- bluetidepro 14y agositecheckout.com seems like a solid domain that you could get some money for!

- mladenkovacevic 14y agoIdea: Domain name exchange... trade your unused domains for other ones that might be of more value to you. Like baseball cards... but for domain names Somebody go develop it now.
- noinput 14y agotruth be told thats the exact reason I held on to most of these, but with the birth of my second daughter and moving to the bay area for me it was a case of priorities. I envisioned a mobile app with some kind of a simple barter system. I'd love to be part of a project working on it and can share some ideas I had sketched out.
- kdude63 14y agoThis. This is a brilliant idea.
- mattwdelong 14y agoHow could someone monetize this?
- xutopia 14y ago5$ a pop?
- abstractbill 14y agoThere are plenty of other services you can easily sell/advertise to an audience of people who are swapping domain names.
- mladenkovacevic 14y agoHaven't given it much thought but here are a couple of ideas: 1) Users pay to list their domains. Pro: Guaranteed revenue from every user Con: Low motivation for user to pay up as there's no guarantee for reward 2) List up to 20 domains for free anything over that falls into a tiered annual payment plan Pro: same as 1 but better because of larger free user base who might be more likely to convert to a paying user Con: Could a user just keep rotating hundreds of domains through their free account? (imposing a limit on how many times a user can list and de-list domains would prevent this) 3) Users pay a flat fee only when a successful trade is made Pro: more motivation for users to pay up as the reward is imminent. Also both users can split the fee making it more affordable for each of them Con: Revenue is conditional on successful trades. Could the users use the service to simply list their domains then use outside channels to complete the actual trade/transaction? 4) User pays a fee when they want to take a domain they received through trading off of the trading block. This would require the site to actually assume ownership of all domains being traded then hold them hostage for a small fee when a trader wants to take possession of them (or else they are still up for trade/in limbo) 5) Maybe the site handles trades as well as cash purchases. Trades are free.. purchases incur a 2% fee. 6) Ads for other internet services. Perhaps the domains could be contextually paired with the ads so that if a user is searching for mma-website.com he/she sees ads for mma training equipment and facilities.

- vineet 14y agoJust an idea: How about you make it one step more interesting, if the purchaser executes certain milestones within a certain time period, the price will be free and instead equity only? (Otherwise they would need to return the domain back to you) Ideally the milestones would not be development oriented (given that you seem to be a designer).
- sidcool 14y agoYou are a noble soul.
- pawannitj 14y agoI'm too late :(
- alex_g 14y agoHope you don't mind if I list my domains for sale here: carswithsiri.com iOSpassbook.com begrizzly.com -I've got psd mockups and logos for this one suggst.it -I've got a logo with this one as well macappsdaily.com -might have some backlinks- used to be a blog send me an email- alexgrn7 @ gmail dot com if you're interested with your best offer. Thanks.
- noinput 14y agoActually this thread wasn't about selling. The reason I gave mine away here was because this community is all about doing things and shipping, not necessarily monetizing.
- corford 14y agoLove it. If anyone would like roughchart.com or tensecondreview.com hit me up. Address in profile (or reply here), first come first served. Note: domains are on Dyn so you'll have to cover the transfer fee but that's it.
