When making a purchase, you’re more likely to buy from someone you trust. This trust is a critical factor, which is why clear communication is essential to boost your credibility as a seller. Our marketplace enhances that credibility and helps establish trust.
We envision a more transparent and open domain industry, fostering a more active market for unused domains.
What we do
At PkDomains.com, we focus on trust through transparency between buyers and sellers. Our platform is designed to make both parties feel comfortable and confident throughout the transaction process.
Additionally, our team continuously monitors activity on the marketplace to ensure buyers and sellers are well-informed. We’re committed to improving the experience for everyone by enhancing usability and clarity across the entire process.
What you can do
As a seller, you can build trust by offering detailed, transparent information. Make sure potential buyers can clearly see who you are and learn more about your background. A transparent negotiation process leads to more successful transactions. Here are several ways you can improve your profile and boost your credibility:
Seller profile
Your seller profile is your domain storefront. It’s the first-place buyers will visit to learn more about you, so it’s essential to make a great first impression. Share personal details in your profile bio to give buyers a sense of who you are. You can read more about how to craft a strong bio below.
Real name
Transparency is key to building trust, which is why we encourage you to use your real name or business name in your profile. Domains listed by sellers using real names generally receive more offers than those with anonymous or fake names. A real name also encourages personal interaction, which helps establish trust. Anonymity often leads to confusion and distrust.
Biography
Let buyers know who you are! Where do you live? What’s your profession? Are you a business seller, and what does your company do? What is your mission or tagline? Sharing this information builds transparency and helps potential buyers feel more comfortable. You can update your bio from your Seller dashboard.
Profile picture or business logo
Make your profile more trustworthy by adding a profile picture. You likely already have a photo on LinkedIn or Facebook that you can use. Buyers appreciate knowing who they’re dealing with, and adding a picture humanizes the transaction. If you’re representing a business, consider adding your company logo to further establish credibility.
Pricing
Setting the right price is crucial. If a first-time buyer isn’t sure how much to offer, they might simply move on to another domain. It’s important to clearly state your price to avoid losing potential buyers.
Building Relationships
Don’t just throw numbers at your buyers—engage in conversation! The best negotiations involve building a relationship with the buyer. Take the time to respond thoughtfully rather than just focusing on figures. Here are a few tips for effective communication:
- Thank the buyer for their offer.
- Explain why the domain is valuable.
- Share monthly type-in traffic, domain age, previous development history, and any relevant rankings (Google, Alexa, etc.).
- Respond quickly!
Response Time
Timeliness is crucial. Buyers appreciate quick responses and are more likely to continue negotiations if you respond promptly. A fast response helps maintain the buyer’s interest and prevents them from shifting to another domain. Take the time to clarify details and offer transparency in the transaction process. This approach, facilitated by our platform at PkDomains.com, will help increase your sales success.
