If you are a domain name seller, you might be interested in attending GoDaddy’s Google+ Hangout tomorrow. Representatives from GoDaddy will discuss Afternic’s integration with GoDaddy and answer some questions at the conclusion of the Hangout. The free event  is scheduled for Tuesday, July 28 at 1:00 PM EST (tomorrow).

Instead of having to think about the type of listing and promotion to determine the commission rate, the new commission structure is strictly based on the sale price of the domain name.

The commission structure for aftermarket domain name sales on GoDaddy and Afternic is as follows:

I want to share a job opening that might be of interest to someone who has experience selling domain names. GoDaddy is looking to hire a Aftermarket Manager of Outbound Sales, and the position will be based in its soon to open Cambridge, Massachusetts office. The person that is hired will most likely be working with the Afternic team to sell domain names via outbound marketing channels.

According to the job listing that was posted earlier today, “As an Aftermarket Manager of Outbound Sales at GoDaddy, you will be responsible for building, developing and leading a team of Outbound Sales Consultants in our Domains Aftermarket department. Along with your director, you will work to develop and improve the processes, environment and results of the team.”
