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.

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?
