Hi everyone! So basically I got into domaining because I wanted to have some digital assets to my name, which would incrase in value over time and could potentially be sold eventually for a considerable margin. Exactly one year ago I bought 3 domains and didnt do much else about it after it, I didn't really expect to make any money right away nor did I care about losing some money in the learning curve. Anyways I want to post here the steps I took and I'll be grateful if I could have some feedback or tips about my way of action thus far.
-chefily.com - Found this domain on a expired domain list and registered it for $9, thought it was a nice, kind of short and brandeable name on the cooking / food nieche. Submitted this one to brandbucket and got published for $1995. Also plublished it on the namecheap marketplace in the low $xxx's
-remodelgeek.com - Also found on expired list and registered for $9, this is my least favourite but it's the one that's getting the most traffic. Published it both on sedo and the namecheap marketplace in the low $xxx's
-biotic.me - found this one on a list of .me domains in this forum and registered it for $7. Thought it was a nice and short combination of words even tho im aware the .me domains arent the most valuable. I also published this one on both sedo and namecheap marketplaces.
All of these were registered at namecheap because i used it in the past, has lower prices and I could also pay in crypto, which is nice.
Now I just topped up the balance to renew all of these, but what I'm also finding out is that renwing is more expensive that registering them, which i didnt expect ($47.3 to renew all 3 of them).
I would like your opinion on my name picks, the places I've choosen to publish there, and maybe some advice I can take to potentially have better result in the next year. Thank you!
