Geo Domain/s New UK domain auction marketplace – NameBid.co.uk

[Linda]

Hi everyone,

I’ve just launched NameBid.co.uk, a new marketplace focused specifically on UK domain-name auctions.

The platform currently offers:

• Zero commission for buyers and sellers
• Ownership checks before auctions go live
• Email-verified bidding
• Clear opening prices and closing times
• Direct PayPal or bank-transfer settlement
• Registrar and Nominet transfers after payment

The first live auctions include Webmails.co.uk, NursingJob.co.uk, MotorHire.co.uk, Agentical.co.uk, GenuineIntelligence.co.uk and several other UK domains.

You can view the marketplace here:

NameBid — UK Domain Auctions

A managed marketplace for buying and selling verified .co.uk domain names.

namebid.co.uk

This is the founding launch, so I would genuinely appreciate feedback from experienced UK domain investors. I’m particularly interested in suggestions about the bidding process, auction presentation and features you would want from a UK-focused marketplace.

Thanks.

Hi Linda. Just checked out your site. I was going to DM but it appears to be unavailable.

The colour scheme makes it hard to read a lot of what's on there IE. the top banner, the domains in the listings. Appears to be white on bright green or very feint gray respectively.

Wanted to let you know how it appears, I'm assuming it may be the same for others...?

Hi Linda,

Looks nice.... initial impression. Not very clear what means what in auction box

Left hand amount=reserve ?
Middle number = bids ?
Right date = end time ?

May seem obvious, but you have to spoon feed this stuff for a first time user. If you have to work it out people will not bother.

Hope it helps.

Looks like this on my phone, top banner and menu links, can't read the text, domain names barely visible on white background :

Thanks @DomainPortfolio.uk for confirming that you're seeing the same. Seeing more from others, I think that this is cause it's taking on the setting for dark/light mode. That's vibe coding for you

OKay... looking at that screenshot, i wasnt seeing the Highest Submitted / Bids recieved / closes text. Hence my earlier message

EDIT - still not.... similar issue? white text on white
