Hi all,
OK I try to resume why and for what I set up the Ebay store:
1) Get rid quickly of some unwnated domains (via auction)
2) Get exposure for the rest of my names for sale (as "buy now"/"make offer" option)
3) Get exposure for my reseller
www.TargetDomain.com
A basic Ebay shop is 9$ a month, and a shop listing is 0.04 cents incl. subtitle each 30 days. So not that expensive concerning the return i get.
Listings are easyly uploaded via "Turbo Lister", so there is no real hassle.
OK, no something regarding Ebay domain auctions:
a) Its difficult to get ppl to bid (exept the snipers at auction end)
b) It's difficult to make ppl find you (also SE indexing is quite well for Ebay shops)
So some golden rules if you wanna make some money on domain auctions:
Promote your auction outsite Ebay.
- Try adwords (depending on the domain, some keywords are dirt cheap)
- Try direct marketing
- Forums etc....
Within Ebay:
- Listing a domain outside the domains categoy (as 2nd) give sometimes good results (Of course category should fit the domain meaning).
If you have a real premium domain, and want top sell it via Ebay make shure to set a reserve price ;)
OK, and here is my secret domain reseller TIP if you need exposure, revenue, content, SE links, etc....
