Does anyone know what the criteria is for you to be put on the front page of DomainLore (without having any bids)?

Reason I ask is because a few have gone up there of late. Incidentally all by the same owner (Freeze Media). My question is, are his domains THAT premium - or is it more likely that FM and DL are pals?

Cheers

When submitted a domain for auction, if you add a ! to the start of the domain, it will be sent for review by Denys for 'spotlight'. Cannot speak for Denys, but generally if a domain has an almost certain chance of selling (such as LLL's etc), it will be accepted for spotlight, as there is little point DL taking £5 from you only to have to reimburse it.

So for example Freeze had expression submitted as 'spotlight'. It was always going to sell, and fetched £622 in the end.
 
thanks ian - knew about the ! bit but always forget to do it....

always find it 'suspect' ;) when the same person is on the front page with no bids... (and not with LLLs of course...


622 for spotlight is a great price... I wonder what the buyer / bidder profile is on DL ...is it just us lot, or marketing / digital agencies - have end users even heard about DL?

They don't seem to market the site much....(and yet always busy)...
 
If some people consistently put better names on DL, why shouldn't they be in the spotlight more?

On the whole, Denys' decisions on what is deemed 'spotlight' do result in sales; rarely do you see a spotlight auction finish without a bid, so on the basis that spotlight equals 'will sell', then he gets it right 99% of the time.

As for Domainlore as a marketing tool, I don't think it was ever Denys intention to promote as an end-user service; it was a means of allowing domain investors to trade domains, which it does very well.

End-users seem rare visitors/biddres and suspect in the majority of cases only when prompted in outbound promotion by the seller. I had a ~£9k end-user sale on there; I believe the second highest sale in DL history.
 
The seller wasn't Frank, just someone having a bit of fun with their DL nickname :)
 
Ok, so you've all just shown me up :D, but regardless, was a strong sale I'm very proud of. Some cracking domains on that list.

You probably have all of these, but I also seem to have an RSS going back to 2016 if that helps at all?
