The time/period between registration and sale. Or simply put, the number of days it took him to sell the domain from the day he registered it.

Welcome on board

U1:
Congrats. More sales, bro.

I think it took me about that same time, or longer, to get my first sale. That time included taking a break from domaining from up to like a year, though.

I love your doggedness of still continuing to register new names despite lack of sales. That's what I do since I don't think the names I have registered all these years have brought me a loss overall. It's just the time I devote to outbounding that are yet to be well accounted for.

We move!

Woooow u guys motivate me... I made my first sale after 4 months into domaining, i was dumpfounded not to now talk abt u guys that waited for a year plus...

Hmmmn thank u guys

Morning guys. How do I respond to a client asking for the monthly unique number of visits of my domain? Or what do I respond with? Please help brother.

Did u tell him in your domain salesletter that it has a high number of visits per month
.. If that is the case,u shudnt have said that

Anyway i tink there is a tool u can use for that, ask around...

The Duck has been Broken.

Finally! I can smile.

After two years of domaining. I have finally been able to hit my first sale. My story would interest you please read on.

I started in 2018, bought two names (kansasroofingcontractors) and (New Orleanstrucking) and started doing outbounds. I felt that they were good names so would sell on time. Alas, nothing of that sort was to happen.

Money has been the main issue for me I couldn't even participate that much in buying .coms during the netsol $1 promo. I bought a few names though but they all expired on me.

2019 saw me venture a bit into the brandable space of domaining. I had about three premiums on SH but they too like other of my names expired without an offer talk less of a sale.

You can now imagine how frustrated and disappointed I was at myself for not being able to get it right. Seeing people come to report sales after being just 1 month into the game was motivating and at the same time saddening to me.

But I thank God.

2020.

Well, frustration continued... I needed money, I needed money, I needed money. "Wetin man go do nau"? I thought. I then said to myself if I can't sell my own names, let me do outbound for others and see if I can get it right. And that's how I started doing percentage jobs. The sales I made from them weren't mine so I still didn't feel excited about them. I needed my own sales, so I started investing.

Little by little. Continued my outbound, no replies, went back to my drawing board, created new emails changed my sales letter, experimenting... then i saw improvements in responses, mind you I wasn't getting "yes" but at least I was getting responses albeit negative ones. In domaining that counts for something.


So brethren, I kept on praying and working. Just working because I knew that if I gave up my 2 years of trying would have been a waste.


On Fri 28th Aug, I did a fresh outbound for this particular name that sold. Did extensive search and got new end users I had somehow left out before. He replied with his offer and told me that we would have a deal if I accept it. It wasn't a bad offer so I did accept.

This deal took almost one week to finalize and at some point I felt I had lost it even as I had involved Rob of Epik (that man na yeye person btw).

Fri 3rd Sept. buyer paid and he received his domain, Hallelujah!


Domain Name: Mesa///Landscapers///com
SV: Epik
SP: $300 Negotiated from $499 (there was a time I listed it $150 but them nor buy, lol)
Hold Time: 2-3months
ED picked.


Special thanks to Iykepromotions for the thread, he continues to bless lots of lives daily. That in itself is greatness.

My warm appreciation to Promxy94 !! I love you man no doubt... this guy nearly closed a deal for me in 2018 when I just started but somehow it didn't work out. This guy motivate me nor be small

Warm appreciations to Channel5 this guy motivated me steadily,his kind words saw me through the ordeal.

thanks to Mazizitonene, ikhalyfah, AAA593.

Note To Newbies and Old Guys (O.G) alike

1. Always endeavor to be kind and encourage those who haven't made a breakthrough.
2. Don't ever give up!
3. In outbounding keep your mails as short as possible, the moment your mails are perceived as sale letters and are lengthy they get tossed in the trash.
4.Have Faith.

I'm only just getting started y'all!

Thanks for reading this boring piece and God bless you! More Sales!!!

Bro congrats, i quess the reason y u did not make sales earlier was that maybe u put high price, that turns buyers down

U1:
Has anyone here had to deal with end-users who take a domain name to be a website?

Explain to him that it is not and if he keeps on arguing, just avoid him and move on

Dreydoe:
Please has anybody use GTb atmcard to buy domains of late?

Tried using it on GoDaddy one time and it didn't go through

I don't think u can use gtb atm on godaddy but u can use it on other auction sites...

The reason is that godaddy are very strict

Flodel:
Thanks I've lost virtuoso all the kits and two female rabbits, its saddening

Same thing happened to the man i bought my rabbit from...what could be happening

.

Flodel:
Pls help my rabbits and kits are dying, I just notice that they become sluggish and don't feed well, their neck become stiff and tilted to one side then they die. I've lost 17 rabbits now, the rest are not eating well.
I called a vet, he gave them gent injection, said its Newcastle's disease, also gave them a power for their water, this was when I've lost about 10, but now its 17. Pls hep me

haaaa 17, i will advise you create your own thread and call lala to help u to push to front page

Truthlord12:
Good evening people please I need your advice regards to this, I got separated from my ex girlfriend last year because she told me her travel plans abroad I was a bit sceptic About the nature of job she’ll do there, she’s the type that’s ready and willing to do anything to help her family.

After everything I told her not to embark on the journey that she should be patient with me, once my business picked up I’ll care for her and her family, she refused and traveled last year, few months before she left she gave me some money to add to my business I wouldn’t want to state the actual amount but a bit huge. Of recent her family really suffering because my ex had issue with the person that took her abroad so she’s passing through difficult time though she’s hiding some info from me since she’s not able to make money, she called me of recent that I should please do anything to help her family.

Now I’ve got a new girlfriend I told my new girlfriend about the issue but she said I shouldn’t give my ex family any money, because we ain’t together anymore that if I do she’ll leave me

Please people help me what should I do? My mind is really disturbing me and I still love my ex I wish I’ve a way to bring her back to Nigeria so we can start a family I don’t care the type of job she went there to do and I don’t mind what she has been through. She did so much for me, she made sacrifice that this my new girl won’t do, I don’t even know if my new girlfriend loves me or because of my money.

Though I love my new girlfriend but part of me is with my ex I don’t know if she’ll will be willing to return though I’ve not discussed it with her. And now my new girlfriend threatening to leave me if I assist or give back the money my ex gave me as support for my business before she travelled to her family I’ve been down for days thinking so much.

Guy you need to break up with that your current girlfriend...she is a bad vibe... She is only dating u cus of your moni... If u marry that girl, u will regret it...

Concerning your ex, i will advice u just be her friends from now...i mean close friend then as times go on, you will know if u can ask her out again or not

Femcesc07:
Bro, please I wasn't supporting anybody but I think the WhatsApp group been created might not work for everyone or it might not benefit everybody, We all know that NL is a go to for mostly all domainer's in naija and staying on here as been helping alot us people with the vast of info been dropped here everyday.
I think by creating WhatsApp group, we're dividing the info been share here and also the unity, strength, courage and love that we share as a brother. I believe those are the things that are keeping us going on this thread.
Please let's stick to this thread and keep it as one place that everyone could run to for first hand information and for the sake of those that will be joining domain community.

I agree wit u bro

GideonOludayomi:
Sorry for responding late.

That is malocclusion. Get plier or preferably cutter and carefully trim that teeth.


...
Sorry oooo
I just went through the thread and discovered you already lost the rabbit...biko.

When it comes to rabbit, please never rely on a vet doctor(at least 95% of them) Rabbit is one of the 'insignificant' animals they didnt pay attention to during training...

As per bloat, pls stop adding maize to your feed. Again don't feed freshly cut hays immediately. Now in case you use ready made rabbit feeds,be very mindful of the treats you give to them(I advise none at all except hay). To the glory of God, bloating is very rare on my farm.

all what you said is 100 percent true, i tink itz bcus of d maize i gave my rabbit and because i do give them freshly cut hays... i also overfeed it...i tink datz d reason y it died...

seunH:
That is rubbish, my brother let me tell you the truth as a veterinarian, most Nigerians don't know their rights and that is why quackery is so prevalent. Sir, it is the duty of the Vet to tell you what exactly he/she thinks is wrong with your pet, tell you the prognosis (chances of survival) and what your options are (does it make sense to treat or just euthanize your pet depending on the value of the pet, cost of treatment and chances of survival?). All these are your rights as a Nigerian when you visit a Vet. But in your case he/she didn't even tell you what was wrong, just asked some few questions, collected 1,500 from you and gave you an unnamed injection/powder and asked you to go. Sincerely that was very unprofessional, that is even if he/she is a Vet. It is such people that are spoiling our profession. I really wish I can return your 1,500 to you and most importantly keep your rabbit alive as much as possible. I'm sorry once more.

Wooow thank u

Akinola100 watz d update concerning your rabbit and what do you feed it

seunH:
I'm so sorry sir, this post just spoilt my mood. By the way, what did the vet tell you was wrong with your rabbit? what did the vet tell you was the name and purpose of the injection/white powder he gave to you? because the vet was supposed to tell you all these things. I'm so sorry once more

He said wen last have i deworm it...i said i dnt know... Mayb datz wat he gave it... Deworm injection...not sure though

Eazie351:
this kind of occurrence saddens my heart, coming especially from prospective rabbit farmers, i totally understand if you didn't slaughter it... just 4 days ago, my mature HylaNg buck got it's legs stuck in the cage net overnight and it broke it's hind legs trying to struggle out of it...I couldn't bring myself to kill it....my point is...we eventually bond with rabbits cos of the care they demand from us is too high hence the reluctancy to slaughter them when sick.

Forza man! you'll rise again... it's an experience gained for you

Exactly bro... U said it all..i couldnt kill it cus i so much love it...but it is gone anyways

Newbreed2018:
Oh no please don't. How will it taste in ur mouth knowing fully well u r eating a pet u so much cherish and attached to? Please don't eat this one. Buy another rabbit in the market and eat. I've seen how much u love this bunny. Allow it to die naturally and dispose. For conscience sake.



Modified: I see u lost the rabbit. So unfortunate. It's well bro. Plz do not attempt to eat. Biko!

No i can't eat that...it is dead already
