Domain Name Sales<\/strong> has announced that they are merging their team with Uniregistry Market<\/strong>, forming Uniregistry.com Brokerage.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The restructuring might seem internal, but it’s yet another indication that Frank Schilling<\/strong>‘s foundation is placing its full support behind the new Uniregistry Market brand that launched not too long ago.<\/p>\n

By default, I self-broker my domains, but I have on numerous occasions used the DNS brokerage services, with great results.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

With the transition of DNS brokerage into the Uniregistry.com Brokerage, it seems that certain processes will be streamlined in a much more efficient manner.<\/p>\n

Let’s face it: every business wants to make money, and nothing is free. Even when it appears to be free, the exchange involves the sharing of data, in hopes of an assigned, commission-funded transaction.<\/p>\n

So is the 15% brokerage fee at Domain Name Sales, and now Uniregistry.com Brokerage<\/strong> worth it?<\/p>\n

Recently, I had to deal with some very colorful buyers, that outright attempted to harass, provoke and intimidate me via their DNS inquiries.<\/p>\n

I’m a nice guy, and I’ve learned over the years that when the other party goes ballistic, they are the ones with the problem. Still, it’s not pleasant to hear a bunch of bullshit on any given day, from strangers that have no manners, no patience, and no class.<\/p>\n

I think that paying the brokerage fee offers great peace of mind in cases when it’s uncertain where it all heads to. The Uniregistry folks are prepared to stomach a lot of these responses on my behalf, and I can spend more time doing something constructive without the stress I’d get from other people’s keyboard bravado.<\/p>\n

No process is perfect, and as far as I’m concerned, Domain Name Sales never proclaimed to be the ultimate, glitch-free solution.<\/p>\n

But having provided a lot of feedback to them and being able to test-drive the Uniregistry Market, I’m confident that the new merger will provide domain investors with the ability to sell more domains, with less trouble.<\/p>\n

Hopefully, at higher selling prices that would offset the 15% commission fee by far.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
