What I've learned after a year.

I'm still new, but I wanted to share my findings after a year in domain sales. This is a bit of a ramble, but I just had my first 2k+ sale on Afternic, and this may help at least 1 person. These are my views and they're not rules. I just wasted a lot of effort and money on the wrong things...

79 domains later, I was happy to find this place! (Greeting)

Hi Everybody, I decided to jump into the domain deep end. :xf.smile: Anyways, I purchased 79 domains yesterday. Most of which are regarding NFT, Blockchain, NFT Law/Lawyers, and Price Tracking It was an investment, and a risk, of course. I was so relieved to find this forum! I have a ton...

showcase Domains related to NFT (Non Fungible Token(s))?

I've invested in Immersive domains. I'm good friends with the CEO of Meow Wolf and I know just how lucrative that business is. It's surpassing traditional theme parks and amusement parks in the same sector. Plus, it has the side meaning for XR, VR, AR. It will take a bit to grow, but I'm...

What I've learned after a year.

I feel you on this. Each of these sites has something I love, but no one site has it all yet. I've found that Dan parking has the best success rate when passing through UBlock or another ad blocker. Due to lack of HTTPS certification/security, some pages may not display per user settings...

I was so amped and now, the silence...

Thanks Mike. You're spot on about MowCheap. I can't expect a lot of money from a domain like that. It actually made me laugh. Now, if I built an aggregation service for local mowing, maybe. I am trying to be tough on myself, and it's easier as I learn more. I'm already looking back 2...

So, I own about 300 or so domains. I've made a thorough Google Sheet which pulls in data using APIs and other sources. (If anybody wants the list, I can provide a basic CSV/TXT file) Some of them are great and are appraised quite higher than my BIN/floor prices. I made the mistake of...

You have 1 hour a day to work on domains. What to do?

Hey veterans! Just a question on time management in relation this profession... What would be the best way to spend the 1 hour each day? I'm open to light development like custom landing pages or a hub to contain all listing. I'm trying to manage my time, and I have 100+ domains. They're...

I just wanted to step in and say Thanks to all of you. I'm thankful that this community exists. The subreddit I found is just a giant flood of people selling domains. I really appreciate your feedback and knowledge. A few strategies I'll be focusing on in the short-term (per y'alls posts)...

I love this domain. There's a chance for crossover given that it could be food/candy related too. It reminds me of a food truck name. I think it was a smart buy but may take a while to pop off. pun not intended

Will do! Are there any essential Udemy courses or Youtube Channels? I'm in that weird spot now where I verified my stuff with Sedo but the sites go nowhere. So I want to use this time to research.

Thanks JHM, you're also so fast to reply. I had a feeling this was the case. I'm still getting a taste for what's out there. I'm getting a "dot com only" tattoo actually. On the inside of my eyelids. Appreciated :)

Google Domains, ..Nets and ICANN 60-days

So, I just sold my first domain (officially). I had 'sold' one last weekend, but it didn't pan out (no response, no escrow). Anyways, it's Google Domains, a .Net address, and registered 6/4/21. So! As it's not ~8/4, I'm still within the 60-day period. So, according to Google Support, I can...

advice Did I almost get hustled or am I paranoid?

Thanks, y'all. I've just seen so many scams out there, I get worried. The other two people who have contacted me on Flippa were scammers. Thanks for the quick reply to both of you @noneisnone and @mr-x

poll Add BIN or leave it blank?

That's a great idea. I've updated all of my domains on Afternic with a reasonable Floor Price. I recently inquired about a regional domain and I was impressed with the Afternic broker and his tenacity.

Thanks, I got swept up in trying to make it more complicated than it is. I'll focus on getting rid of what I have and hold off on buying unless I see stellar 750+ names. I've got way too many for being less than 2 months in. I appreciate the advice Thanks Jason! I've been watching the Dan...

poll Add BIN or leave it blank?

Basic question. :wacky: I've removed my BIN prices for all except for my .nets (stinkers). I've heard conflicting advice on this. The risk of over/under pricing seems larger when using BIN. However, not adding it may decrease visibility/sales. When should one add BIN, and when should one...
