Lots of names are getting sold on a daily basis and selling for large amounts also. The market for this line of business is very big with even the large banks buying up domains as investments, now is a really good time to try and sell domain names.
So how does one start doing this? There is a lot of way to do this; you could of course contact people or businesses which might be interested. This is all well and good but it can be hard to get your email to the right person in that business direct and 9 times out of 10 you are wasting your time doing this, this could be due to the wrong person got your email, the way you worded the email. I my self have being selling domain names for over 10 years now and whilst I have had some success selling direct to companies the best method I have found is to use a company to broker or sell the domain name for you on your behalf, they take a small commission but it cuts out so much work for yourself and they handle the complete transaction if anything goes wrong.
Finding a company to do this for you is easy as there are thousands of sites on the web offering these services? I personally use one company, you can find a link them in this article.
Why do I use them? Well they actively find buyers for you; they also carry out the transaction on your behalf, so they would manage the payments for both parties and also carry out the transfer of the domain name to the new buyer. This gives me peace of mind. The best bit also is they will get the best price for your domain name and negotiate with an optional buyer.
Make sure you use a company that only charges you 10% of the sale price.
I hope this gives you a good insight into how to sell domain names.
