Answer 1

Sales options:
1. Simple transfer of rights (issues of finding a buyer and prices are resolved independently).
2. Directed transfer of a domain - similar, but the intermediary acts as a guarantor of the transaction (for example, a rucenter). The service is paid.
3. Auction.
4. Sales agent (for a fee).
Most sales are at auctions, of which there are many.
Of our more or less adequate ones:
Auction of Rucenter , Forum searchengines , Telderi , Webnames , RuskyHost
Foreign (although with the RU domain - it is doubtful): Sedo , Afternic
Of the automatic evaluation tools, perhaps Okej , Mysitecost, cy-pr are not the worst, but you shouldn't rely too much on slot machines, determine the price intuitively based on "similar" offers at auctions and looking at sales statistics. Alternatively, request a free estimate on the searchengines forum (above), Domenforum , or find a paid estimate/sales service - both on these forums and just by searching

Answer 2

Many factors influence the cost.
If we discard memorability/intuitiveness and act based only on the indicators of the likes, PR, external links, presence in directories, etc., then it is worth looking at the estimated cost on cy-pr.com

Answer 3

Analyze the cost of other domain names that are for sale. Often, contacts are written on these domains to contact the seller, ask how much it costs, of course, the domains should be similar to yours. After 10-20 of these answers, you will be able to evaluate your domain name.

Answer 4

Last year, the agency where I work sold instant.ly - the domain did not even resolve then. Found by whois email.
If you have time, wait on your client.
Provide good parking. It should be simple and clear and convenient for the client to write to you.

Answer 5

The best way to sell a domain is to place information about its sale on specialized sites, such as: auction.nic.ru
At the same time, you can ask the price of domains similar to yours.
