Show HN: A place to buy a business idea / To sell your 200 unused domains
6 points by jamesskarzynski 1922 days ago
I've noticed that in the IndieHacker space, there are two distinct groups of people.

Group 1: Have a million ideas, a thousand unused domains in their registrar account, and 15 projects that they're currently working on.

Group 2: Have the drive to start something, but for the life of them can't find a good idea to start working on.

I wanted to try and make a tool on my site that will bridge the gap between these two groups.

The idea is this: People from group 1 can list a combination of a domain, logo and business plan on the site. You can list it for sale on any platform such as Gumroad, Shopify, etc. People from group 2 can buy it and they will have a ready-to-go business idea, brand board, domain, etc. that they can start executing with.

If you're listing, there are no fees, commissions, etc. It's just totally free traffic.

Also, we'll be launching on Product Hunt later this week, so make sure you get your listings up before then!

P.S. While most listings will be approved, we do have some editorial standards. We're not going to approve domains like this-site-rocks-123.ninja.

I like the idea and a bit of a twist on the domain selling model. Is it ok to list a domain with site already going and SEO done etc? Or is it purely for domain + new idea
Absolutely! The more value you can provide the customer the better.
What’s stopping someone from stealing your idea ?
