DNForum review: selling adult domains to domainers

DNForum is a domain name forum founded in 2001 where you can sell domains and websites for free, with no commission. It has a section for adult domains, but provides no escrow and no checks on listings.

Our verdict on DNForum

DNForum suits a webmaster who wants to sell an adult domain or a small site to domain investors without paying commission. Accounts are free, the marketplaces by extension are open to everyone, and one section discusses adult domains.

You do the work yourself: there is no escrow and no listing checks, so negotiate and secure payment on your own, ideally through an escrow service.

How selling works on DNForum

DNForum charges no commission and no listing fee. The .com, .ai, gTLD and ccTLD marketplaces are open to free accounts, and a Websites for Sale board takes sites, forums and online businesses, such as SEXLOGY.COM, a domain and blog listed at $4,750. The Adult Domain Discussion board covers discussing, monetizing and appraising adult domains, and an adult domain is best listed in its extension marketplace with a plain description.

Auctions follow written rules: a starting price of at least $1, no hidden reserve, and accurate traffic or revenue figures if you choose to state them. Payment and transfer are settled between buyer and seller.

Premium memberships

Paid tiers buy visibility: Bronze at $300 a year with a directory listing and a newsletter slot every three months, Silver at $5,000 with a sidebar banner, Gold at $10,000 with a header banner and a press release. None is needed to sell.

Who runs DNForum

Founded in 2001, DNForum has changed hands several times and was acquired in April 2023 by Helmuts Meskonis. The footer names No Stress Limited, UK company no. 12629117 in Chatham, while the terms are written in the name of Dnforum.com, LLC.
