![]() | Hey, welcome on board, $200 is not too good of a budget, however, anything is better than nothing. What i would suggest is that you should purchase 2-3 4 letter dotcoms and wait for few weeks and then try to sell them at profit, meanwhile keep them parked and see if you can make any money from parking. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | If you only have $200, I would recommend not spending 1 cent until you spend at least a couple months learning about domaining -- you have no room for error with such a small amount. There are people who've started with smaller amounts and enjoyed enormous success, however it would be a whole lot easier to start with $2000 instead of $200. |

![]() | Before anything i wanna thanks everybody for the help that you gave to me. And btw i have one question: I read in one blog that we should choose an niche and stick with it! But i didn't understand one think, i should stick in a niche of type of domains (like engineer, news etc) or i should stick with a niche of the domain extension (like aaaa.com 333.com). Or what im saying is so stupid that you prefer not to comment? ![]() ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-newbies/593226-another-newb-in-this-world.html One more time, thank you. |

![]() | By niche, they are suggesting you focus your domain purchases and development projects on one specific topic. The goal is to pick a "niche" or topic you're familiar with, so that you can use any experience you have to make smart purchases and/or contribute it to developing those domains into $ makers. For me, I know alot about auto loans and auto financing (specifically subprime). So when I first started out, I bought a bunch of domains with key words centered around bad credit, bankruptcy, auto loan, car loan etc. Right now I'm developing my first "mini site" - which is basically a way to develop traffic & then convert it to advertising revenue. It can also help increase the resale value of the domain. Because I know alot about this topic, I feel pretty confident I made some smart domain purchases. The experience I have in this field also makes it easier for me to write content that will bring in search engine traffic and help me develop a website that is actually knowledgable. There is ALOT to this "Domaining" business. The best advice you can get (and you've already been offered it), is to spend ALOT of time on NamePros.com reading. READ everything and ask questions. PPL here are great. ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=593226 Here are some good starting points. Find threads and articled about: - SEO (Search engine optimization) - Mini Sites (find example sites and wrap your head around what they are) - Revenue Options (Learn about AdSense, Parking, Affiliate Programs and what they are) - End User Sales (You need to chase your customers, not wait for them) Those are a few good topics to read about...but please make sure you spend ALOT of time in the NEWBIE section and the Domain Discussion section. There is so much there. I'm new to this too but in a matter of days, NamePros.com and the people here opened my eyes up and really taught me alot. Spend your time here and if you're spending your money, spend it on what you know! Good luck! |

![]() | ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=593226 2. I just started out with bans , this year in fact. traffic is increasing month after month.. as regard to income.. $500 per month is my first goal.. i am on the process of achieving it. (piece of advice, don't give up easily it can be frustrating when you can't see the earning for the first 3 months. )it depends on what keyword you targeted and traffic you target.. my experience is US traffic is usually valuable CA and UK traffic is not bad either.. don't bother to buy traffic (you can but usually it leads closely to zero conversion , plus it screws up your data (misleading) - hard to trace performance in short.Always, keep track of your traffic.. (use google analytic) to keep track of your data. If you have any question as regard to store design or any other difficulty.. members in namepros are wiling to give a helping hand. (Tips: put your store on review - you can get countless feedback). Really appreciate the help from namepros member that had helped me Good luck buddy |
