Good evening!
My name is Ivars and I come from small country in Eastern Europe. I have a decent job, but I`m always hungry for more, so to say...
For some time I was trying to find some decent "side hustle", to not only make some extra money, but something that I would actually like and that would be interesting and exciting. So, one day randomly browsing internet I stumbled upon some blog entry about domain flipping. I did some research for couple of days about perspectives of this business, specifics and so on and finally I decided to give it a try.
All that happened more than a month ago and that is how long I am involved in domaining.
So far I`ve read pretty much everyt worthy thread in beginners section, plus some more. I would say that I pretty much understand basics now (at least I`m not hand-regging crappy names)
but still have a ton of questions, especially when it comes to defining domain`s selling value and where to sell wich exact domain.
Paralell to that I`m slowly self-educating myself in web design. To be precise - I`m just reading my first book But my plan is to learn to set up at least simple page, to create my own website (already hand-regged domain for that) and maybe in future make some simple sites, to develop some of my domains.
To be honest - my goals (both - short and long term) are pretty modest (at least comparing to what other seasoned domainers here earn). As I mentioned above - I have a decent job and by no means I want to quit it (at least in mid-term future), so I want to establish domaining only as an additional way of income, and I will be really happy (honestly!) if I will be able to make up to 500$ per month from it (from where I come from it`s a good ammount of money for a "side hustle"). Speaking about short term - I would like to see my cash flow turn positive by the end of the year. In fact - I would be thrilled to actually see at least SOME cash flow, because I`m having a hard time to sell my domains at all.
My first domain name - lamusicasalsa.com. Picked it up on GoDaddy, renewed, listed on Flippa auction for 9$ (13 views, no bids), total cost - 40$. Sold it here last week for 1$
That`s my story in short, folks! I`m always open for any new ideas/suggestions/advices/criticism etc.
Have a good night.
Regards,
Ivars
