Hi, I hope this is the right community. I want to get a domain name for my own Lemmy instance. The one I have in mind is on auction on sedo.com.
I have no experience with acquiring a domain via auction. Is the price a one time fee for transfering the domain, and then the usual yearly fees (as for that TLD) applies, or is the price meant as yearly fee? I tried to find some info on this on the auction site but have not found a sufficient note.
Has anyone of you bought a domine name like that? Thanks for your help.
I think it’s usually more expensive that way. What I’ve seen is that these are usually domains that might be of special interest. This is also the case in the one that I have seen. (In contrast to auctions of physical things like on ebay, that might have aged already and thus are cheaper.)
That’s what I would like to know too. Either that, or the prices are the normal fees of the chosen registrar. I don’t know which.
That makes sense, why would a registrar auction a random domain just to be lowballed.
Porkbun it’s then, thx kind stranger.
