SanThiago:
Asking a rookie question boss, apologies.

If transfer from Epik to GoDaddy using Auth code, do I pay for the transfer? Is it like reregistering it afresh on GoDaddy?

Normally, you don't pay to transfer out, except you're dealing with a crazy registrar.

It's the owner of the receiving account (at GoDaddy in this case) that will pay. And that money will be used to extend the expiration date of the domain by one year.

BOOKWORMLUX:
Create new email addresses

When you create a new email address, sign it up to about 5 different newsletters

Let it receive emails for a day or two

You can then start using it to outbound

You can even send up to 100 mails per day with the new email address

This guy! Sense no go kill una.

Esiman:
I have an email for each pen name or brand. You can include it if you want.

Thanks!

byrron:
I don't include my contact on any of my published books, however, I insert my website link that contains all my other published books with a clickable link to the sales page on Amazon for each of the books.

Just gave you an exclusive pro tip meant for my students alone.

Cheers.

Thanks, boss.

Good morning. I am wondering about something and would like self-publishers in the house to chip in.

Did you include your contact information in the books that have good results? Is it advisable to not include it?

I read that one can publish using a pen name and I was wondering how that would work.

cc eliok, byrron, emceecee, pennywise2, Esiman, ANYONE

Borntosmoke:

I can now confirm that this method works. Thanks for sharing!

However, for convenience, I would advise anyone that has money to just pay.

symbuul:
Guys how can I request for a refund on a domain I purchased yesterday on sav? Abeg make una help. On their site, they said one should delete the domain and get a refund if it meets their refund policy. I dey fear to delete o.
Anybody don experience am?

In case of next time, simply delete to get your refund.

But please note that you can only get refunds for 10% of your registrations in a month - a minimum of one - from what I remember. Your money is a gone if you delete more than that and I learnt that the hard way.

Sales Alert !!!
Domain name : Vegas // Headshots // dot // com
Sales venue: Dan Hold Time: <2months

More golden sales to everyone.

Congrats! I tap in Jesus's name.

Brandable people in the house, please could you let me know what to do about the email from BrandBucket to review/adjust listing prices?

I have only two accepted listings there. According to their email, I haven't updated prices in more than 90 days. They have been sending me this email weekly to review prices.

I don't want to increase prices so that won't block sales and reductions are out of the question.

Must I change prices periodically? Please guide me.

Thanks, boss!

Every possibility has to be considered at this point.

webizone:
That's the essence of going cashless. They can wake up tomorrow and declare that you now own only 50% of money in your account. If you doubt it can happen, go and ask Cyprus.

Sir, please could you provide a link where I can read about the bold? I tried searching but couldn't find something useful.

CalabarPikin:
This is getting real

I wish they can address the unnecessary deductions by first bank especially

Oh, yeah. If wishes were horses... Nothing would be done.

That's how Wema Alat deducted SMS charges from my balance in advance (through 25 December) barely days after deducting same amount for November. Na account closure go end that matter.

This country is just messed up. Big time!

EtimAbasiama:
When I get money na so I go dey behave..

See this man. You dey whine me ni? You wey I know your moniker wella when it comes to sales. Abi no be you be Cyril's guy again?

Sapiosexuality:
Welcome. It seems you mentioned he that must not be named n a m e c h e a p.

You might not believe, but I actually thought that was probably why you spelt it that way in your response after I noticed the ban.

Well, the renewal cost was just a part of the reasons I thought Dynadot may be better. The other was the WHOIS check info.

Besides, I thought it would be rather unfair on my part to be getting cheap first-year prices (below registry price) at one registrar and moving elsewhere if and when I want to renew. Meh, I know.

U1:
I would advise anyone who can afford the extra 1-2 bucks it would cost to register a domain name on Dynadot (compared to Sav) to do so, at least for now. Those 1-2 bucks might be the difference between losing a potential sale.

Sapiosexuality and HIScraziness, the attached was my reply to your responses to the above post last Sunday. I got banned for replying until Wednesday night, even mailing the mods made no difference.

I just thought I should still share because I copied the post and later saved. Who knows it might be useful to someone.

In other news, is there anyone here that provides contact or business names along with scraped email addresses, especially from GMaps? I found only email addresses were provided by those I tried in the past, but I don't usually work with just that.

Thank God for the sale! This na unexpected bonus.

More, bigger sales for everyone!

HardMirror:
wema resolved today as much as your limit allows you to withdraw

Um, I am afraid I don't quite understand this.

Update: I think I get it now.

Ddworld:
You should be able to withdraw or transfer. Possibly maybe wema bank has issues. So, what did they expect you to do with the money? Are they forcing you to sell at NIFEX rate or dash them? Atleast there should be an option unless your account has issues

No cap. This is not just a Wema Bank thing.

I was told a similar thing at an FCMB branch after visiting multiple branches and being unable to withdraw just $240 (my first). I thought about transferring the money elsewhere (even to the source) instead but they said that's not allowed. When I asked what the staff member would suggest I do in the situation, she said nothing other than there was no dollar. Imagine.

It could have been worse, though. I would have withdrawn about $255 more without paying more in fee than what I paid to withdraw the same amount to that account. But I decided to test the waters first.

Tokskob2008:
This government is so messed up and every of their policies has always been in line to exterminate the common man. Right from closing up the borders which lead to an unimaginable hunger all round to realising terrorist back into the society which lead to worsening insecurity to numerous financial jargons.

You send money to an account the sender pay charges while you as the recipient also pay, all of a sudden they stopped direct international transfers to local accounts saying you have to go and get your dollars by hand and now they are saying you can't get the Dollar again so what do they expect people to do now

You have stated it all!

Nobody should tell me this government is up to any good abeg. This country has just been put in a state to frustrate the common man. With all that is happening, it's hard to believe we still have a president in this country. Damn!

On the topic, I saw this coming. So I did all I could to withdraw my little balances to less than 100 bucks in my "lite" accounts. This involved visiting multiple branches in different parts of Lagos and requesting no more than 100 bucks each time for the last withdrawals.

Interestingly, I found it easier withdrawing from Wema (Alat) and even got $100 bills. I was only lucky to get $20 bills or even get to withdraw at all from the other account that I opened because I had practically maxed out the Alat Dom Lite limit.

What a country.

Harllaby:
So decision is buy, put price tag, and keeping renewing for as long as dot net keep renewing.

This right here is an idea I started contemplating this year, but only for domains that have more than one or two potential end users.

Na so I pitch a .com domain name to one business using the .net version, dem no respond. I discounted the price, dem no buy. They simply went right on to renew their .net for like 4-5 years.

yemight2776:
Targeted just one enduser and he later bought it.

Hold time: 1 month

Congrats on the sale!

To think I was contemplating putting a stop to registering tree service-related names.

U1:
I'm thinking an email warming tool might help to address this spam issue to an extent. I can't be definite about this yet until when I started using the email address that I recently decided to warm again.

You may test or read about the tool by GMass.

An update on this.

I think I can state at this point that email warming does seem to indeed improve deliverability.

Yes, you might not get responses sometimes. But the signs suggest more emails are reaching the inbox. That's an important first step to making a potential sale.

Sad. The real question is: what can be done against these real estate companies?

Some that have been around for 10+ years also do this!

Sale report!

Name: Joliet//DUI//Lawyer (king)
BIN: 399
SP: 399 (imported lead)
Type: Outbound
HT: 2 months (sold <12 hours after outbound)
Marketplace: DAN

The experience...

I didn't get to see the reply to my initial email on time asking to know the price.

By the time I replied with the BIN price, I didn't know that a digital marketing pro was also copied in the price request email. The person had provided a 300-500 range down the email thread but I didn't see it until after replying with the price.

I just decided to leave things as they were. Buyer then offered $300 but I didn't accept. He didn't reply for a while before then asking how to proceed. I just imported the lead on DAN.

But he didn't complete the transaction until I went to bed. In a follow up, I found out he seemed to want a further reduction. I locked up.

Saw sale notifications in the morning.

Glory to God!

ClixMaster:
I have never sold a domain without site on it. Sold two last month. So there's nothing strange about what he is experiencing. This one on my signature sef was sold yesterday for 580$

So, do you sell just the domain or together with site eventually?

RESHARPENED:
Register on Grey.co. it's what I use.

Link the GBP account to KDP. You'll get paid in GBP. You can also convert your funds to NAIRA within Grey.

Best way get maximum value for your money is to first convert GBP to USD. Then, convert the USD to Naira.

Another alternative is Wise.com. But you need a valid international passport for that.

On the bold, were you aware that Grey deducted 1% each time you swapped (or exchanged) currencies?

Mcslize:
People want detailed information on specific problems. Those blog posts on Google may be too short to do justice to the particular problem a person is seeking solution to.

They just want something more detailed and well structured to read to solve any issue or problem they are facing.

Book writing is all about solving people problems in a written format. Most Amazon readers want something more detailed and quality filled. That's why.

Most of my books are 15k-80k words long, depending on the title and well packed with quality contents and properly structured.

Amazon is a long term business model. So one needs to always ditch out quality contents to be able to stand the test of time.

Thanks for your detailed response.

I have always wondered how people are able to make money from KDP publishing, especially with a book of like 3,000 words. This is because there are free blog posts via Google that seem to do a great job on some topics that the books cover.

Could someone shed light on this, please?

Congrats on the sale!

One can never tell what can sell in this business 100%. I have never registered this sort of name, even though I do see them. I feel it's practically limited or limiting (just one auto brand).
