Afternic

If you have tried to sell a GoDaddy domain, you may already be familiar with AfterNic.com. But the domain marketplace should not be considered an extension of GoDaddy. This marketplace has its own identity and way of doing things. But like GoDaddy, it takes the confusion out of getting the most from your domain. If you want to sell a domain without any effort, it’s hard to beat AfterNic.

But you have plenty of choices out there when it comes to buying and selling domains as well. Many of them are just as good as the next marketplace. So, what the fuck makes AfterNic stand out from the rest of the crowd? It turns out plenty.

Domain buying and selling, simplified

Buying or selling a domain name can feel like a complicated process. It can also feel downright scary if you’re sitting and thinking about it. Whether you are only paying a few bucks or you want to purchase a domain name that costs five+ figures, the process can be intimidating. It’s like any new kind of important purchase. Fortunately, AfterNic takes the guesswork out of the entire process, so it never feels daunting.

That’s one of the things that stood out to me about AfterNic. Domain buying and selling is easy as fuck, and in a few simple steps, you will be on your way to buying a brand-new domain or selling your current domain to one of the many buyers that are exploring AfterNic looking for a domain just like yours. Even the site design will put you at ease, and make you feel like AfterNic is trustworthy. They make it so easy to browse new listings and premium domains alike, allowing you to see some of the hottest domains that are currently available.

As you will see, some of these domains are insanely pricey as well. I noticed that just on the premium domains that were newly available, some of them were over $15,000! That’s a pretty big baller amount, but there is more where that fucking came from! There are some insanely high-cost domains here. If you are looking for domains that are easy to remember and can give you that ranking you desperately want, one of the top premium domains on AfterNic can deliver exactly what you have in mind.

One of the things that jumped out at me was how simple it was to purchase low-cost domains as well. That seemed to be the majority of most of the domain costs on AfterNic, as many of them appeared to be pretty damn affordable. Even browsing the newest domains listed, I could tell that most of them only cost a few hundred dollars at the most. That may sound like a tall order, but consider that many of the domains have .com extensions that are also pretty damn easy to remember.

I even found domains that sound pretty fucking adult in nature, such as girlfriendsfilms.com and xploitedteens.com. That’s even when browsing the newest section as well. There are also all kinds of realty domains, sketchy domains that sound like MLM scams, and so much more. It’s interesting looking at the domains that are available and imagining how the fuck they were created in the first place, why they are for sale, and what they are eventually going to become. Seriously, who the hell is going to buy a domain name called votekickey.com anyway?

Easy to search for a domain

When you want to search for a domain name by keyword, all you have to do is first type the keyword of your choice in the keyword search field under the ‘I’d like to buy domains’ heading. Choose your extension of choice – from .com to .wtf and everything in between – and click that giant green search button. Once you do, you will see all of the available domains.

I searched for domains that matched the keyword ‘anus’ and also had a matching ‘.com’ extension. I actually managed to find plenty of websites that matched my query, right down to the high-authority domain name ‘anusblog.com.’ It’s selling for nearly $1500 and with a name like that, who can pass up on a deal like that? Oh, you can? Well, fucking excuse me!

Get the name you want on autopilot

While getting the domain name of your choice is not as seamless and easy as it sounds, if you would rather save time and allow AfterNic’s finest to do the heavy lifting for you, that is an option you can take. You can actually hire an agent to find and ultimately negotiate a domain name that matches the kind of domain name you are looking for. You have to pay $69 for the first domain and $49 for every additional domain.

Keep in mind that this is the step that people should take when they know what domain they want to purchase. If you know exactly the domain name address that you wish to purchase, all you have to do is put the address name in the field under the ‘Hire an Agent for:’ heading. Underneath that is also the option for hiring an agent to purchase a second domain name as well. Once you are ready to hire someone, click ‘continue’ and an agent will take care of the rest.

Now, what does hiring an agent actually do for you? Instead of reaching out to domain sellers and negotiating with them on your own time, AfterNic can do the work for you. They will negotiate on your behalf so that you come away with the best price on the domain name of your dreams, ensuring you that you don’t pay above what the domain name is worth.

AfterNic’s agents do this by providing free domain appraisals in addition to negotiating the best price for your new domain name. This ensures you that brokers will only agree to purchase the domain name on your behalf at a fair price. Whether you don’t have time to negotiate a domain name or you fucking suck at doing that kind of thing in the first place, the agents at AfterNic will do the hard work for you, so you don’t have to deal with it on your own.

I have to applaud AfterNic for providing this kind of service. They could have easily have forced interested parties to deal with all of this shit on their own, but they actually do not fucking have to, which I think is amazing. Do yourself a favor and consider hiring an agent if you can fit it into your budget. It will make your life much easier, and it’s always nice to have a professional hustling and negotiating for you!

Park your unused domain and earn revenue

AfterNic is awesome for those who want to buy an adult domain name. However, what about those who want to sell? If you decide to sell your domain name on AfterNic, you will want to become familiar with parking. Parking your domain name idles it, meaning that no one can browse or use the site to begin with. It’s just there, and it’s unusable.

You may be wondering what the fuck is the point of this to begin with. Well, when your domain name is parked, it will sit idle and show people how to contact AfterNic to purchase your domain. Advertising will then be placed on your site, and anytime someone clicks on an ad after visiting your site, you earn some ad revenue! It acts as a way for AfterNic to advertise its brand, you get some cool revenue in the process, and the person learns the best way to reach out and purchase your domain name to begin with. It could not be easier or more convenient to show that your domain name is for sale, and it’s a good way to earn a little cash on the side.

Barely any information about domains

One of the things that annoyed me the most while looking for domain names on AfterNic was that there was barely any info about the domain in question. When I clicked on a domain name, all I found were the categories and a phone number that allows you to call and learn more about the domain name. None of the information that you will hear about on the phone is even on the domain name’s page, and I have no idea why the fuck that is the case.

It should be more convenient to learn about a domain name. The fact that you have to call, tells me that not all of the information that is relevant and that it should be listed on the domain’s page to begin with. That’s unfortunate, and if it is possible to list the information instead of hiding it behind phone lines, it should be listed on AfterNic.

Suggestions:

Whether you are trying to buy a domain name or sell an adult domain name to the highest buyer, AfterNic proves that they are one of the better domain buying and selling platforms out there. With over 20 years of experience, you can be assured that they know what they are doing. It just would have been convenient had there been more information about domains. Without it, you have to call and inquire about certain pieces of information regarding a domain name, and that’s a real pain in the ass.
