    does anyone have experience selling a domain name at sedo, afternic, or snapnames? which one would you recommend?

    also, the domain name i am thinking of selling is d-b.net, any ideas how much it should fetch? i haven't been paying much attention to domain name prices, my field is programming mostly.

    note this is not an auction thread. i am at the information-gathering stage.

    I'd say around $250-500 for that name.

    Where you ultimately decide to sell it depends on you. Each service is going to offer different things.

    All are decent places to sell domains. I can tell you hands down sedo will give you the most money for that domain name.

    Unfortunately they will take a 10% or $50 (whichever is higher). That means if your domain sells for $100 (They will take $50 away leaving you with $50). If you feel certain that your domain will sell for more than $500 sell it on sedo, if not sell it on digitalpoint (no listing fee).

    Good Luck!

    thanks for the link! it says $225... hmmm. i think i can get more than that, d-b can mean 'database'.

    i have been looking around at sedo. getting the intial bid is the hard part isn't it? it would be nice if they had a "newly listed" section... but it seems people have to actively search for new listings.

    get a friend to put minimum bid at 60 and click start auction, though you have to be willing to accept whatever outcome. also use their parking first, much lower commission.

    If you want to promote a $1,000+ domain, Sedo.com is good place.
