1. Pick the right category
Listings in the wrong category get filtered out by buyers. If you're selling a Shopify theme, it goes under Templates β not "Other".
2. Write a specific title
Bad: "Premium domain for sale"
Good: "TechAffinity.com β 15-yr-old aged .com, brandable for SaaS startups"
Specifics drive search ranking and clicks.
3. Lead with proof
Buyers want evidence:
- Domains: registration date, registrar, traffic, backlinks, appraisal links.
- Websites/SaaS: revenue, MRR, traffic graph (screenshot from Google Analytics), tech stack.
- Code/scripts: tech stack, demo link, key features, lines of code, license.
- Templates/graphics: live demo, file types included, license terms.
- Accounts: follower count, niche, engagement rate, age, transferable.
4. Pricing
- Fixed price: what you'll accept, no haggling.
- Or best offer: price posted but you'll consider less.
- Make offer: let the market tell you.
- Auction: for high-demand items, set deadlines.
5. Cover image
Use a clean 16:9 or square image, JPG/PNG/WEBP, under 25MB. Stock photos work; screenshots are better; product mockups best.
6. Tags
Comma-separated keywords help search. Use 5-10 specific tags (not "good, cheap, nice").
7. Bumping
Bump from your dashboard once every 24 hours β keeps you near the top of category pages.
8. Premium upgrade
For ~$X (see Fees), your listing gets:
- Top placement on category and homepage
- "β Premium" badge
- Higher visibility for 30 days
9. Closing the deal
- Reply to messages within hours, not days.
- Be transparent about caveats.
- Use escrow for transactions over $500.
- After payment, transfer the asset, mark the listing "Sold", and ask the buyer to leave a review.
10. Reviews matter
The single biggest predictor of future sales. Always deliver well, always ask for a review.
