Where should people be posting their names for sale?

Rick Latona · 03-13-2009, 01:16 AM

What would you guys rather see? It seams like people are posting names for sale all over the place.

Would you rather see one large buy/sell/trade thread or have it broken down?

Daniel Dryzek · 03-13-2009, 08:03 AM

Put one single buy/sell/trade forum under each country's extension <-- that will make sense and will keep forum clean. Now offers are all over the place.

one thread for buying, one for selling. Not sure how many people "trade" domains

Edwin · 03-13-2009, 09:38 AM

Have a single forum under each cctld section.

Implement a pulldown so that people can "prefix" their thread with "Wanted:", "For sale:", "Trade:" and perhaps one or two more options, and then visitors can instantly glance down the list of threads and check out just the ones that interest them. I've seen that on a few other vb-powered forum, so I guess there must be some kind of plugin for this.

Have a rule of 1 thread per CCTLD per 24 hours (or even stricter) to stop the forum being deluged by a single over-zealous poster.

With the above, I believe you'll have a nice, tidy, easy to use sales system.

Tom · 03-13-2009, 10:33 AM

Same opinion here, under each cctld section.

I would also impose a rule that disallows the use of suggestive/subjective terms in the subject. I hate topics with titles like "top/highquality/great/super/fantastic domain", to only find out that it's a crap name. We're all supposed to know what makes a good name, and we use different criteria to draw that conclusion. If a seller wants to give additional information about a domain (like why the domain could be of big value), let him put that in the post, not in the title.

Don't forget - domain has lots of potential, it normally means no traffic

Agreed, I think Edwin put it very well indeed, nice & simple without getting overly junky.

zapdaddy · 03-14-2009, 04:28 AM

Under each cctld section.
Much easier to navigate and find the country you want.

Agree 100%

I also think we need a rule: no comments in sales threads (only questions about traffic/stats permitted).

Alfredo · 03-15-2009, 10:22 AM

One buy/sell/trade forum for all cc is a chaos. A single buy/sell/trade forum for each cc is the best option.

Viator · 03-15-2009, 02:52 PM

People should definitely not be posting offers all over the place - for me, this decreases the interest of this forum.

A buy-and-sell section for each TLD makes sense. And offers posted elsewhere should not be allowed (and removed).

DotUs · 03-15-2009, 02:58 PM

Have to agree,

Seperate buy/sell sub forum, under each main CC forum would be the best idea,

i think most of us stick to a small amount of extensions and would be good to go straight to there actual forum, instead of (when it gets busy) going through to find 1 deal/offer out of 10,100, or 500 posts to see whats what.

I also think it would be a smart idea, to create a world map, with clicky links to each country code.

Gintoni · 03-15-2009, 04:06 PM

I would say too it will be interesting to have the sale/buy forum under each ccTld. It make it faster to find what we are looking for.

I agree with Alfredo.Only one buy/sale forum its a madness. And it is increasing of threads without big interest.

Rick Latona · 03-15-2009, 04:49 PM

The people have spoken. We will create separate forums this week and reorganize the threads.

Should make it easier for those just investing/buying 1 cctld at this time.

nice move.

Pichichi · 03-15-2009, 08:07 PM

my vote goes also for a thread under each cctld forum

bemarnet · 03-15-2009, 11:06 PM

Under each ccTLD would be great.

Also for Registering Domains it would be great to have a thread under each ccTld with the best registrars and their prices.

Daniel Dryzek · 03-17-2009, 07:14 AM

Section "Domains for Sale" is now added to each ccTLD subforum.

But can I post there offers to buy domains as well? For example I would like to buy finance or two letters .pl domain names - where should I post my message?

DD

chandan · 03-17-2009, 11:16 AM

Have seperate auction, fixed price and make offer forums voted

but its good for all cctld in general we can have auction , fixed price , make offer

not for entire each cctld forums

oldtimer · 03-22-2009, 03:45 PM

I like the way that each ccTLD has its own sales forum, it would be great if they could have their own appraisal forum too. IMO

Brands-and-Jingles · 04-12-2009, 01:45 AM

I would go with Sedo style platform, or the one used by funk.me
