Is Afternic worth joining to sell domains? Do you many more sales there than at Sedo?
 
In the past few years, I've had 35 sales at Sedo vs. only 3 at Afternic. However, the Afternic ones were some of my best sales.
 
I get a lot of offers from Afternic, than I don't get from Sedo. Definitely think it's worth the $19.95 if you have a reasonable portfolio.
 
I've sold only 6 domains on Afternic.
But it's worth the $19.95.

List your domains for sale on multiple sites.
 
sales
AN: 15%
Sedo: 55%
Others: 30%
 
Agreed with others. Afternic worth it.


I've sold more domains on Sedo but my Afternic sales were good ones.
 
Don't do it for the parking, though. When I moved domains form Sedo to Afternice for parking, revenue dropped like a brick. I made a whopping $0.50 in three months of parking with Afternic when I was making a few bucks a month with Sedo.

Afternic doesn't sponsor their own parking, and has changed parking partners numerous times. Just park directly with the parking companies, except if you can't get accepted.
 
I think Afternic is worth it, but I just changed all my domains back to basic promo from extended promo. For the extra 20% commission and having to list a BIN price, it hasn't been worth going with extended promo - the thought is your domains get more exposure but I haven't noticed a difference myself. Also, there have been a few examples lately on the forum of good xx,xxx sales from negotiating, so why list a BIN price anyway?
