Haroon Basha · May 27, 2020

I want to make this post, which is going to be my 3000th post, a memorable one. I invite all domainers, the strugglers, small time domainers and middle level domainers, Experienced and inexperience domainers, domain experts etc. PLEASE SHARE YOUR EXPERTISE HERE.

The challenge is how to double the Capital in six months investing in Domain names.

What type of domain names you are suggesting to buy, from the Secondary Marketplace, and new registrations, particularly in .com.

What are the present trends?

What are the future domain names?

What are the best keywords preferred.

Also please try to suggest some websites where one can get free tools, where one can diagnose a domain name’s full history.

Further, readers can ask in this thread what else they want to learn from the experienced domainers.

ALL ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS DISCUSSION.

Hello everyone, I want to share some more of my sales in June because it was a great month to me.
The COVID epidemic seems like having no affect on domain sales, I see more and more offers coming than previous months.

The highest domain that I sold in June was Asia888(dot)com for $10,000 USD, and I also sold about 5 other .com domains in the range of low-mid 4 figures each, for a totally $20,000 USD sales prices. And my original investment was only about $500 USD for these 6 domains. So the ROI is about 40X times.

I grabbed Asia888(dot)com at Dynadot expired domain auction at something like $12.99 USD and I don't really know what it means but dotDB tells me that it has 44 similar registered domains and 7 exactly matched ones, so I assumed that it must be worth something more than $12.99 USD, and the sale proves that I am right, just FYI.

Congratulations.
Please were any of the sales from the purchase you made in June.

Inspired by Kahneman, Tversky, Slovic, Taleb et al., I only invest sums that are fully covered by passive income from other sources such as index funds, and focus on domains with uncapped income potential. The domains do not need to be trendy, all short (under two words) or brandable dotcoms will do.

When it comes to trends you can look at any showcase thread from 3D, VR, IOT, Weed, Crypto, etc. Most of the registrations are worthless.

The best domains today are generally ones that were good in the past and will be good in the future - Short domains, branding terms, keywords, phrases, quality GEO, etc.

I would rather buy those type than chase trends personally.

Spot on Brad, trends can change real fast and make an aftermarket purchase looking for a flip go out the window fast.

Awesome @fleaking Congrats on your very successful hobby. I also check dotDB from time to time and if I like it, I will get the premium. Are you sing the free version or premium. @AbdulBasit.com also swears by it.
One reason I haven't pulled the trigger on premium, I still can't figure out the advantage of dotDB over the Expired domains RDT. I filter by RDT and when I click the number shown in the RDTY field, it takes me to a page that shows the same result as dotDB. So I am missing something there. WHat more do I look for in dotDB?
@AbdulBasit.com bro. You also please check.

Thanks for this amazing post @Haroon Basha

@Haroon Basha good post. Congrats on achieving the 3k milestones. This shows your dedication and a healthy addiction to domaining

I think one should use Google Alerts to track new trends - also trends.google.com

further, for keywords - this post is helpful
https://www.namepros.com/threads/your-top-ten-domain-keywords.1199391/

And, what other domain investors are telling is to be followed.

I have multiplied my investment 7X in 10months.

Then you just need to repeat this 4 or 5 times...

Did you outbound your name to the them , or you wait for end user ?

Thanks for this amazing post @Haroon Basha

Sorry for a late reply I was extremely busy these days being a babysitter.

I use their Expert Plan and take advantage of the Bulk Search, their free version works quite similar to Expired domains RDT, however, with the Bulk Search at dotDB, I can scan a long list of domains simultaneously and identify the best ones by sorting the results with descending order (according to the number of TLDs taken from high to low), this would find me a lot of hidden gems instantly, for example, I checked the list of pending delete .com domains with dotDB's Bulk Search, and I found a domain name that has about 17 similar registered domains through the process in June this year, and I spent about $10 to acquire it when it dropped. About two months later I sold it for $3,000 USD(please see the attachment), the ROI of this domain name investment after commission is 240X times...just FYI.

I do this process occasionally like fishing or a small hobby because I am just too busy to run it every day, so I think that there must be still plenty of opportunities waiting for you.

I don't do outbound, all I do is to buy the right domains, and list them for sale at Afternic(Thanks to @AbdulBasit.com's articles), then wait the offers coming in.

@fleaking respect to your strategies. How do you sell these domains faster within the period of one/ two months e.g list them at the marketplaces or outbound marketing? Thanks for sharing!

He already answered that.

When it comes to ROI, people tend to forget about the renewal fees on the unsold names.
To me
ROI = Sold Names - (Cost + Expenses)

dennisok · Oct 4, 2020

OK thanks @fleaking

Great insight. I think your pricing also increases your chances of a quick flip
