When I began my journey as a domain investor, it was fun checking out domains via the InterNic WHOIS tool, and almost 75% of the time, these queries resulted in domain availability. More than 20 years later, good luck with that.<\/p>\n<p>The holiday season is time for introspection, and it&#8217;s the right time to <em>reprice<\/em> your domain names. Assuming you went through the <a href=\"https:\/\/acro.net\/blog\/weed-and-feed-your-domains\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>weed and feed<\/strong><\/a> process earlier on, it&#8217;s time to<strong> jack up the prices.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s right.<\/p>\n<p>Repricing means <em>increasing<\/em> the asking price, not offering discounts. Lowering your prices at the end of the year means that you are devaluing your inventory as the year ends, hoping for some random business to bite on a discounted sale. That&#8217;s not happening.<\/p>\n<p>Businesses spend most of their money at the beginning of the fiscal year, being less active in the middle and at the end. There are exceptions, of course: if you allow your prices to hit rock bottom, you just might get a sale. Congratulations, you&#8217;ve just left a ton of money on the table!<\/p>\n<p>So no, holidays is when you give your domain portfolio a makeover, retaining or increasing the price of domains &#8211; or the terms that you&#8217;re willing to sell them at. You can renegotiate old inquiries, and offer payment plans, or a bulk deal, even hint that prices are going up. The buyer might <a href=\"https:\/\/acro.net\/blog\/relentlessness-a-chief-characteristic-of-the-uniregistry-brokers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>end up paying way much more<\/strong><\/a> once the year changes.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy the holidays, and may you be healthy, prosperous, and successful.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5926 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/acro.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/happy-holidays-2019.jpg\" alt=\"Photo by Charlotte Coneybeer on Unsplash\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1412\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acro.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/happy-holidays-2019.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/acro.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/happy-holidays-2019-218x300.jpg 218w, https:\/\/acro.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/happy-holidays-2019-743x1024.jpg 743w, https:\/\/acro.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/happy-holidays-2019-768x1059.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy holidays. &#8216;Tis the season to be jolly, and while you allow the spirit of Christmas empower you, it&#8217;s your own initiative that will carry you into the new year, 2020.
