Your domain name is your brand. One word .Com sales continue to grow in 2018 and in 2019 already with two reported sales breaking seven figures this year Chocolate.com and California.com. Below is a list of the top 20 one word .Com sales that were reported last year. This is just a small sampling of transactions that are happening, most high profile domain sales remain under NDA.
In 2018 Ice.com was the top sale, an acquisition by the Intercontinental Exchange. Several crypto and cannabis related sales trending along with body, comfort and positive brand domains. Almost all of the names on in the top 20 sales from last year are in use which is a strong indicator for the demand based on results for one word .Coms. Industry experts for the most part all agree that the best scarce, short and descriptive .Coms are still undervalued and are great investments.
Digital assets such as premium domains are perhaps the most important investment a business organization or individual can make. Some interesting testimonials to that can be found here, here and here. Also recommend this article by Alan Dunn that highlights 100 more companies that get domains.

Hi Insiders!
As part of our service, we run a weekly newsletter that goes out to 2000 targeted and active domain buyers. There are not only domain investors subscribed to our mailer but many digital marketers and entrepreneurs as well. We are seeking quality and aggressively priced inventory to run in our weekly newsletter. While we do offer premium domain brokerage and sell top names for retail prices, that is not what we are calling for in this post.
Types of names we are looking to market via newsletter brokerage:
Short .coms priced to sell: three letter (LLL), pronounceable or western premium four letter (LLLL) and in some cases brandable 5-6 letter .coms
One word domains: .COM preferred but we will consider one words in .ORG/NET/IO as well. If you have a really good ngTLD that does not have premium renewal and is priced aggressively you can send that as well. Please do not send long lists of non .com domains.
Exceptional Two Word .COMs - We're looking for two words with high search volume, CPC and/or exceptional brandability. We will also consider niche .com portfolios (ie..cannabis, blockchain, gambling, etc)
Inventory you send in should ideally be priced between $2k - $25k depending on quality. Please send domains that are priced. You must own the names be willing to let us market them for at least a month.
** Submit domains with best possibly pricing! Our newsletter is a great way to sell your liquid assets for fair prices but we are not looking for retail priced submissions here **

For those who own domains or want to own domains, there are certain levels of selling that need to be recognized depending on your domain investing strategy.
There are three places to sell your domain:
General Marketplaces (Eg. NamePros, Ebay)
Domain marketplace websites (Eg. Flippa.com and Sedo.com)
Private Inquiries (You wait for people to make offers on your domains or you actively seek out buyers)
The value of your domain and the amount you want for your domain should determine what place to sell your domain. This is because there are three different kinds of buyers that you deal with when trying to sell your domain:
Resellers are the people, like qeip, who wish to buy domains at the lowest price possible so that they can make a profit on them immediately. The only place that we might encounter these buyers are in public auction sites and such but we don’t want to sell to these people because they hinder our earnings potential even if we could make a profit off of them.
Investors are the people who pay a premium for a domain just to have it as investment which they believe will gain in value in the future and they can sell it. Investors are our target audience because they are all of all of the venues that we sell on and they can get us large profit margins.
End users are the companies, entrepreneurs, and people that want to buy a domain to develop it into a full-fledged website or want it as a redirect for branding purposes. End users are our target audience because they have generous budgets and they are willing to pay tens of thousands or more to obtain the domain they want without any questions or persuasion necessary.
What you have to understand is that Marketplaces (eg. Ebay) are filled with resellers who won't give you much for your domain because they want to make a quick profit off of it. Domain Marketplaces (Eg. Flippa) are mostly resellers with a few investors. Then you get to Private Inquiries which almost always consistent of end users with a couple investors.
What you see is that End users can only really be found through private inquiries. End users can only really be taken advantage of through strong brokerages. When a company sees that a brokerage firm, like qeip, is representing a domain, they feel more entitled to listen than if a "domain owner" came up to them to ask them to buy said domain. Qeip takes advantage of this fact with our brokerage services which focus on a four step process:
1. Qeip is hired to sell a premium domain for someone.
2. Qeip makes a list of companies that in related industries which they use to make a list of business contacts in the advertising/marketing departments of these companies.
3. Qeip contacts each of these business contacts through calls and emails to announce to them that a premium domain is available .
4. Qeip gets multiple offers from different companies, which they use to start a bidding war to get the domain the highest price.
This process in addition to our extremely low commission prices is why domain owners choose us over the big brokers. If you want to learn even more about our brokerage services, please go to the link below:
There is literally an unlimited amount of domains in existence so how can one tell the different between one that is valuable and one that is worthless? The short answer is scarcity and the amount that the buyer wants that particular domain.
The long answer for the value of domain is that it is determined by a number of factors:
Google Keyword searches - The amount of times that people search for a certain keyword that is within a domain can be a great determiner of its value. An domain such as DomainName.com has around 300,000 searches a month and is therefore a very good investment. These searches are so valuable for companies because each of those searches has a good chance of getting a customer to the domain's website it shares a keyword with. These keyword searches normally have to be bought from Google Adwords by the companies so owning a domain with a lot of keyword searches can save them a lot of money.
Length - The length of a domain is one of the number one ways to immediately determine a domains value. Just looking at a domain, one can tell its worth based on whether it has 2, 3,4, or 5 letters. Each number of letters has its own resellers value, market value and end user value. Short number domains like 1111.com sell for tens of thousands and have been gainly value aggressively. Length can refer to number of letters or numbers but it can also refer to number of words. A domain worth investing in should have only one or two words within it.
Registration Age - Age can be a good indicator of an domain's value as older domains have more money invested to keep them renewed each year. It costs a certain amount to keep a domain each year so if someone is going to pay $20 a year for 20 years to keep a domain, then, they probably have a good reason for keeping that domain. Every premium domain is aged but not every aged domain is premium.
Extension - Nowadays, there are hundreds if not thousands of different domain extensions ranging from the classic .com,.org,.net all the way to .de,.xyz,.io and others. Most premium domains that are worth investing in are .com but a few good ones are .org or .net (like coffee.org sold for $100,000). For the rest of the hundreds of extensions, they are only usually worth something if they are one or two letters (but even then they won't sell for more than a couple thousand).
History - A domain's history can help to determine its value because domains that have previously had successful websites on them increase the domains value exponentially just for the sake of branding. In addition to that, a previous website means that there will probably be a lot of natural traffic coming to that website which makes owning that domain very profitable no matter whether you are cash parking it or trying to make a website out of it. Previous websites also bring backlinks, links to the site from other sites, for the site which makes long term traffic possible. Website history can go both ways though. If you own a domain that used to be a porn site, the domain's value decreases if you are trying to sell the domain to people who want to make a normal website out of it.
Even if you use these tools to help value your domain, you still will probably be wrong about it even though you will be close. At the end of the day, a domain is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.
Yet, qeip understands the necessity for valuations, that is why we offer free personalized domain appraisals which can be requested by submitting the form below:
Domain names have been continually appreciating in value at a higher rate than most investments. Currently, two letter .com domains that might have sold in 1995 for $10, do not sell for less than $300,000 today.
Our expert planners use our customer's capital to buy premium domain names at below market prices in order to form personal domain portfolios. After obtaining a domain portfolio from us, you have the option to deal with managing them yourself or you can utilize our team's personal registrar. With our advice you get to decide when you want to turn your domain portfolio into liquid cash. If your looking to sell, there are many options for you to see a massive return on your investments. Our team has the options to wait for 3rd party buyers to make offers, to aggressively seek out potential buyers, or to take the domains to public auction. Through all of these options, our team will get you a profit but the highest returns are found typically when 3rd party buyers make outside offers.
Each domain will gain returns anywhere from 10%-1000% based on value that domain is bought and sold for and domains will not be sold for less than they are bought. *Domains managed by qeip are securely monitored through a encrypted registrar.
The domain names that our team specializes in are 3 + 4 letter .com domains (like cef.com and pptt.com) along with generic 1 + 2 word .com domains (like During.com and WebTraffic.com). In general, although your portfolio's domains are not liquid (like a mutual fund might be), they can be sold for any amount, transferred instantly, and accessed anywhere. Domains offer a chance at near unlimited gain and with our expert buyers, you most always will have an portfolio that is worth much more than you purchased it for, from the second that we personally make it for you.
