I’m not sure how Namejet and Godaddy are supposed to win. On one hand you have a bunch of people that as sellers are mad that their names are treated differently than expired names. They want their names to slide into the expired list because a name is a name. The source of the name has no determination on value.
Then you have the buyers that get upset if all the names aren’t divided by private or expiry. Because they feel that a private name comes with baggage. That the seller probably pimped the hell out of the name and its not a virgin name that accidentally got dropped. When Namejet used to treat them the same they were highly criticized for not labeling them as private.
My opinion is a name is a name. People give domain investors too much credit. 95% of the names are simply put up with a landing page and the wait begins. The fact that it didn’t sell doesn’t mean that the buyer won’t come out for the next person. I’ve personally picked up names at Namejet from a private owner and it sold in a month. Just got lucky. I really just don’t care. I either like the name for the name or I don’t. As a seller I don’t want the stigma mentioned above to be on my name. I want you to see it for the name it is. My names are always fresh and ready to sell because as I said, I am a lazy domain investor that puts up a lander and waits.
Overall it doesn’t really matter to me. I get top dollar because I have the ability to make sure that domain investors see the name by putting it here. I also know that a good name will be found and a bad name will lurk with the tens of thousands of bad names. All a name needs is one bid and the crowd will find it. That being said I’ve only auctioned two names in two years so its not like I’m taking advantage of doing this daily list.
What does everyone else think about how private names should be treated at Namejet or Godaddy? Here are today’s names. Make sure to click on the names to see the current price and to help DSAD keep on keeping on.

We really do give domainers too much credit. Good point. Not knowing whether it’s accidentally dropped or actively selling doesn’t change the domain.
It matters because of budget. Like when you were deciding what 3 letter to bid on. If you have $1000 to bid with today but your not sure you’ll get the name even if you win then it’s a tough road. I don’t care if it’s private or dropped but I don’t want them to be able to renew after I win the auction
that is true – the renewal thing does matter
Godaddy could “win” by letting domain owners opt-in to a program letting the domain owners get 80% of the sales revenue from letting their domains expire and auction off on Godaddy Auctions.
The problem is that Godaddy would lose 80% of what they are getting. If this happens I hope I know in advance so I can buy puts on the stock
That’s why it should be an opt-in program.. it’s not be default, and GD could enact some other criteria like only provide the opt-in ability to people with 100+ domains or whatever criteria they want. So domainers will actually let names expire on purpose (that they would have otherwise renewed), and Godaddy’s revenue/profits will go up. Win win.
