Thanks everyone for comments.
I actually have an entering the industry story and questions
.Maybe you can enjoy the story and get new ideas.And inspire me with your ideas.
Don’t know much about the forum rules,is it ok to chat and ask questions under this thread.
I assume that it is ok.
For couple of days i was thinking about ‘Which domains i can sell following days that i reg them.And how i can find these domains.And these domains should be risk free.So i can sell them easy in a short period of time.And to accomplish this there should be a buyer really willing to buy the domain. I think it was best to sell the domains for end users. When i check expired domains for turkish words,i realized that some of the domains has its .net and .org extensions registered. These were mostly some common firm names and some common names,and lastnames.I realized that even some names has its other possible writings registered like firmname-Sectorname.com(Like BlablaAgency.com) and firmnameSectorname1.com. There were pros and cons of these domain names.
Some pros were;
since the .com was most prestigies extension FirmnameFirmssector.com’s possible buyers were ready. I wasn’t going to search for buyer, all sites has contact parts. All i should do was contact with them after i registered the domain name. Also instagram was a possible search and connection tool for the possible buyers.There were 4-5 possible buyer for a domain. 2-3 of them has a current website of other possible extensions and names.
Some cons were;The most prestigies firm and possible buyer at high price has its own extension of com.tr(Turkey’s country extensions). There we go, domain just lost a buyer with a possible high budget.
The second mood killer was that since the biggest firm has its own extension. Other firms were mostly local and dont have much of interest in websites and current website owners don’t have much budget and also their current domain name was aged.They mostly saw the domain as an investment.
So the last possible buyers was the firms that don’t have website.But the problem was that these people didn’t have much knowledge about websites and how it could boost the sells of his firm. And these last kind of buyers don’t have much budget as the others.
When i look at pros and cons,it was reasonable to register some domains and test the system.It was gonna cost me few register fees if the system was not working.I registered couple of domains with high competition on firm names.I started to contact the firms.I sold some domains and some names was not interested much.Why i couldn’t sell the domains was as preticted.The domain buyers were local/were not interested in websites since they were local/didn’t have high budget,they bid low prices that even wasn’t enough to cost 2 register fees.And wasn’t enough to repay my efforts. But the lessons and experiences i received was good. The first lesson was that focusing Turkish domains was my first mistake.
But i think the same system was not applicable for the english domains because the competition in a firm names in same sector was not much.I think in other countries using their name and surname was a thing when starting a bussiness.Turkey has advantage in that, people were always using common names when starting a bussiness.And even if they use only names/ only lastnames and Sectorname(like agency,real estate) when startimg a business, there were some names/lastnames has over 1 million people that share same name or last name.
Anways, this post was more long than i imagined. :DThe upcoming post will be about ;Since the same system was not applicable for english domain names i developed another system.
While i was searching pending delete/expired domains for some specific keywords,i realized new kind of system that might be a good way to find domains and sell them at reasonable price.But there is much i need to cover on that system.And much questions that should be answered.
