Hey there,

where do you buy used domains (for SEO purposes)?
what's a good place where I can quickly see what the real (not faked) PR is and how much they really cost?

and I'd rather avoid auction places etc, I just want to buy a domain now.

Cheers

  • Check the domain name PR before you buy - SEO moz has a free toolbar that will help you with this.
  • what I can't see at buydomains is the PR ... am I missing something?

  • I can help you get good prices at Buydomains if you need. I've bought domains worth $xx,xxx from them and have access to better pricing than most people. PM or contact me through my site.

    I will not receive any commission but perhaps they will give me an even better discounts on my future acquisitions.

  • Go to anywhere you can buy domains for fixed price as you like (such as BuyDomains.com since others have mentioned it) and either use whatever export function they have or simply copy them straight from the page and paste them into DNCleaner.com to get just the domains, then run them through Estibot (paid account lets you run bigger bulks and more per day, see the account breakdown). Estibot will give you PR, Alexa, Google search #s on the keywords (which aren't always accurate but are generally close) and even an appraisal for each domain. As a domain trader, Estibot is the best value I'm getting out of paid membership I have right now and I don't even pay attention to their appraisals! I just use them for bulk-data on domains.

    I have domains for sale myself, but not many of them have PR as that's not a primary focus of mine. There's a lot of people selling PR domains at DigitalPoint.

    • Hi GuerrillaIM,

      I hereby declare that I'm not affiliated in any form with that page. I don't sell their service at all. But it happened in the past that I purchased from them, and I was happy with. I think it is good if you share your positive experience here. I'm sure you also will help if you can.

      Thank you for your kind understanding.

      Have a nice weekend,

      Sandor

    • Hi GuerillaIM,

      Nothing strange happened. All of us are human only. So, I'm also not perfect.

      Have a nice day,

    • I'll check them out (again, first time I visited their site it was all in German, so I left ... this time I discovered their "US" version at the top...)

  • Sedo database is very high but they charge very huge amount if you compare with other domain bidding sites.
  • Godaddy offer a great service. Go to the domain auction section.
  • With EMDs falling out of favor in Google, is it worthwhile to buy old domains with higher prices? Can't we use the same money for good quality content and get a better SEO ranking? It's true that old domains would have some advantage, but they cost hell a lot more. Is the price to advantage ratio worth the cost?
    • [1] reply
    • I agree. You don't have to focus more on EMD and spend a lot just to get it. You can buy old domain names with very cheap prices. You can go to goDaddy and there are lots of old domains on Auctions sold at a very low price somewhere between $5 to $50 for a 3-8years old domain. Not bad.

    Make sure you analyse all domains.

    • Can't stress enough the "analyze all domains" part of that. You can find a good domain there now and then, but many, many of the domains being sold got their PR by redirects to high PR sites. In other words, "fake" PR, even if the seller shows a screenshot from some PR-checking site that says "valid".

    • WOW. All I can say is if you want to buy domains with PR

      Run don't walk away from this thread


      Seomoz does not give PR. The have metrics but not Google's PR

      buydomains for PR domains? Well if you want to mortgage your home to buy a few.


      Home of the most questionable sellers. Good you said to analyze but there are other ways you can get ripped.

      OP can't believe all these answers and only one person has mentioned ONE legit one.

      Goaddy and then add to that snapnames and namejet

  • I have a few PR4 full websites I am considering selling for a fair price. PM if you want more info. All are DA30+
  • Instead of just depending on PR ,you need to consider DA/PA to get better results. Also check the link profile of the domain you are going to buy.

    • Me? I'm tired of stupidity on this board (plenty people are)
      A) somebody else brought my course into it not me
      B) if its a crock then why in essence are you suggesting that people buy aged domains yourself
      C) Good PR5s cannot be had on Godaddy for $30
      D) members here are supposed to be over 18

    • Webby run along to school and catch up on your reading skills. I never said you were lying. I don't doubt you bought PR5s. the question was are they good since hundreds of other experienced domain buyers passed on paying more than $30 for them? Your excuse that they passed because they didn't know to check backlinks on faked domains failed - thats all.

      I get that every now and again on this board. Is it an age thing? Jerry Macguire isn't that old a movie. Plus you would think that people would look up the word before making idiots of themselves. Anyway you are still stuck at the 5% discount but as a bonus here - educate yourself on a great movie

  • I use a number of different sources including Godaddy auctions and expireddomains.net

    I never buy on PageRank, I only buy on the domain's backlink profile.

    Usually if you buy and expired domain with a decent backlink profile, the PR will come back within 100 days of a web site being activated on that domain.

    I frequently buy PR2s and PR3s for as little as $3 each. I keep it for 12 months, if it has decent PR at the end of that 12 months I renew, otherwise I just let it lapse and spend another $3 on a replacement.
