Dynadot + Sedo + Afternic: The Triple Advantage for Domain Sellers

If you’re part of the world of domain investing, you’ve probably wondered if there’s a way to expand your reach without abandoning your current registrar. The good news is—there is, and it doesn’t require moving around your domain names. By integrating Sedo and Afternic directly with your Dynadot account, you gain access to additional marketplaces, greater visibility, and faster sales opportunities—all while managing everything in one place.

 

While our connection with Sedo and Afternic has been in place for a while, we want to make sure our users understand this powerful connection. Let’s break down how this triple-powered strategy works and why it’s a smart move for any domain investor or individual trying to get more visibility on their domain(s).

 

Understanding Domain Marketplaces

 

 

Selling domain names isn’t always as simple as listing them and waiting for offers. The competition is fierce, and even great domain names can sit unsold for months if not marketed correctly. If you’re aiming for quicker sales, one of the most effective tactics is to list across multiple platforms.

 

That’s where leveraging our connection with additional marketplaces comes into play. By combining Dynadot, Sedo, and Afternic visibility, you can significantly increase your chances of finding the right buyer, faster. The best part? You don’t have to shift your domains around to do it.

 

Before starting to apply the triple-platform strategy, let’s explore the key players:

• Dynadot – We’re known for the user-friendly platform, competitive fees, and seamless integrations. Our platform sees about 1,250,000 weekly domain search queries.

• Sedo – One of the largest global domain marketplaces with over 24 million listed domains and a strong international buyer base.

• Afternic – Offers a Premium Network that powers up to 85 million monthly domain search queries. Afternic also offers a Fast Transfer system that makes buying and selling nearly instant.

 

Each platform has its strengths, and when used together, they offer comprehensive coverage of the domain buying market.

 

Dynadot’s Selling Features

 

 

As both a registrar and marketplace, Dynadot provides you the tools to manage your entire domain portfolio efficiently. Key features include:

Sedo - Dynadot Integration

 

 

Sedo is one of the most established domain marketplaces, known for its global reach, multilingual support, and secure infrastructure. With services like appraisals, secure transactions, and broad exposure, it’s a comprehensive and trusted platform for domain investors.

 

Sedo offers extensive exposure through its SedoMLS (Multiple Listing Service) network.

Afternic’s Fast Transfer

 

 

Afternic’s large reseller network—featuring over 120 partners—makes it one of the most powerful platforms for domain sales. Its Fast Transfer feature enables eligible domains to be automatically transferred to the buyer upon sale, eliminating manual steps and speeding up transactions.

 

Eligible domains for a fast transfer are:

• COM, .CO, .NET, .ORG, .DE, .BIZ, .PW, .IO, .XYZ and .INFO domains.

• Domain names that have a price set below $100,000.

• The domain must also have been registered for at least 60 days and must not be within 30 days of expiration or under a 60-day lock.

 

By integrating Afternic with your Dynadot account, you ensure maximum exposure and a frictionless selling experience. Here’s how to set up Afternic with Dynadot.

 

The Triple-Platform Strategy

 

 

This triple-platform approach improves the odds of quick domain sales. So, how do these three platforms work together to help you sell domains faster? Here are some of the definitive advantages:

• Cross-listing: We make it possible for you to distribute your domains to the Dynadot marketplace, along with Sedo and Afternic’s without moving your domains.

• Maximum exposure: Your domain will appear across multiple marketplaces, search results, and registrar sites. That means hundreds of millions of potential buyers.

• Centralized management: Monitor and update listings across all platforms from your Dynadot control panel.

• No migration needed: Keep your domains with Dynadot while tapping into the power of Sedo and Afternic.

 

Before you begin, just note that you must have opened accounts on all three platforms. 

 

Additional Fast-Selling Techniques

To further improve your chances of success, consider these domain selling tips:

• Be responsive: Enable the “Make Offer” option and reply promptly to buyer inquiries.

• Time your promotions: Weekdays tend to get more traffic, so align promotions accordingly.

• Use social platforms: Share your listings on NamePros, Twitter, or LinkedIn to attract buyers.

• Research pricing: Analyze similar past sales to set appealing and competitive price points.

• Target your outreach: Connect with buyers in relevant industries or niches who may see the domain’s full value.

• Offer payment plans: Dynadot’s payment plan allows buyers to purchase domains priced at $100 or more through monthly installments over 2 to 12 months, starting with a 15% down payment plus the first installment, while the domain remains under a “buy lock” in the buyer’s account until fully paid.

• Explore leasing: For domain names with higher prices, there is a leasing option where the domain owner lists the domain and makes a contract with a buyer to get paid for the domain on a monthly basis.

 

Legal and Administrative Considerations

While speed is important, domain sales still need to be secure and professional. Keep the following in mind:

• Transfer processes: Some platforms offer instant transfers (like Afternic), while others may require manual steps. This can slow down transactions, and it’s important to be aware of, while also ensuring potential buyers understand the process if in direct contact.

• Secure payments: Platforms like Dynadot, Sedo, and Afternic handle payment processing to protect both buyers and sellers.

• Documentation: Keep thorough records of sales, including buyer details and invoices, for tax and legal purposes.

 

If you’re serious about domain selling and already using our platform, the good news is that you don’t need to leave your comfort zone. By connecting your portfolio to Sedo and Afternic, you unlock the full power of the global domain market—reaching millions of buyers across multiple channels without the headache of juggling separate accounts.

 

The Dynadot + Sedo + Afternic strategy is more than just multi-platform exposure—it’s a smart, efficient way to sell domains fast or to help achieve the sale price points you may be targeting.
