Ask HN: Reputable Domain Marketplace?

4 pointsby wdrwover 2 years ago
Over many years of various side projects / entrepreneurial experiments, I've accumulated a bunch of domain names. I am still paying for them, mostly out of inertia. Some of them are pretty good names, but it's clear by now that I'm not going to use them. Is there a reputable domain aftermarket / marketplace that people can recommend to list these for sale?

Great question. You and I sound alike in this respect. I created a quick-and-dirty marketplace for my own portfolio (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;clearance.domains" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;clearance.domains</a>) but it does not get much traffic. I have also tried these:<p>- Dan.com (now part of GoDaddy)<p>- NameLiquidate.com (part of Epik)<p>- Sedo.com<p>- Have converted a few to stand-alone, no-maintenance sites using newsy.co (if you are open to referral links: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.newsy.co?r=newsyco-1000" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.newsy.co?r=newsyco-1000</a>) and really dig it. But sadly, I&#x27;m pretty much convinced that trying to build any meaningful revenue solely from PPC ads is no longer a viable model.<p>If you find something that works for you, please let us know here.

I used godaddy.com and sav.com in the past. Both worked pretty okay. Domains were couple of hundred each, I don&#x27;t have any experience with _really good names_. YMMV.

I’d be curious about this as well. What domains are you looking to list?
