Afternic

In April, I wrote about why I preferred the Dan.com landing page over Afternic’s landing page. One of the big reasons was the ability to use camel case at Dan, which could not be done at Afternic. I think the presentation of the domain name is much better with camel casing, particularly if a domain name has consecutive letters where one should be capitalized (BusinessSolutions vs. businesssolutions).

Recently, Afternic launched a new BIN landing page design inspired by Dan’s landing page design. The differences are that the new landing page utilizes a GoDaddy.com url and it is completely GoDaddy-branded. I think there is a greater level of trust for customers who know the GoDaddy brand but are not familiar with Dan.com.

Yesterday, I wrote about the new Afternic landing pages that look similar to the Dan landers but with a GoDaddy logo and url. I am going to be migrating most of my inventory currently using Dan.com landing pages, but it is going to take some time to do all of that.

I’ve seen quite a few people share feedback and requests on X. I have also seen people reporting issues and bugs. I have been sharing my own feedback with GoDaddy representatives, and I thought I would put a list together with some of the things I would like to see before moving any of my names priced above $2,000+/-.
