Buying is not always the issue.. Selling is the bigger problem. Have you sold a domain name before? Be sincere

Apart from Attitude problem, the other issue you have and why u haven't sold your 7 names is RESEARCH

A simple research would have saved you from asking the above question. A simple research would have shown you the right question to ask him

A simple research will show you what kind of name to buy, how to go about the outbound, time to outbound etc


I have never been a fan of read from Page 1, in your Case, i make an exception

If you want to succeed in this business, start reading the thread from Page 1

As you’re reading the first 1000 pages, be mixing it with the latest 1000 pages. Dan.com is extinct.

Please for more thing.

I was trying to pay for credits or points to submit my domains for listing on Atom .com but I couldn't pay. I used a Cleva virtual dollar card. It was saying that I should use a debit card instead.

What an alternative to make payment pls?

Timon card works well for Atom

You're a typical example of Bellamy.

Do you read any page on this thread at all

So few days ago, we got 3 domains based on what the buyer has bought from me before.

We reached out to him about these new 3 and tell him to pay $450 for each. He kept silent. He usually do that if price is not within range or he's not interested.

So 2 days ago, I decided to test him with this template... And it worked. He paid within minutes.

Will share the names later. This is an old customer. He has bought more than 15 names from me if I check well.

Getting a ready and constant buyer in this industry is important. How do you get one or more? Once you sold a domain and you know the buyer, ask him or her if he's still interested to buy such keyword. He's likely to reply yes. Twist the keyword, register it and reach out to him even before sharing the sales report. Give him a discount too if necessary.

That's how to build a trust and get repeated sales.

CRUCIAL HINTS:

I got this hint after another Geo sale I wouldn't like to share for now so that I can explore it more.

Trust me, sales generally are going to be VERY LOW for now (don't let me use the adjective extremely for now).

Ask me why?

Hold on...

I will tell you in the next few lines.

Going by more than 6 tweets I've read from different long-time domainers about their low sales in June plus the total daily low sales report from Namebio plus some of the feedbacks I got from a new domain name I'm currently oubounding on, in no time, I remembered that SUMMER BREAK has commenced all over the world.

And if you know America quite well, you will know of a surety that those guys don't joke with SUMMER VACATION. It's more or less as if you commit an offence punishable under the law for not taking your family for vacation during summer—due to the boredom over there—as shared with me by a close pal who japa with four
kids and wife (over 30M traveling package).

So, don't expect much sales during this period till September.

Onward, if you intend to invest a bit around this time, I will advise you target businesses that get more sales during summer break from international immigrants coming to US for vacation as well. Of course, you know Americans prefer to go out of their borders for their own vacation.

Moreover, for newbies who want to venture into this business, please, let's not encourage them to be lazy by just referring them to bosses for training as the first step. If they can't read first 100 pages and last 100 pages of this thread before training, then they don't worth being trained, in the first place.

How can someone who cannot take his time to read that long be patient to outbound to several end-users?

It is people like that that will end up telling us stories that touch here after being COMPELLED to outbound...sending non-convertible mail that even ended up in the end-users spam folder.

Let's do it right...even during this summer break, there is no day Namebio does not release sales report from domainers all over the world.

Richardomatic cares.

We die here.

Great insight!

NB: "This is only my view, from my own perspectives & data not a General rule "

My sales data shows otherwise for Geo names. Your outbound efforts(knowledge, strategy etc) and God is the only thing that determines propensity of sale (my own view).

But there is usually a peak in The August, ember, January months...cause most people want to improve or make changes for their businesses.

Even this DAN sunsetting shouldn't affect your Geo sales if you're really hardcore. Cause market is really open. This time around I no get that ginger. Everything just seems monotonous to me. Maybe if you're doing one thing for long. I need new ginger! My sales has gone low. I'm gradually drifting from geos, not acquiring new names & exploring other possibilities in the industry.

Like last month for the first time in 4yrs+ I had a month with no sale. This month I had one already. Not bothered.

One day by the grace of God, I'll paste all my Geo sales on this page.

So don't have it in the back of your mind there's a bad month.

Image below(number of geo sales), if Summer was calculated from June to September,,,, those months with 1 sales were zero outbound effort months. Aug 2024 would have been a huge months for geos for me cause I had some bad boyz in the portfolio but DAN happened. I had migrated to Daaz...captured 1 sale.

Most times data can't tell the real picture. Some months one is ill, family problem etc. Just register and outbound as simple as that. If sale go come e go come.

Omor! No let the domain gods hear this oo! Better apologise sharply. This is the creator of the thread of which many have benefited from. Even some Indian guy's dey reference this thread.

From this your spectacular Geo sales report in the different summer vacation year, it shows your business target—probably generally in your portfolio—is vacation-friendly.

This does not mean every domainer should go about registering any Geo because Learner47 sales data shows otherwise.

If you select Geo domains that are not based on his experience criteria and strategy, YOU GO HEAR AM SHARP! SHARP!!

And as per end of the year sales frenzy, you are actually right. I will ensure I take advantage of that, as well, at the end of this year.

Isn't this a good news? Seems like the good old days will return when it comes to buying with your card? I remember the stress of Africard and all this fintech and so on,intact Thier rate sometimes are just discouraging.I hope one can be able to receive as well with the same card.

Good news for the Nigerian banks. Cause I forgot when I used their cards last. I see traditional banks getting hit especially if the income tax is implemented. Make them dey play!

For us mixed feelings. Because the naira-dollar has been floated. Any bank can put any rate they like at any microseconds for receiving or buying. So no difference with these new fintechs.

In fact these new fintechs like Grey might be better because you will be able to see the instantaneous rate they would charge you. But bank fit go do you 2K per naira-dollar on the process of buying because how do one know their rate at the instance of transactions. Do I need to go to their branch and check the ticker, check Google;;;;;; cause the thing no dey show for their apps!

Hello how can we link our domains to afternic or GoDaddy nameservers

Some websites give you the opportunity to convert dollars to it's equivalent in Naira before payment

UnstoppableDomains $5 for a .com on Friday is really nice, @Shapman just help me secure 2 names for #7500 each, though I added 1k for each registration to encourage him Incase of next time making #17k for two names, if you ask me, I'll tell you it's a good deal. So if you're someone like me that can't register domain directly by himself you can consider contacting him for that service, also free domain transfer to UnstoppableDomains is still on going contact Shapman for it as well very kind, honest and responsive guy.

Ok

Naira Mastercard is now working, but don't let anybody fool you.

All those fintech people who felt their food would not be taken from them will learn the hard way before the 2027 election because they will be the sacrificial lambs to sway voters and this means job losses may hit some of those. At the current state of things, we were at the point of having oversupply of virtual card merchants, every fintech start-up is almost into virtual card services.

I have tested it and I was able to fund my Dynadot account.

BUT I AM NEVER VOTING APC. THEY HAVE TO GO.

When we said here that they deliberately destroyed everything, most Nigerian youths thought it was a conspiracy theory.

If you followed the Coalition meeting a few days ago and the aftermath of what APC has been doing, with EVERYONE of them running like insects that inhaled insecticide, you would know that the Naira Mastercard working is one of the first attempts to gain public trust.

Don't be surprised that ATMs across banks will start working too, and POS machines for withdrawing money may be eliminated.

This is to tell you that SOMEONE came up with the idea to destroy our banking sector to profit their pocket. It took just a coalition of strong faces to rattle them.

These people have destroyed millions of lives, reduced purchasing power to the barest minimum. I ran Facebook ads last week targeting Nigeria and Ghana, and honestly, the kind of responses I was getting from Nigerians almost made me cry. While the 2 Ghanaians who reached out to me focused on what the ads were all about. Nigerians, on the other hand, were just time-wasters. Even this morning, one responded to my ad, and guess what, he was begging for money. Yup... Someone clicked on my ad to WhatsApp to beg for money.

It wasn't always like that a couple of years ago.

I didn't blame them, I understood the root cause, and that was why I felt bad.

You can ignore politics all you want, but politics will never ignore you.
