Hi,

I've been having a great success in domaining ever since I started, already made 6 figs profit this year and had been doing great previously as well.

My domaining journey started about 4 years ago when I was 16-17 years old. I have had a great knack for everything related to technology etc, been playing games and using computers since I was 2 years old. I'm also lucky enough to belong to a well previliged family, studying in one of the best schools and colleges in my country.

Anyways, let's start off with my domaining story. I have been more into flipping ever since I began. The first domain that I sold was HoustonSwimSchool.com, bought for $10, sold for $320. I've sold many many geo domains since then and owing to this, I moved on forward with bigger domains. Domaining.com, DomainSherpa.com, Namepros.com and other domaining related websties were my daily dose of information and they helped me quite alot. I remember waiting eagerly for every DomainSherpa.com interview.

Some of the domains that I sold:

4 and 5 figs sales (sold every domain for profit except for 1 as I recall ):

few sales include(all of them are flips except for 1 or two):

Smaller.com - sold for $11k, bought for $2.5k , quick flip within a month
Gali.com - sold for $25k, bought for very low 4 figs , quick flip within a few days
Grew.com - sold for $11k, brokered it for original owner, quick flip within a few days
Write.com (sold recently) - sold for $190k, rest details private
xOnline.com - sold for $5.5k, bought for $500 , quick flip within a week
Studio55.com - sold for $2k, bought for mid 3 figs , inbound offer
VisualLabs.com sold for $2.5k, bought for mid 3 figs , flipped to reseller
LaptopParts.com sold for around $3k, bought for mid 3 figs , flipped to reseller
ProServices.com- sold for $2.5k, bought for $1700 figs , sold to reseller (flip)
TotalBody.com sold for $4.1k, bought for $3850 , negotiated after GD auction
Soez.com - sold for $2.5k, bought for $1000 , negotiated after GD auction
Proe.com- sold for MID 4 FIGS, bought for LOW 4 FIGS , Namejet auction
Cacc.com - sold for MID 4 FIGS, bought for LOW 4 FIGS , Namejet auction ( same as above)
Focl.com -sold for $900, bought for mid 3 figs , sold to reseller (flip)
AiPod -sold for $1k, bought for $69 , sold through inbound offer.


I have also made profit in geo domains usually sold 3/5 that I bought for low- high 2 figs and sold them for $200-$500.

And guys I DO NOT OWN A PORTFOLIO. I have been more of a flipper but now I'm thinking to build a portfolio since I have enough funds. You can make a living just through flipping domains.

And yes, I would love to answer any questions.

The views expressed on this page by users and staff are their own, not those of NamePros.
I'm more impressed that you managed to rack up such a high profit for being relatively late to the "game". Reselling and flipping domains to end-users is nothing new, what did you think gave you that "extra" edge over other domainers?
I see people in all industries say that it's too late. It's too late to do Amazon FBA, It's too late to do dropshipping. It's too late to do domaining. Etc. It's never too late if you know what you're doing.

Don’t have an email template. I just ask if the domain is for sale and give my number.
I think this is worth noting. No need to overthink the situation. Just ask if it's for sale and that's it. No secret template is needed.

I really inspired by your sales.
I don't want to raise any suspicion about your sales.
Why your age showing as 24 years if you were 16-17 four years ago?

Sure this happens many times with everyone, some good ones stay longer in our basket while the buyer selects which we didn't expect, so I can relate to it. Anyways, Congrats on your sale!

And some stay on the market, forever...

$190k is life-changing money.

All due respect, think, he’d be a fool to reject,
unless you already have the money, and re set

Yes Write.com is a type of domain that you’d be more inclined in holding until you get a good offer of say high 6 figs but since I didn’t have a portfolio of many other good domains it just didn’t make sense to me to just sit on one domain even though I don’t really have any funding issues but still I invested a lot on the domain ( around $85k).

It's just my own opinion. Already after sale of Voice.com, prices have somewhat increased in general. This kind of name can easily get 500k from an end user. For a fast flip, it's quite a work. Congrats!!

Hello Everyone,

Nice to see someone made the sale. Happy for you.

It is always good to congratulate and it sure feels good being congratulated at the same time but the main key element here isn't just money that derived from it but the process on how each one was purchased and sold for a profit. So to some, it might sound life-changing money for some the effort he put in that also brought in the learning experience counts more than money and I think whoever has been through this understand it better than me.

Today, if write.com is/was sold for a price of 190,000 US$ maybe someday a another nice domain, can be purchased anywhere from 10-50k might sell for 5-10 million so it's not like he left any money on table, but he picked up an experience from it which even 190,000 couldn't buy and it will make him a better person in understanding how to manage better names in the future.

My argument with many people on namepros and people around me who wants to learn about domains has always been that very few actually take time to teach you how domains are purchased and from where and most of the people who come here wanting to learn they come with an attitude that they could be overnight millionaire, which isn't bad at all we all see dreams, but we need to look at reality and learn how to make domains work.

The cost and research involved in this process are often skipped by some, or they often tell you which is the best domain that i can buy which can sell for whatever price.

what they fail to understand is that most successful domainers who sold or is yet to make his big sales have been in this for a long time but there is no easy money in life so one should do their research and invest in a fun way always start small and make your way forward and stick to your decisions unless your wrong and you don't wish to see it :)

Thank you but I just felt like typing this :) Good luck to everyone

Do you use private registration for domains you own?

When you send outbound sales, how do you know that he is a potential buyer?

What is the best way to appraise a domain name? I know it always comes down to "it is worth what somebody is willing to pay for it", but is there a reliable source that would get you in the ballpark?
