Using Afternic and getting “For Sale” landers, the old fashioned way

With GoDaddy’s integration borked, here’s how to list your domains on Afternic and get GoDaddy-branded sales landers. GoDaddy’s integration with Afternic, which theoretically lets customers add domains to Afternic from within their GoDaddy account, has been in beta for over two years.

Efty teams up with Dan.com, also introducing marketplace

Efty users will be able to accept payments through Escrow.com or Dan.com. The domain name industry creates strange bedfellows. For example, you might look at Efty.com and Dan.com as competitors. Both offer landing page services to domain name investors. Yet they don’t have the same solution set, and that’s where a new partnership comes into […]

For Escrow.com, Q2 was a tale of two businesses

As domains tanked, other products filled the gap. The second quarter of 2020 was a dismal one for domain sales at Escrow.com. Volume dropped from $85.8 million in Q1 to just $55.2 million in Q2. That’s the lowest number since 2018. Covid-19 pummeled the domain aftermarket. Which is why I was initially confused when I […]
