Listing Domains on Marketplaces
Quick Listing with Verification
Today I’m going to be focusing on Sedo and Afternic. Listing domains is a straightforward process, though additional verification checks may be required to establish proper ownership. Be aware that it can take several hours for a listing to go live.
Commission and Pricing
If you’re unsure about the resale price of your domain, you might opt for a "Make an offer" listing on Afternic, where their commission rate is typically between 20% and 25%.
Flippa’s Selling Ease
Flippa is an alternative marketplace known for its filtering features that help buyers. It provides an easy platform for sellers as well.
Sedo: A Large Domain Marketplace
Sedo is one of the largest domain marketplaces, connecting buyers and sellers for a fee. With over 18 million domains listed on the website, it offers substantial visibility for your listings.
