Happy Sunday. The other day I thanked Francois for his efforts and creation of Domaining.com and today I’d like to acknowledge another company that I think people take for granted. Escrow.com We have all used Escrow.com continually over the years and has so many successful transactions that we have forgotten how crucial it is to our success. It is so well known that our buyers have no problems or questions as to the security and safety. It’s gotten to the point that if a buyer asks to use someone else you question their legitimacy. We bloggers had many opportunities to take advertising payments from a lot of different escrow companies and many did. Escrow is one of the longest and biggest supporter of domain sites. But ask the bloggers who they use when they actually buy or sell domains and I bet they are going to say escrow.com. They are one of the few that are legal in every state including California and Texas which have extra stringent laws when it comes to escrow. In short, thank you Escrow.com for letting me concentrate on the buy and the sell, not on worrying about getting my money. And for disclosure, yes Escrow is THE sponsor of this list each day, that’s a completely different reason why I am grateful to Brandon Abbey and Escrow.com . Here are today’s names
GardenAngels.com Angels are one of our best selling statues for the garden. But of course there are other uses for the name as well. i.e. anything that helps in the garden
MyFitClub.com 15 years old. Not a bad fitness name for under $50
HomePrices.org No bidders. I think it works perfectly for a home price website. Makes it sound official. Most of the home pricing websites should use .org anyway since they don’t make money
TheCouponStore.com One bid. Buildout a quick site and flip
2268.net Haven’t seen many NNNN.nets at auction lately. This one reminds you they still have good value
4804.net Even the flanked by fours varieties
HKHD.com Hong Kong High Def
MLD.cc The LLL.cc are starting to break though the $1K mark. (only a special few, many are worth $15)
DDXH.com As opposed to LLLL.coms like this one that break it every day
RuralTV.org 3.9K backlinks and thousands of visitors per month.
PlayGamesInstantly.com Because I don’t want to wait 5 minutes to get my game on
MHWX.com My Hair Wax. Doing well . The domain, not my waxing.
GJNW.com I like these types of LLLL.com because they are appealing to the Chinese but the end letter works well in English as well for Worldwide
TacoPalace.com Only one bidder. There are A LOT of Taco Palaces across the US
VERIFIED GODADDY COUPON CODE: $1.99 New Registration Godaddy STATE
3WE.com Fun to say and is a no reserve name
Nevu.com Already 31 bids on this CVCV.com
MAJ.com Great name. All comes down to the reserve
Foxo.com Somebody shoot this name and take it out of its misery. There has to be a rule about auctioning a name more than 100 times
SEDO’s Live Auctions Going on Now
TheDomainGroup.com Already sounds legitimate. And its 19 years old
SportsLocker.com The plural sports is the kicker here. Going to lose traffic to sportlocker but still a solid name
SecretPlans.com More of a website or project name than a business but at the right price a good pickup
GoodRiver.com The kind of two word combo that people name their company. No bids
XGTR.com Deserves more than the 12 bids it has. Good Chinese LLLL.com
90402.com Zip for Santa Monica CA. And less than 30 bidders at press time?
TheWreckers.com Actually one of my favorite country groups. Unfortunately they’ve broken up and moved on. Michele Branch and Jessica Harp. Tennessee is one of my favorite songs of all time
Verses.com At first I was thinking a typo of versus but then I saw all the bidders and realized its like verses of songs. I feel a little silly but I also know I’ve missed easier things
CorporateReputation.com Great name and one of the most important things a business can build. All you have to do is manage all the people trying to ruin it from behind a keyboard
OL.UK I think all LL.uk are probably a pretty good long term investment
Have a name at auction and need more exposure? Send me an email. We may be able to help. If you have an auction you want to promote, email us for details.*All names chosen by me, Shane . (ie you click through and purchase a name you like) or an occasional paid listing. Everything I say is based on my own research or is opinion. Do your own due diligence. That means look it up yourself if you don’t think the stats or my opinion is corrects
I love The Wreckers (music group) also.
