I'm not a domain investor, I work for a drop catch platform for expiring .nz domain names. It's a side line to our main Registrar business in New Zealand. We have adhoc NZ users who want to grab a domain they're interested in and then we have a...
Thanks for taking the time to write such a thoughtful reply. Your points have given me quite a bit to think about.
The biggest insight for me is that the challenge perhaps isn't just liquidity itself, it's reducing the uncertainty around the...

I'd be interested to hear if anyone has tried some of the strategies you've explored on your page.
Just a note, at the top of your page it's mentioned that anyone can...
Hi guys,
I'm interested in hearing from investors who actively buy expired domains.
