Hi All,

Ok...I am a newbie so please bear with me!

I know older regged domains have value for their backlinks, time on net, etc...but are recently regged domains (still under 60 day new-reg lock) just as valuable if the name is good, or should I wait until at least 2 months after regging before listing for sale.

I ask because whenever I reg a new name, I instantly think.."mmmm..like it..list it now"!!

All advice is much appreciated and thanks in advance for your time.

Keep it under your hat for a while, build a mini site, get it indexed and a bit of traffic. Then list it. (or not if it does well and earns you money)

PM me the domain if you like.

I see this mentioned a lot.

This is a UK forum, mainly for .uk domains which do NOT have any 60 day transfer embargo placed on them.

Thanks for the info. As a newbie, I didnt know that...I have only sold 1 .co.uk since I started, which was over 2 months old, and a .org (which was subject to a 60 day lock).

Thanks.

The question still stands for .coms/orgs, etc though. I assume if the name is good enough, the buyer will wait..

I had this same question. So what do you think, should you wait a few months before trying to sell a new domain name?
