I am thinking of using a Press Release Service to list all my Domain Names I have available for Sale on Godaddy. Do you think this is a Good Idea or Waste of money?

Hi

i think it depends on:
the quality and price of the domains, the press service used, how many people will read it-
and of those how many will know what a domain is, and out of those how many will be looking to buy one.

imo...

General press releases are almost dead these days. People keep using them for seo purposes and for raising their profile/image.

Though, if you have a specific niche domain name > then probably targeting the niche news websites would be a good idea.

All the success!!

Real press releases, like in the name it's post release. An acquistion, sale or merger, etc.,

Most serious and noteworthy press releases won't even accept a domain listing as a press release.

Have you tried Domain Marketplace(s) like ours?

The key is quality of the domain (short and memorable better), reasonably priced & the right TLD to get a faster sale.

You are making a very, very good point.

Yes, the main idea of press releases is: they have to be "newsworthy"

I should add that the major purpose of my press release

Elmore.AI Brandable Elmore AI Artificial Intelligence Domain Name Plus many Premium .Com Domain Names Registered by MickeysDomains.com Available for Purchase (Processed through Godaddy)​

is to spark interest in my Elmore.ai domain name which in my opinion is incredibly brandable. As far as the rest of my domain names, probably not, but I thought I'd give it a try for $92 or so. The Press Release comes out this week.

Do you really need a press release for it? Of course, you can do one. Still, you can use DNForum and some other domain name forums that allow advertising .com names that are for sale.

.. there is a structure to a press release that in your case probably isn't needed.

Nevertheless, it can't hurt :) So, if you have time and energy for it > do it.

All the success!
