Selling a Domain

Here are some great places where you usually can sell your domains/sites quickly. Let's first start off with Ebay. When you list a site or domain for sale you can choose to list it for 7, 5 or 3 days. Best is to list it for 5 days in my personal experience.

Then there's the domain name auction sites :

Flippa is a very popular choice for flippers and lots of people had great success with this site. I would recommend the 24 hour listing.

Sedo provides the best and largest variety of online domain auctions. However keep in mind that to sell your domain name via Sedo auction you normally need to have an (Sedo) offer on your domain first. To put your domain names for sale on Sedo I would advice to do the domain parking there first. Your parked domain will display a sales message and a link to an offer page. This way your domain will be 4 times more likely to sell. Also make sure that if you have multiple domains for sale on Sedo that all your offer pages are connected. To do this: Log in, navigate to My Sedo > Domain Management, and click on any domain name. Deselect the box next to “Do not link to my entire portfolio from this offer page,” select the option to “Apply this setting to all of my domains,” and save your changes. Sedo works together with Greatdomains which is a platform where you can sell only the most valuable premium domain names.

Afternic is one of the biggest domain auction sites and it is therefore a great domain selling platform. Note: To sell domains on Afternic it costs $19.95 per year.

GoDaddy Auctions has a lot of active auctions as well. To sell your domains on GoDaddy auctions it will cost you $4.99 per year. You can also opt to get a premium listing at Godaddy for your domains. With a premium listing your domain name will get a lot of exposure but if the domain gets sold you will need to pay a 30% commission to Godaddy.

Bido is a great marketplace to quickly liquidate your domains. You can even make money by voting on other people's domains.

Cax.com is a nice auction house for selling your domains. Listing your domains is free, you pay a 12% commission when your domain gets sold (escrow fee included).

Then there's also a lot of forums where you can sell domain names free ( no listing fees ). Namepros and DN Forum offer a good platform to sell your domains.

Last but not least, a great tool to showcase and sell your domains is our domain portfolio script which you can find here!
