Comparing the Online Auction Services - Domaining for Amateurs: The True Story of Selling a Domain Name

Comparing the Online Auction Services

According to Zetetic's December 2005 data, Sedo had the highest average sale price of the major online exchanges, where the average sale was for about $2,558, followed by Afternic at $1,072 and GoDaddy was at $692.  The anecdotal evidence also seems to say that though GoDaddy is getting good volume, it doesn't seem appropriate marketplace for premium-type domains.

This Domains Magazine article about Selling Domains: Domain Aftermarkets is a nice summary of the fees and procedures at the two other major exchanges, Afternic & Sedo.  In our case, the difference in fees weren't particularly significant, since we were hoping to sell the domain for quite a bit more than $100.

Domain Rookie, who despite his name appears to have a relatively substantial portfolio, has the following post listing where he is selling his names.
