DomainNameSales.com, announced today that they have new integrations with Godaddy.com and DomainTools.com that allow its customers to list the domain names in their DomainNameSales.com account on a make-offer basis at Godaddy.com and DomainTools.com.
When a Godaddy or DomainTools customer conducts an exact match search of a DomainNameSales.com customer’s domain name they will be directed to an inquiry page where the buyers details are sent directly to DomainNameSales.com.
From there the buyer will be assigned to one of our 19 brokers depending on language, location, and domain name category.
They will then have the opportunity to request a price from our client, who can use our website or the patented DNS iPhone application to communicate with our team, and to complete the purchase of our client’s domain name through DomainNameSales or Godaddy.
“This is not your typical MLS, Instant Transfer service that many closed marketplaces offer.
This is a mechanism for negotiating in real time with leads from Godaddy and Domaintools.
Unlike pre-priced, buy-it now situations, this method allows sellers to price their domain names based on current market conditions, not on some historical price or an outdated metric.” Said, Vice President of Sales, Jeffrey Gabriel.
“We have been using this technology on our owned and operated portfolio and have seen a lift of up to 30% on inbound sales leads.
Our patented application coupled with the only transparent and open sales-management system gives Domain owners information and control over their leads, completely unlike the structure of other Sales platforms.
We are working on additional registrar partnerships and sales channels to provide this same service across any other site capable of generating domain sales leads.” said, Managing Director of DomainNameSales.com, Frank Schilling.””
On a personal note, I have been listing my domains at Godaddy.com through Sedo with a make offer $5K minimum and been frustrated that Godaddy.com shows the domain name as being in auction.
This has caused a lot of confusion by potential buyers
I have gotten many emails from potential buyers who have written me asking about a domain we own, say that they see it being “at auction” at Godaddy.com.
Some have offered me less than $5,000 based on the domain being “in auction” for $5K. Others don’t understand why the asking price of a domain like stuff.com is in the six figures when its at auction with out any bids at $5,000 at Godaddy.
I certainly makes for a very hard sale.
I have chatted to Godaddy about this issue many times, but they seem unwilling to make a change to properly reflect that these domain are not at auction but are for sale with a $5k minimum.
DomainNameSales.com new product may solve this problem.
