域名持有者应该做的事情 GoDaddy 的新佣金结构

根据佣金的变化，您应该做几件事。
GoDaddy 的新售后市场佣金结构于 2 月 1 日生效。根据这些变化，域名商应该考虑做一些内务管理工作。
当域名停放在 GoDaddy 平台上时，新系统会奖励您 40% 的折扣，即 25% 的佣金。以下是您应该做的一些事情，以利用折扣并更新您的 Dan.com 帐户。
确保您指向的是名称服务器，而不是 A 记录。
我最近卖掉了一个停放在Uniregistry的域名，但没有指向UniRegistry的域名服务器，而是指向GoDaddy的 domaincontrol.com 名称服务器，我使用A记录将其指向Uni的系统。我像这样设置了许多域，以便可以将 MX 记录指向邮箱寄存。
鉴于Uniregistry今年可能会日落，而我不再使用邮箱寄存，是时候更改名称服务器了。我今天处理了这个问题。
我应该指出，目前，domaincontrol.com 并没有设置以获得减少的佣金。（我不再将域名指向Afternic的着陆器;我将它们设置为域控制，并使用我的 GoDaddy 帐户中的待售列表来添加待售页面。这比登录Afternic容易得多。这意味着一些销售将触发25%的佣金，而它应该是15%。GoDaddy 已意识到此问题。目前，您需要向您的 Afternic 或 GoDaddy 客户经理发送电子邮件，以更正任何不正确的佣金。
重新定价您的丹房源
如果您像我一样，由于可以节省佣金，您的 Dan.com 列表的价格可能比 Afternic 低一点。我愿意放弃Dan上市的5%左右，以激励人们在那里购买，而不是通过Afternic。
这种激励已不复存在。随着 Dan 佣金增加到 15%，提高您的 Dan 价格可能是有意义的。事实上，我认为Dan的价格应该高于Afternic的价格，因为我想激励人们使用快速转移。毕竟，这对我来说更容易。（当然，这忽略了Afternic的新规则，即着陆页价格应该与Afternic价格相匹配。
最终，您将在一个地方为您的域名定价，而不必担心。但是，在GoDaddy将Dan的付款计划添加到其着陆器之前，如果您想提供它们，则需要使用Dan。
选择您的着陆器
提醒一下，以下是将您的域名指向 Afternic 着陆器的选项：
停车着陆器 – 这些显示PPC链接和顶部的横幅，提及该域名正在出售。指向 ns1.afternic.coma 和 ns2.afternic.com。
铅着陆器 – 这些有一个潜在客户表单，供人们填写，如果他们想获得域名的价格。它还包括一个电话号码。指向 ns3.afternic.com 并 ns4.afternic.com。
立即购买着陆器 – 客户将看到要价，并能够单击按钮购买域名。指向 ns5.afternic.com 和 ns6.afternic.com。
Things domainers should do in light of GoDaddy’s new commission structure

A couple of things you should do in light of the commission change.

GoDaddy’s new aftermarket commission structure went into effect on February 1. There are a few housekeeping things domainers should consider doing in light of the changes.
The new system rewards you with a 40% discount off the 25% commission when a domain is parked with a GoDaddy platform. Here are some things you should do to take advantage of the discount and update your Dan.com account.
Make sure you’re pointing by nameservers, not A records
I recently sold a domain name that was parked at Uniregistry but didn’t point to Uni’s nameservers. Instead, it pointed to GoDaddy’s domaincontrol.com nameserver, and I used an A record to point it to Uni’s system. I set many of my domains up like this so I could point the MX records to Mailbox Park.
Given that Uniregistry will probably sunset this year and I don’t use Mailbox Park anymore, it was time to change the nameservers. I took care of that today.
I should note that currently, domaincontrol.com is NOT set up to get the reduced commission. (I no longer point domains to Afternic’s landers; I set them to domaincontrol and use List for Sale in my GoDaddy account to add the for sale pages. It’s much easier than logging into Afternic.) This means some sales will trigger the 25% commission when it should be 15%. GoDaddy is aware of this issue. For now, you’ll need to email your Afternic or GoDaddy account manager to correct any incorrect commissions.
Reprice your Dan listings
If you’re like me, you probably priced your Dan.com listings a bit lower than Afternic because of the commission savings. I was willing to give up 5% or so on the Dan listing to incentivize people to buy it there rather than through Afternic.
That incentive is no longer there. With Dan commissions increasing to 15%, it probably makes sense to increase your Dan prices. In fact, I’d argue that Dan prices should be higher than Afternic’s because I’d like to incentivize people to use Fast Transfer. After all, it’s easier for me. (Of course, this ignores Afternic’s new rule that landing page prices should match Afternic prices.)
Eventually, you’ll price your domains in one place and not have to worry about it. But until GoDaddy adds Dan’s payment plans to its landers, you’ll need to use Dan if you want to offer them.
Select your landers
As a reminder, here are the options for pointing your domains to Afternic landers:
Parking landers – These show PPC links and a banner at the top mentioning the domain is for sale. Point to ns1.afternic.coma and ns2.afternic.com.
Lead landers – These have a lead form for people to fill out if they want to get a price for the domain. It also includes a phone number. Point to ns3.afternic.com and ns4.afternic.com.
Buy Now landers – Customers will see the asking price and are able to click a button to buy the domain. Point to ns5.afternic.com and ns6.afternic.com.
