To say the truth, I can feel the impact somehow. Price hasn't really dropped but quantity has increased - we might say that's an indirect reduction in price, though.

Lifec7811:
Pls which websites can I use to register a domain name for freeee

None that I know of. That actually sounded funny.

Congrats to all recent sellers!

chicfarmer:
Congrats!!

Abeg who sabi set ED filter to show expired domains for last 120 days or more.
The thing dey only show me expired domains of past 30 days irrespective of the option I choose above 30 days.
Is there something else I should do after selecting my preferred option?

I can't provide a screenshot to show you right now because I am currently using Opera Mini. But let me try to describe.

When you're viewing the list of domain names, look at the part above the filter, save, and copy options - near top-left. You will notice a drop-down field. Click on it and you will see things like Deleted (extension) 2024-06, 2024-05... Those are the lists of deleted domains in each month. Just click on the one(s) you want.

Jimneighbour:
I used Dan's name server and forgot to list it for sale... thank you

You're welcome. In that case, pay no attention to the fellow.

I do not understand how a domain hosted with nameservers like those of a marketplace would be used for spam, malware, or whatever.

Jimneighbour:
I Received a mail from godaddy that someone is trying to contact me consigning my domain name.( i forgot to list for sale) the email address of the person godaddy gave wasn't correct, please how can I reach out to godaddy.

The content of the mail is even confusing, I don't know if the person is interested or something else


@ U1

What nameservers did you assign to the domain? The message suggests that it was being used for improper purposes.

Since this is not sales related, I would only investigate the claims (starting from checking the nameservers) if this was my domain. I may not bother much contacting the individual, especially since their email address isn't correct.

I have never experienced something like this, though. Besides, I only started considering GoDaddy again because of Closeouts from last week or so. I stopped using them several years ago because of high prices and paid WHOIS privacy.

Gpexchange:
The transfer fee is all you will pay since its not registered at godaddy it will also be renewed automatically no added cost....

Okay, thanks!

Gpexchange:
Lol there are no secrets to domaining everything you need is already out in the open(unless u are referring to my post I said 1 or 2 secret that wan na joke oh ).... Last thing you need is to actually have interest in the business more than just making money with it..u need to love it... if U enter am expecting cash just like that it won't work..... everyone can't do well in every business.. just go try something else..

And no matter how much someone babysit u and teach and give you information... u won't still do well unless you go and find your own thing by yasef....


And lastly wetin u wan use my names do Abi u wan use am find my portfolio lol... Or na tactics to make me type it out.... Oya take a few ...

From the ugly cause of end user uses it Knx..Usa, Go..leasy, K.alent, Gen.AiE

To the not so ugly
OptimizeLabs, Veriful, Nuqleus and Precysion...
There is a good reason people don't share their portfolio names is to avoid receiving rubbish fake offers Everytime randomly.....

In other news which one of u be this na.... early Monday morning too..

I really respect your willingness to go to this length to explain. Many people don't have the patience to convince pessimistic individuals.

Motivational speakers would often say something along the line, "if you think you can or can't, you are right." The glass can be half-full or half-empty at the same time; it's all about perspectives.

For those who would chose to be optimistic, you only need to know that everybody's results may not be like those of 2sexycom, iykepromotions, AwesomeDuru, protocol, Gpexchange, iCauseTrouble, ikhalifah e.t.c. But your efforts will not go in vain if you stay positive, make well-informed decisions (from constant learning), and let God do the rest.

I looked at a closeout domain a while ago and I saw it would have a "one-time transfer fee" added to the cost instead of the standard GoDaddy renewal fee. I assumed the name was at another registrar.

Could someone please let me know if I will still have to pay GoDaddy renewal fee after paying the transfer fee for a domain like that?

Home address is different from billing in Gd... Billing is for the card...home is for your account.... wen they asked for id it's Nigerian id I sent

Okay, thanks!

Gpexchange:
Change your billing address to usa or other countries with no tax ... But USA sha can use grey address or anything else ..

Thanks, bro. Hmm...I think my home address is also the billing address, no?

I wouldn't want a situation where the address in my WHOIS information would be USA when I don't live there.

I also appreciate your response, Jimneighbour.

Abeg, people who buy from GoDaddy Closeouts, do you normally pay tax aside the ICANN fee?

I checked one domain and dem knack am $2.04 taxes.

Bought from gd closeout 16$...I let it reach 5$ cause I didn't wanna buy it jare but close eye buy am last minute.. 5$ plus 11$ renewal cause it was an external domain not GoDaddy own

Bro, abeg something came to mind regarding this sale. By external domain, did you mean that you had to register an account with the other registrar? Or was domain renewed at that registrar and then transferred to your GoDaddy account?

trafficpools:
scrap!!!!!!!!!!!!

...until someone sells it.

X users, I have been getting a lot of spam followers in recent weeks. They usually have "foreign" female pictures and no posts, with hints of being used for adult-related purposes. Is anyone else experiencing this?

It's strange because I primarily created this X account for domain and maybe other money-making topics. Plus, I don't comment on romance, dating, or Nigerian issues with the account.

Gpexchange:
Sales Report... Funny yesterday how I said I had none ,This thing dey suprise me pass una oh cause am used to 3 sales a year .. warris dis.. no worry sha this could be last sale for the year... Make I prepare for draught


Ado,yah,com..(example of names I say u will skip on Ed and someone else will check..I honestly don't remember why I stopped)

Ht 2 months

Ed deleted drop reg 5$ at z,com ( transfering was less confusing than I thought it would be...I doubt Dan had account to push so good thing they waited 2 months)


Regged cause other extension was taken and it seemed to be a name but Google didn't show any reasonable LinkedIn results for the name so I guess rare name and no interest..... But I pick cause the other extension was reg last year and got renewed this year so maybe someone was building something I don't know ......

The man, the man. Congrats!

People who currently have domains at GoDaddy, could you please let me know if they now offer free WHOIS privacy?

Also, is their .com renewal fee really $22+?

Gpexchange, calm down for where? We (or I) dey look forward to those reports.

CapitalBank:
But you take risk target only one end user? It works sometimes and not all the time.

You're right. But I guess that's the style that God allows to work for him. Names that seemingly have no "obvious" end-users sell after all.

Like this, I get names with plenty leads wey never sell for low hundreds with outbound marketing.

Gpexchange:
Nope



No nah ... Atleast the cash flow is conSIStent ...

for the only 2 ones i have regged... I use us address tho all this nonsense emails u will get cause it's not private gets pretty exhausting....

Thanks, bro!

Please I have a question for people who own .us domains: do you use your Nigerian address or n US address for the WHOIS information?

I'm a little confused how some people here were able to register such and even sold them. I understood domain privacy didn't apply to this extension.

Congrats on another massive sale, bro. Wow!

It's at times like this that domain outbound marketing for low hundred-priced domains go just taya me. Send email so tey, reduce prices...and to still get sales...

Omo, better oil dey your head.

gentlekeny:
Among the 101 tips for new domainers is having a professional email.

Using names like: SexyCynthia247 @ Gmail.com or other stuffs that are not branded or portrays you as a domainer is minus in your outboundings.

This is one of my emails: Domainsales@usa.com

You grab the message now.

This could be one of the reasons why you're not taken seriously.

Thanks for the tip!

I guess that meant you send all emails (including follow-ups) manually, right?

HIGHESTPOPORI:
Congrats,what's your portfolio size now

Thanks, bruh.

I honestly don't keep tabs on portfolio size. But I think it's currently between 500 and 600, judging by domain counts at different registrars. That number includes all extensions and domains that have expired/in redemption period.

I can say portfolio size doesn't matter much, though. It's about quality and grace. I have seen people with significantly lower portfolio sizes making more regular or high-figure sales. God has been good all the same!

Second-Quarter Sales (First to Last)

Austin//Art//Therapy (in king) | $588 (inbound) | DAN (via Reseller Network) | ED | ~2 months

Home//Renovation//Miami (in king) | $250 (outbound counter-offer) | DAN | ED | ~2 & half months

Online//Couples//Counselor (in king) | $75 (outbound counter-offer ) | Afternic | ED | 5+ months

Midwest//Foot//And//Ankle (in king) | $399 (outbound/inbound) | DAN (via Reseller Network) | ED | ~3 months

Gainesville//Tow (in king) | $250 (outbound counter-offer) | DAN | ED | 2 & half months

Yard//Art//Landscaping (in king) | $350 (outbound/inbound) | DAN (via Reseller Network) | ED | 3+ months

Atlanta//Transmission (in king) | $150 (inbound) | Afternic | ED | 16 months

The "counselor" sale is my second-lowest so far; the lowest was $69 back around when I started making sales. I did a one-day discount price of $100. The one person who responded later in the day offered $75 and I accepted, provided they paid within a limited time. When I looked at the search stat file weeks later, I felt I greatly undersold. But it's still a gain, so I move.

The Atlanta sale was a curious one. When I saw the Afternic email, I was so happy. But when I saw the sale price, the happiness reduced. I had that domain priced at $495 and pointed to DAN! Initially, I couldn't remember how the price was set to $150 at Afternic; even when I offered a discount during outbound, it was $299. I later found out that I had reduced the price along with those of some other domains that would be due for renewal by February; forgot to change it there after the renewal. I had to quickly go and check my Afternic portfolio after the sale and couldn't find any other domain priced so low. The buyer was lucky. 🤨 To cap it all, I have not received the payout 20 days after!

That Atlanta sale was the only one I had in June.

Glory to God! More wins for all of us in Jesus name.

chicfarmer, thanks for the Porkbun coupons you shared the other time. Every single one worked!

Without those codes, I had no reason to register any new domains.

Bea1234:
Ok boss. But I mean how do I remove/stop it from resending over and over again.. it keeps resending automatically

AFAIK there's nothing you can do about those failure delivery emails. You will keep receiving them daily until the hours indicated fully elapsed.

I usually set a filter to have those emails sent to the bin folder automatically. I check the bin folder, as necessary, to see what's there.

Mhmm am trying to make my posts as short as possible but for some reason it go still long wahala.. :-

Congrats on another big sale I can only dream of...at least for now.

Abeg continue with the long posts. These things often happen when you are trying to paint a more vivid picture. I enjoyed them.

Congrats on the sales!

I found some of the sold domains interesting, especially this one. A name focused mainly at a location in Canada!

I have never managed to sell what I might consider better domain names to businesses in Canada - not one, even for 99 bucks! And to think that this name seems available in the .ca extension. Wow, God is wonderful!

More success!

chicfarmer:
Yes, separately. Try it, they will all go through. I have been able to use three so far because of limited funds though.

Wow, that's interesting! Thanks for the feedback.

I wasn't planning to register any new names, but this could change my mind.

chicfarmer:
Thank you.

Plus you can also buy for $5.99 on same Porkburn with the following promo codes:
NOTAROBOT - 1 name
VIKAS - 1 name
LARAVEL24 - 1 name
GENERATIONTECH24- 1 name
CRAYLORMADE - 1 name
MRKEHEL- 3 names.

Thanks for sharing!

A quick question: were you able to use each one of these separately?

I think I used to get message along the line that I could not use coupon codes anymore because I have used something similar (same price). Because of this, I have only managed to get that extra $1 discount once if I remember correctly.

Elzak:
Hello bosses in the house.

I want to register a name and I'm planning to use namecheap. Doesn't appear to me that namecheap is frequently used here. Please, is it advisable? Thanks.

People use it here. But wait until you need to renew the domain name, if you wish to, the price fit make you think twice.

Recently, I had to do what I don't usually like doing: I transferred the remaining four domains I had registered for 7.16 each at NC to Dynadot. The renewal price was a major turn-off.
