[SURVEY] Domain Selling

[timROGERS]

As many of you will know, before I start any new services or ideas, I always conduct a survey on my market to work out whether I should do it, and if yes how. Now I am thinking of starting a domain selling business, and I need opinions. Every single completed survey will get a rep! And one will receive cPanel, unlimited bandwidth, 200MB space hosting for free!

1) Would you feel confident in buying from me?
2) Would you feel more confident in buying from me if there was a control panel into which you could logon to and change your domain details?
3) Would you like to receive a letter in the mail to confirm your registration?
4) What is the cheapest price that would not seem like a scam?
5) How much would you expect to pay for the following: .com; .co.uk; .name; .net; .org.uk and .org?
6) What features would you expect from the domain seller?
7) What support methods would you expect (phone, email, online, SMS etc.)?
8) What extra services would you be happy to pay for?
9) Would you like an affiliated host that you can use with your domain?
10) Would you like the option to pay via PayPal and Habbo?

1) Would you feel confident in buying from me? I dont know you at all, so not unless you had an established site or a phiscal method of contacting you.
2) Would you feel more confident in buying from me if there was a control panel into which you could logon to and change your domain details? Makes no differnce to the confidence, but i woulnt go for any domain host that didnt provide one, since its pretty essently for any domain host IMO
3) Would you like to receive a letter in the mail to confirm your registration? and email to confirm is absoulty essental. invoice is also a good idea
4) What is the cheapest price that would not seem like a scam? Depends which domain.
5) How much would you expect to pay for the following: .com; .co.uk; .name; .net; .org.uk and .org?
.co.uk is around a £1 a year most commonly sold for 2 year preiods around 2.50 form the majory of places. .com and the rest all sit around a £10er a year, not sure about some of the others, it realy depends on the costs the domains offical registara puts on to licencing one of there domains "/
6) What features would you expect from the domain seller? Control panel to access and up date domain details, DNS, name servers, and all that. as well as a phiscial method of contact and support options, email is the major requirment IMO
7) What support methods would you expect (phone, email, online, SMS etc.)?
Email, Online are best, phone servise is also useful and acts as a phical contact method so people can use to varife its not a scam "/
8) What extra services would you be happy to pay for? None with a domain "/
9) Would you like an affiliated host that you can use with your domain? I choose my hosting seperatly as good domain sellers and good hosts rairly exist in the same entity, but may be useful for some
10) Would you like the option to pay via PayPal and Habbo? If habbo was a method of payment i would be forced to laugh at it, consider wheether you need mental help, then never return. Paypal is by far the best method since actaly transfers MONEY, and keeps credit card details safe, so u dont have to trust the actaly seller with them.

NB: These answers are honest ones and not intended to offend, as I do not know NintendoNews personally.

edit: and just to get it right - I am talking only of domain registration here - not hosting.

:)

[Sam]

Ok im not saying this to offend people, just to put them straight and calm they're worries ;P

NintendoNews IS Trustable =] I know this through personal trust, and i dont know really, i just know that he wouldnt scam etc as i have known him a very long time, even though he may not know it.

Seems like a good idea to me but if you want to get good publicity, its going ot cost money. Like advertise on google through the sponsored ads etc, post it around every webdesign forum you can find. Most people(as you know) cant quite afford domains etc on habbox. Accept the older generation obviously.

Survey on loads of different sites, dont let the 20 or so people that answer your survey stop you, after all they're kids ;P (No offence) If you want to create it then go ahead! Live a little.

This is my second from last post that im going to do as i am announcing my official leave soon.
