Wire Auction is Now Live — Domain Name

First ever auction runs through April 27.

OK, don’t freak out. I’m not starting to compete with Latona, Sedo, Snap, etc. But I am running a one time auction on the SnapNames platform in conjunction with a number of different bloggers.

Last January I was talking with Craig Snyder of SnapNames and I stated, “Hey, why don’t we hold an auction on SnapNames with a bunch of inventory from domain bloggers?”. He liked the idea, so I ran with it. I assembled regarding 50 domain names primarily from domain bloggers, but also from a few larger portfolio holders. I think you’ll like the end result:

-Domains starting at $99 with no reserve counting 2 four letter .com’s registered in 1998, a three letter .net, and a three character .com.

-All of the domains are popular terms, and 80% of them are also registered in an “inferior” TLD (e.g. we’re selling .com, but .net or .org is registered).

-All but two domains priced under $5k, and most under $1k, meaning there’s something for every budget.

-Only regarding 50 domains, so it’s easy to sort through.

To get bidding going, I put some of my personal domains in at below what I paid for them. It’s a risk, but hopefully they’ll get bid up.

So check out the auction now. Bid early and often.
