In this week's Top Topics, we take a look at the potential qualities that differentiate successful domain investors from unsuccessful ones. Elsewhere, an investor asks for opinions on the .CO versus the .NET extension, and how do you keep track of your domain names?
Also, a domainer is looking for recommendations for the best registrar to manage five-hundred or more domains, and an experienced investor is back with more advice for newbies.
The Qualities That Differentiate Successful Domainers from Unsuccessful Ones
The fact is that there are swathes of successful domain investors making significant money from domain names. At the same time, there are hundreds of unsuccessful investors that are struggling to turn a profit or create a domain sales opportunity.
How, then, do you become a successful investor? Are there certain qualities that differentiate successful investors from unsuccessful ones? Do successful investors make learning and knowledge a priority, or is it purely down to access to money?

.CO vs .NET - Which is Better?
The .CO and .NET extensions have traditionally been the most common alternatives to a .COM when the .COM is inaccessible or unavailable. Lately, startups seem to covet .CO over .NET, according to my own findings. However, is one better than the other?
When you take time to analyze both extensions, does one come out as a better extension for end-users and domain investors alike? Does pricing, TLD awareness, or brand-ability count when comparing these extensions?

How, then, do you keep track of domain names? In this discussion, an investor is considering switching from using an Excel spreadsheet to something else. Would you recommend a product or solution for keeping track of a domain name portfolio?
