I have searched the web several days to find the best solution to sell a domain name and I am still not sure if that solution exists. Could you please tell me what is the best way to sell a domain? And another question, what is the SEDO comision, 10% or 20% ?
I have found ebay to be a better place to sell domains. Since buyers on Sedo are well versed and seasoned domainers, it is not possible to get "better than worth" deals. However, on ebay, with the proper auction copy, it is possible to hype up the value of the domain and find a buyer willing to pay price higher than the worth of the domain.
Not to sure if sedo is the best but i would try the b,s,t section in this forum and also try namepros.com forum there quite good for domains.
sedo will screen your domain first become going inti their marketplace ...only quality domain are qualify ... as mentioned above , ebay or NP are your alternative good luck
sedo is 10% commission ($50 minimum) That means if your domain sells for $100 (sedo gets $50 commission) I wouldn't recommend using sedo unless you have a domain that will sell for at least $500 Hope it helps!
I find that forums are great for average and slightly above average domains. SEDO will give you an extra edge for rare domain names
I have a question regarding PayPal. I heard that if you sell something, the buyer can cancel the payment and paypal will refund him. Can't I get scammed by selling a domain name and then after a period of time the buyer would ask for a refund? I would lose both the money and the domain :| I heard about lots of people using AlertPay that have their accounts on negative balance because their buyers asked refunds and I think PayPal uses the same system as AlertPay. So how can I be sure that after I receive the money on PayPal, they are MY money forever?
how can our domain is listed on their homepage list? because I see most domain listed there are so nice worth. or the buyer is must bidding first during the domain is parked.
Sedo is good. The domain forums are good. From our experience though, the best way to sell domains is to note that the name is for sale in the whois and at the bottom of the landers, with a link to buy or make offer. Then pick names for Sedo and the forums too. Sedo has a lot of frequent buyers. The ebay suggestion is just ok in our experience.
If i buy a domain today at name.com, can I sell it right away? I read somewhere that only after 3 months you can sell it... is that true?
you can sell names and push them within the same registrar. the 60 day icann hold after transfers applies to transfers between registrars.
yes it is true that paypal will reverse transactions. sometimes it is not even paypal doing the reversing- it is the buyer charging back weeks or months later for whatever reason. fraud and hacked accounts are another reason paypal reverses transactions.
