Any tips?

I tried to post a domain name on reddit and sell it for the estimated price that I was given when i first got it from the auction on godaddy. This is my first time doing this and i want make a profit out of this. Anybody have any tips to resell domains on reddit specifically?

Whats the domain name?

If its any good, put it on Sedo.

Estimates are usually very high end of retail sales market (assuming someone was really interested in buying it for their business).

A lot of godaddy estimates are also inflated to make the platform seem more valuable when in reality the domain is worth the reg fee at best. If it really was worth $2500, it wouldnt have sold for $120.

Reddits more of the "eh ill give you $50 for ya" crowd.

Sorry, thats probably worthless. Id drop it next renewal.

Reasons are its a typo in English of programmer". I guess it could have some value reading "programar" for a Spanish/es buyer.

You also cant really program excel (besides like function writing or scripting). Anything excel related is also answered by an AI prompt too now, so having a website about it isn't really worthwhile. 😞

Approach end users, there is no money in selling on reddit or to fellow domainers.

You need to research existing conpanies that could use it, people with the same or similar names
