Ask HN: How do you sell a domain?

8 pointsby emilepetroneover 14 years ago
I own an international domain for a top 50 website- so quite simply, how do I sell it to them?

One strategy can be to find a buyer through a domain broker like sedo and see what they offer (so that you have a benchmark for how much someone else is willing to pay). You can probably ask them for 2x as much money for it and they can do it. I believe you would have to pitch their marketing department in order for them to purchase it, so find the person through LinkedIn.<p>Also, be very sensitive to the trademark issue, sometimes big companies can go after you for having a domain with their name and might to pursue you to sell it to them for very cheap as it could be viewed as trademark infringement since you simply own a domain.

Hello there,<p>I would also create a landing page for that domain name mentioning that it is for sale. You could then redirect them to your sedo listing or you could place a simple contact form for them to contact you.<p>Good luck!<p>Karl

Do you mean; for instance, they have a .co.uk and you have the .eu/.com?

Sedo is good. I bought <a href="http://ronnie.me" rel="nofollow">http://ronnie.me</a> through sedo.<p>I'll probably list <a href="http://south.by" rel="nofollow">http://south.by</a> there.
