Sometimes, time is more expensive than domains. To spend lots of time on domains earning next to nothing is pointless. Unless you've got other money, spending a few months in order to make $1000 by flipping $500 domain for $1500 (if you can) means the road to $3000 per day will take a lifetime...

You could consider it an investment. Knowledge takes time to acquire. Wisdom takes time through experience. You gain neither without that initial investment.

Indeed, I started off with what, 1-2k and lost it all over a period of a year, took a year too really make any kind of money, and that was chump change until the last year really exponential growth, then stunted...

Now back at it again! 1st day of a reg, found a $1 a dayer, and a 100/ uq a dayer! But of course, another 3-4 flops traffic wise.

Always a risk!

:bingo:

lol...You forgot to throw in happiness and contentment, Grasshopper Poe...

Perhaps a more fitting philosophy in this case is offered up by Popeye's friend, Wimpy: "I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today."

As most of you already said the investment to ccTLDs takes time but this is a rule that applies to any xTLD (g or cc)
So if we take the time to discover the right registrars, ccTLDs, names, legal issues.... and balance it with the research to popular gTLDs we have a balanced time investment that can deliver equal or more profits

gTLD market is over-saturated, nobody denies it but there is a market, people request or are interested to hear. The bowl of fish is there. On the other side ccTLDs are not so flexible, buyers are not so well educated, many of them prefer gTLDs for their companies, can't understand the meaning of a strong generic words and try their luck with dashes or other tricks (all these apply for gTLD too but ccTLD are too easy to notice)

I didn't touch the issue of parking yet. We see CPC revenue dropping and big G lower the quality rating for parked names.
It doesn't matter the extension for the name but the place/country for the incoming traffic.
It's logical to say that a ccTLD will have more traffic from the country that represents but i saw .coms too that didn't form english words to be visited from people of the country that this name had a special meaning. The CPC was low.

Summarizing, we live in a world that trends affect each other. The "see and replicate" effect is always on. TLD awareness is very crucial factor but also internet penetration and internet marketability.

Check for example Rick's site for TRAFFIC cctlds.com to notice the big gap between ccTLDs

And you're going to build this "trust/authority" as a mysterious and nameless person who won't verify the Sedo stats and revenue that you're using to get everyone's attention?

We have sent Sedo’s rep on here a private message to verify this information but have not heard back. If we don't hear back soon, we will contact our account manager there and see if he can come post and verify.

10 days after your post above and you're still not able to verify the claim?

one question: how do you determine traffic? I've got domains that have Alexa ranks in the 4-6 million range get one or two visits a months, while some domains with no or very very low Alexa ranks (20 million+) get 10-30 visits a day.

Does Alexa even matter when it comes to determining traffic, or do you just follow a 'hunch'?

Alexa is based off users who use their toolbar, afaik. It's not good, unless comparing to other sites. It works fine comparing google to yahoo etc, but not useful when working out your own sites value.

From everything I have read in this thread it seems to me that 3000aday really knows what he says. What he wrote in the thread is completelly true for cctlds. As to availability, I would say that from my point of view, if someone has low $X,XXX to invest into traffic cctlds, it is quite enough for the beginning.

It doesn't matter the extension for the name but the place/country for the incoming traffic.

This is very true in case of traffic monetization.

It is obvious that there is lot of available cctlds with type in traffic, say, of XX-X,XXX uniques/month (and even gtlds). These are not only 1-2-3 letter domains. However, sometimes it is rather difficult to monetize cctlds type in traffic. I mean exotic cctlds with high renewal fees. In this case regfee is the problem. Say I know few available domains with guaranteed type in traffic of X,XXX/month but I don't register them because there is a risk not to get a profit from them. If, for example, regfee is $50 and domain gets X,XXX uniques/month, you have to be able to earn $100+/year to get a real profit ($50 to cover regfee + $50 renewal fee + profit). It is the case if you expect to get profit only from the traffic.

it results in conclusion that someone needs to have some good skills in few languages and good knowledge of traffic monetization. Someone has to have time to construct websites in various languages (with custom content, affiliate links etc.) or have money to hire someone with programming skills. Definitely, a better idea is to have a team where someone, say, spends all time for searching domains and someone deals with traffic monetization. Of course, it is always possible to sell nonconverting traffic domains at forums but people don't pay high $$ for high traffic domains if these don't convert well and the name itself is not premium one. Probably you will cover regfee and get few extra $$ but it is not the right way IMO. The right way is successful traffic monetization.

What I want to say: IMO it is pretty easy to find available cctlds (gtlds too but in a lesser extent) with type-in traffic but be very careful, it is only 1/2 of the success. You have to be able to get a real profit from them.
