Na your type SH need. cheesy

Actually, this isn't about the naming contests. Log in to Squadhelp and use this link (log in first before using the link):
www. squadhelp. com/marketplace-listings.
Then you'll see where it is written "submit names..."
Choose "submit Unregistered".
You'll most likely have 3 slots per time.
The naming contests is another aspect entirely.
.
Eeeya... sad
It won't work. It's not something that guarantees instant gratification/reward/return. Some names sell within month's of listing and some take years to sell.
More so, finding an honest person ready to collaborate with you... lipsrsealed

Follow the link I provide above, and start submitting names for free.


You can volunteer to outboud domains for people who are too busy to outbound.
You can volunteer to help them find end users for their domains.
Fix your price and you'll be surprised at the number of people who need your services.
Ps: You can learn how to do the above by reading my posts on this thread.
Thanks alot ...
So grateful
i've been following....
I Pray the hustle will pay oneday for all...it's been long on the track and mama is getting no younger....


P.S: boss... if there's any one they didn't pick can i still buy it if it's available when I gett some money...?

Yes. Absolutely. There are names I suggested to Squadhelp, they were rejected, and I went ahead to register them myself, and list on other marketplaces.

STAYING UPDATED. FOLLOW THE TRENDS/NEWS.

Straight to the point.
You see this domain investing, you have to be current. You need to know what's happening/trending in the domain world and outside (globally). Why?

1. Registrar's run promos from time to time. Domains that should cost $8 are made available for $6 or less. Some also create sweet/affordable transfer deals. So you have to be current in order not to miss the info.

2. In the domain industry, registrars (you already know what a registrar is) and marketplaces sometimes FIGHT/QUARREL with each other. And when two elephants fight, it's the grass (domainers) that always suffer. Example: SAV registrar currently have a FIGHT with DAN domain Marketplace (the other way actually). Because of this, if you bought/registered your domains at SAV .com, you CANNOT sell it at DAN marketplace. And you know how important DAN marketplace is. So if you are someone who likes DAN marketplace, then you'll avoid SAV registrar.
There are also other ongoing 'Fights' among marketplace and registrars. So you need to be current.

3. From time to time, there are new developments in the world, from tech, to lifestyle, to sports. As a Domainer, if you are always current, then you stand a greater chance of profiting from trends. Just imagine the people who were first to grab/register good bitcoin names. BitcoinMarket, BTCMarket, GoBitcoin, etc. That's cool money! Currently, NFT (Non Fungible Tokens) is trending. Many NFT names have been registered and there's been Many report of Sales in $$$$.
Also, sometimes last year, someone reported (on twitter) he sold 2 .VC (.VC is an extension like .com) domains for about $4999 in quick succession. When the new got out, many domainers started registering .VC domains. Even me, I registered 3. Though no sales yet. But Many have reported sales. So you see the importance of being current.

4. Sometimes, domain brokers make public posts on various media platforms requesting for certain types of names. If you have what they need, then you stand a good chance of selling your domains that way.

5. Some domains sell well at specific marketplaces. If you are current, then you'll know which marketplace is suitable for your domains.

6. There are pros in this business with thousands, and hundreds of thousands of Domains. From time to time, they share golden nuggets/insights/info about pricing, marketplace, etc. Generally, what has worked for them and what isn't working. If you want to climb up the Domain investing ladder, then you better pay attention to what they are saying.

There are still more reason why you should be current/up-to-date. But let me stop this post here.
Next, I'll post some domain industry related Twitter handles to follow. As a Domainer, After registering at Namepros (the largest domain forum in the world), Twitter is the next place you need to get an account. The domain industry's big boys and girls are there.

Receiving your payment is very easy. Each marketplace have their methods of payout. Wire transfer is common among all marketplaces (excluding SH). You just need to fill out your details and the money will enter your normal naija bank account.
Some also do payments through bitcoin & Payoneer.

5 days usually with wire transfer. Some marketplaces like epik do use TransferWise sometimes (I think).

Let me answer that one, it is ,
but go for domains that are easy to memorize, easy to remember and spell, English words.

Yes. Depending on a lot of factors, including where the double letter is placed, if they are English words, and the domain length.


Short Domains with double letters can make great and interesting brandables.
Hott/com
Legiit/com
Zaxxo/com
Payoneer/com
Avoid double letter domains that are not a combination of English words.
Example:
OptimalLife/com has two 'L's'. It would make a good domain. You can also remove one 'L', and it would still make sense. I.e, OptimaLife//com.

Are your domains better than the one the end users are currently using?
Are you using a professional email address?
How about your landing page?
Is your asking price reasonable?
Are you outbounding to the right people/end users?

Afternic has several partners. When you list your domains at Afternic, they become visible at the website of those partners.
Now, when you list your domains at Afternic, there are two options available as it relates to how your domains are visible on the website of those partners.
There's the STANDARD NETWORK and the PREMIUM NETWORK.
when you list your domains at Afternic, automatically, it's in the standard network.
The PREMIUM network has a wider reach (more visibility). But only names without the 60 days transfer lock can be listed on the premium network.
Most likely, your names are not up to 60 days old, so you will keep getting these messages. After 60 days from registration, go to your registrar and enable Afternic FAST TRANSFER.

Outbound Tool (android)

One of the frustrating things about outbounding is not getting a reply. You don't even know if your emails are being read or it's landing in the spam box. �.
Let me introduce BOOMERANG android app. ✅

Boomerang app let's you know if the end user has opened the email you sent. It also shows you the number of times the end user opened the email (although not 100% accurate as it sometimes track your own views. So don't open the email you sent too often, or take note of the number of times you opened the particular sent email, so that you can accurately track things).

It is important to know if your mails have been seen/opened by the end user. With that information, you can effectively do follow-ups. The number of times your emails are opened can also be an indicator of interest. So, you can then follow up with a reduced price if no reply from the end user after opening the emails multiple times.

I also discovered that with boomerang, there is a greater likelihood for your emails to land in the end users inbox.

How to get the app

Go to google play store and find boomerang email app.
Download boomerang on Google play Store.
Open boomerang. Connect your Gmail/email account by signing in and allowing boomerang to manage your mails.

The app currently has over 500 thousand downloads.

To compose message, click that box (see the first screenshot) below.

Enter your message, address, subject, closing, etc. Then click the '+' Sign as seen in the second screenshot.

Next, click 'Read Receipt', and send.

Note: sometimes the end user might have read the message but boomerang won't notify you, due to many factors. But in the majority case, you will be notified.

If you have a keyword domain like InvestorHub, VitalCare, GoClean, etc, ProductHunt .com and CrunchBase .com can be a good place to find end users.

About productHunt:
Product Hunt is a site where you find the latest brand, companies, Products, website, tech, etc

So when you visit productHunt site, type your main keyword in the search bar, then search. If you see a potential end-user, the contact address is usually there for you to get in touch with them.

CrunchBase: This site has a list of thousands of companies, organisation, etc. To find end users for your domain. Type in your main keyword in the search bar. But DON'T hit search. Just type it in the search bar without clicking search. You'll see a list of relevant organisations. Check them out one by one to see if there's a website address. If there is, visit the website and search for the contact details.

A note of warning: when reaching out to end users make sure what you are pitching to them is relevant and related to their brand. I already said this in my outbounding guidelines.

Good luck. kiss
