beryl.

On the huge domain, how were you able to know it sold via their service and price. Do you have special tools.

Lastly that 390 auction is about 600K+ what was the huge conviction & deciding factor to binge on & press on with the auctions in the face of those White Capitalist.

It showed up in the auction page as a previous sale all I did was check the nameserver to confirm wen ......


Check google for the company on accelevation...LLC . .. that's all I needed to know they seemed very serious.. and were building something....

KemoSabe:
It's Sayonara ... Congrats Bro

Lol na true sha ..

What's up y'all... Been a while...Jan was very dry.. I come dey wonder if domaining wasn't a scam lol omo..

Sales Report

Accele//vation
Sp:10,000$
Ht:8 months
Cost:390$ Gd auction (and no I don't really do high auctions that much na 1$ I like to only join I still broke make I no over step boundary)

Reason: Obviously sounds like acceleration and elevation mixed together... plus a growing company was using the term..and others... Tho they have a trademark but no be why I pick am na so not my biz...

The buyer has been active since 2015 ... And hugedomain sold this same domain in 2021 for 2000$ to another startup wey no even use am.....so I thought that means this buyer no serious.. guess they never grow by then ....

Twas the only domain in my portfolio I set as make offer and didn't put bin cause I didn't want any nonsense udrp even tho I picked it for another reason.... I also didn't set my lander to any marketplace since July oh .. until last week I mistakenly set it to afternic while bulk updating others.. few days later they came with offer ...that was on Friday and in less than 1 hr they already increase their offer and paid .. Then broker carry am from there... Didn't want to keep pushing the negotiation make Dem no go udrp me hahaha.....



Rocket/Skip

Sp:4888
Ht:11 months
Cost:5$ at z,com


Reason: No clue.. don't know why rocket is skipping or why at that price either..... This is part of the those list I said I was experimenting with that aren't part of my portfolio... So abeg me sef confuse...

Portfolio now 1600.. (remember about 800 are experiment with names I wouldn't normally touch and will drop this year like Rocket ...Skip .. sure I could reduce their price but that's not the point I want to check.... I want to see which ones go for proper prices.. . So atleast rocket wey sell don cover all of their cost ....now the rest we will see...but considering it's weak ass performance I no dey touch again I'll go back to wat I adviced before to only get names that make u wet)... It helped with jan-march renewals so not that bad

Afternic Boost was off for both

Congrats to all the recent sellers.
Siyonara and I hope everyone gets a good 2025 ..

Sales Report

Blip/Delivery
Ht: 1 month +
Cost : Ed Drop reg Spaceship
Sp: 10,000$ (12 installment but first 5 fig sale so that's nice )

Background
Wen I saw it all I remember was everyone on NL always saying Blip abi na bleep everything they don't want to say an insult.... So thought it was funny before I saw the business active. On the hyphen...
Obviously got it for those guys on the hyphen for their drone delivery thing they planning seems interesting.
I actually didn't even reg it the day it dropped.. na day after so coulda lost it sef .... Bought it oct 10 at 7am and it sold Dec 1 at 7am too lmao... Funny coincidence ... .. My LTO was set to 60 months tho. I set 24 months normally not sure wat happened .. but they still reduced to 12 months so that's nice..... even had make offer sef they still no touch...

Second sale

Abu/fed
Ht 9 months
Drop reg
Sp..400$.

Background.
Don't know what the f*** this even means .. guess I reg for the extension taken then which is a stupid reason to reg a name by the way .... Bin was 3500 lol lead came in last week and after a week moved form 250$ to 400$.. the broker didn't tell me anything by the way he just cancel the lead say buyer say too expensive... Na so I see stalled.. say no oh for ugly name like this ... I type message say collect tthat money asap ... Then the broker reactivated the lead and collect the 400$ lol na so person for miss this... Haven't had a 3 fig sale in 2 years so this is nice fr .... happened yesterday.....



Congrats to all the recent sellers and wishing us all more sales before year end...

Despite how much auction and closeout I been adding... Drop regs are still the only ones over performing ohhh.. wahala . ... So see its better to invest were your money reach no go overdo..

And Remember one thing the end users are more excited than you are wen they get their domain.. ignore all the bad things u see online a huge portion of them are glad we let them have it...

Nov was dry just dum offers that go nowhere

Portfolio now 1300++

Boost was on for both sale lmao.. na mistake oh I like to turn it on once every 3 weeks and off it 2 days after immediately... but sale go happen during one of my oning oh lmafao... Issoright sha

Drhay:
I have tried to put it up on atom, currently in review on Afternic.

Please i need assistance on
1. how to get more lead for enduser faster aside bing
3. Please help me on email content and do i need to create a new email

This is outbound related questions I can't really help with that since I don't rmemeber much either sorry .... And borrowing to domain is a bad idea oh since it either takes a long time to sell or not sell at all... if u want to domain u need to have cash you don't need ..

WorkTheTalk:
can I see a screenshot of one of your Afternic domain landers? I mean do you set BIN, MO and LTO all appearing on your sales page?

Picture below

Gpexchange:
Mhmm.....Sales Report Again...

Get/ Calico
Ht: 1 month plus

I think I just remembered I saw companies using the name...like calico labs, Go calico ,calico agency . Calico ai . And whatnots so yeah..


No be juju...no be grace am not with any religion...... not luck either I just check every day without failing u get to see what's going on when you do...u reduce probability when u do

Even I am as suprised as u all are cause no be recently I start domaining....

but I guess.... This is what happens when you learn to use Ed well and visit every single day(30 mins to 1 hr daily) .......... Plus I have been doing things online for long so how domain works wasn't that hard to figure out.....
My first and second year ..... Was hard..cause I didn't know wat I was regging..plus no money.... I only sold 3 names that was worth it and that was it ... Brokeness wan finish me... I even had to lend money ....

The one thing that helped the most is that I priced high... Tho I was scared it would fail since everyone is always saying to reduce price to let sale come.... Even in my 7 months draught I no do it was hard cause I was broke too so patience isn't what we need then but I tried.... and this is the only year it finally worked... And the whole looking at money in naira instead of in usd sure it's large in naira but don't be scared to price it how their money works isn't how ours work.

Even am suprised cause the names similar sales no dey pass 1k sale price .or gd appraisal of 100$..see their head..I just didn't want jare..... Rather than sell 50 names at 1k.. I'd rather do 10 names at 5k.. tho am sure am missing sales but no choice... And manage money .... I could only afford drops . So I stayed there no go do wetin pass u.....

The names are rarely quality but once u had strong reason why u reg each it will work out ...


And reduce ur stress changing name servers and price every week might work for someone but might not u.. u just dey give urself work.....but u can keep testing tho ... No one can tell you what to do na your name... but if it works for u..that's nice...

Portfolio is currently 1100.. haven't bought anything
much for a while cause of the sales draught of last 2 months
