Selldom
Make money by selling your unused domains.
Traffic continues to grow month to month, new all time record in March!
During February we had the most visitors in one month since launching! Can't wait for the rebuild to go live.
I'm excited to share that Selldom now has 2,000 domains listed and available to purchase! Come find a domain for your next project: https://selldom.io #domains #domainsforsale
Gradually making progress on V2 of Selldom.io, the UI is coming along nicely and getting close to starting more of the backend.
We are finally starting to rebuild Selldom from the ground up, we are starting with matching current features and will expand from there.
Added a way for members to "Feature" their domains on the Homepage, Twitter, Facebook and Email Newsletter.
Created a new service allowing people to request a "Proof of Concept" design for their unused domain as another way to promote the sale.
Another Indie Hacker wanted to sell Selldom, so I purchased it from him and he transferred all assets to me.

Hi @emekaonu, thanks for the comment...
The previous owner posted on IH that he wanted to sell the site so he could focus on other things. I reached out to him through email and asked for more details on technical elements, on-going costs, traffic, users, etc. He followed up quickly and we just emailed back and forth to sort things out.
We agreed on his initial amount $1,250 for all assets related the site. I paid him through PayPal I think, I think I had received all the assets but not the domain prior to payment.
He was super nice and set everything up for me on a new server and configured everything so that I didn't have to try to figure it out on my own (especially since it's writing and hosted on a technology that I'm not well versed in).
After I paid, he transferred the domain to me and overall it was pretty smooth process. There is one issue still where if I use a DNS provider in the United States the site stops working, still trying to figure out why.
Since then I have been growing traffic, followers and adding basic features. Now I just need to make some money from it :)
Hope that helps?
