Sold four domains!

[mbtaylor]

Last week I sold four of my student related domain names. for a good price (I think). Used Netfleet for the transfer and contacted possible buyers directly.

Still have a few left, so we'll see how the sales process goes over time. I'm new to this whole selling domains business, so hopefully it all works out well! I've got them listed on Netfleet at the moment, but are there any other hot tips?

Well Done . student is a good category and ongoing

Thanks! There are 1.1m students studying in Australia which is why I got into it (sort of) in the first place.

The domains remaining are pretty strong too (union, shop and rent).

We have quite a few clients in the education space, quite a competitive market. Especially if you are a .com.au domain and you try and take on all the .edu.au clients, lucky we even have a few edu clients now as well.

What type of numbers did you sell the domains for if you do not mind disclosing? I can tell you if they are a alright price.

 

[mbtaylor]

No worries. It is a little competitive in certain areas, but there does appear to be silver lining if you work with best practices. But I guess that depends how much hard work one puts into it all!

That's fine - happy to share. Sold the package of 4 for $800. Still have quality (I think) remaining domains left.

Well done!

I've bought more than sold so no expert, but the first sale is always a big thrill!

True

Was a massive thrill! I will post updates on the other domains too.

well done have had a few offers for net.aus lately surprisingly all in the low XXX range.

The variance in prices for domains is really rather surprising. I didn't expect there to be so much difference!
