Heading into annual high season — Domain inquiries

January and February tend to have a spike in domain name purchase inquiries.

The first two months of the year tend to be good ones for domain sales, or at least domain name inquiries.

Ryan McKegney, CEO of domain offer system DomainAgents, states that the platform has a 10% spike in offer volumes during January and February each year. Many other platforms (and sizable domainers) experience a similar bump.

Multiple factors seem to be at play.

“Firms often have fresh budgets and individuals are pursuing their Fresh Year’s resolutions,” McKegney told Reglike.

The latter seems to be a big factor for smaller domain sales of $1,000-$3,000. Many people decide to start a fresh business or “side hustle” in conjunction with the fresh year.

Whatever the reason, domain investors ought to take advantage of this by making sure their portfolio is listed for sale and all domains link to relevant “for sale” landers.
