Dreaming to sell your domain for
millions?
Each and everyday you hear stories about some name getting
thousands of dollars from the buyer. You also jump right into
the game of domaining and hope for that lucky day to arrive
when someone might get interested in your domain name.
Right?
The main problem with newbies over here is that they do very
less research and start spending their money on useless names.
After 6 months or a year their moral goes down the drain and
they are back where they were but with lighter pockets then
before. Some people get into the trademark mess.
They get sued by trademark holding company and then they
show their temper openly on forums and other message boards.
Some can't even monetize their domains to get the renewal fees
for the upcoming period. If you have 4 or 5 domains then you
can surely shed the amount from your own pocket.
But when the figure goes around 100's and 1000's it is very
hard to renew the domains for the future. My advice to newbies
would be to stick at 25 to 50 domains. They can earn for 10 or
20 renewals per year if your names are below average. Some
domain might get you more revenue and it can fill the gap for
you.
Ultimately the main thing is to not lose a domain for
nothing. You should at least get its registration fees from it.
This will not start downfall of your domain empire which you
want to build. 1 dollar loss is also a big loss if you have
more then 100 or 500 domains in your domain portfolio. So what
kind of domains you should buy? Choose wisely on which name you
are putting your money.
Three characters .com's are creating a lot of chaos right
now in the market. Their prices goes sky high in domain name
aftermarkets. Generic dictionary words are also long gone. New
TLD's are not so stable right now, dot-com still rules the
Internet.
You might get lucky in some other TLD's but I wouldn't
advice you if you are new in the game. 4 letters have 456976
combinations from AAAA to ZZZZ. Of them only around 5000 are
left. Which is of course the garbage. What do we do now if we
still want to get out feets wet in this? Look for some guy who
is willing to sell his domain for less. There are plenty of
places to find this kind of domains available for sale at lower
prices.
You can go to forums specially created for this kind of
discussions. If you don't know any then here is the one

there look for some domains which might fall under our
category and then approach the seller. Here also lookout for
trademark issues and blacklisting for that particular
domain. You can generally get this info from doing a whois
search for that domain here http://www.whois.sc
Keep your eyes and ears open for latest news. It might shed
some light and you might be the lucky one who grabs that name
for just registration fees and sell it for 1000's. Work on them
and get every cent out of them.
This will keep you in the game. The main thing over here is
not to win the game but to be in it and be till the last. For
