The domain name category on Ebay is flooded with thousands of listings containing worthless domains. Many of these listings use misleading titles which makes it very day consuming for buyers to find worthwile domains in the Ebay marketplace. There are quality domain names listed on Ebay but how is a domain buyer supposed to find them easily amongst all that other rubbish?
Sorting the auction listings in order of bids received would be a big help but Ebay doesn’t currently supply a way to do that. How about sorting in decending price order? that option usually results in countless pages of by hyped domains with ridiculous starting prices. Anybody interested in SantaClausNorthPole.com (the most famous address on Earth) for $1,346,269? I didn’t think so.
Domain buyers are forced to go through page after page of crappy listings hoping to come across the small minority of auctions that actually contain quality domain names. Wouldn’t it be nice whether there was a way to quickly locate those one-word dictionary .com’s? How about the valuable 3 letter .com’s and the recently popular 4 letter .com’s which are frequently sold in bulk on Ebay?
I figured out a way to isolate these types of listings using a script I recently purchased for site development. I setup the parameters so that only domain auctions that have reached $100 with a minimum of 3 bids will be displayed. It does a very good job of isolating “What’s Hot” in the Ebay domain category. It plus updates automatically as the domain listings on Ebay change.
I plan on leaving it up so I inspire you to bookmark that page whether you ever want to get a quick snapshot of “What’s Hot” on Ebay in the Domain Name category.
