Hi everyone!

My name is Andreas and I am really glad I found this place. :) I am a German front-end web developer and designer, currently living in Spain. I am not really an expert in domain selling/buying, though I could sell some keyword and LLL dotIO's for good profit on Flippa and Sedo last year. But that was more like a gamble. Actually I don't plan to dive too deep into domaining because the research for good domains would just drive me crazy over time. I tried that a while with dotCOM's and I just can say: respect to all you guys watching over and over of endless lists of expired and deleted domains.

At the moment I am trying to setup a few affiliate websites to generate some extra income. There's a lot of crappy affiliate marketing on the web and I aim to market in a more meaningful way by building HQ websites with advanced end-user experience and content that actually matters. I am quite fit in SEO and I hope I will succeed. Time will show. :)

I am here to get a better understanding of domain values and usage as I need domains for my projects. Maybe I can find here some. The trading system of this site seems very easy and straightforward which I like. So, cu around guys!

Oh well, one more thing. I recently registered a few keyword gTLDs. All of them are new gTLD extensions. I know a lot of .com domainers don't really like these new gTLDs and stick to the classic ones. In my opinion they have a lot of potential if it's a good keyword/extension combo. I always liked catchy names and I don't have the budget for getting similar dotCOMs (which also wouldn't make much sense for my purpose). I registered some .plus domains for my product marketing sites (productname.plus). In Germany a plus extension related to products is very common and defines some kind of extra value. I wonder how this is in the US. As far as I know this extension is not very popular as it has only few registrations so far compared to other new gTLD extensions. I am really interested in your opinion on what you think about this extension and if it also could work on the US market. Thanks in advance for all feedback.

Saludos!

Not really mate, Exact match keyword domains still have a good clout. Sure they dont pack a mean punch like they used too. I mean back in the day all you needed was an exact match domain... some really poor content and a few decent backlinks and you were sorted! The Exact match domain was your ticket to the golden highway. Obviously, these days an exact match domain alone is not going to cut it. It does still have considerable advantages for ranking compared to a non-keyword domain. It still needs to be coupled with good quality content, good quality back links with good link diversity as well as strong social media engagement.

Ya, you are right. I just read an article about it. I was reading something different in the past and thought they do not have any advantages at all nowadays. But it seems they do when coupled with HQ content as you stated. Also interesting that Google penalizes poor quality EMD sites now. Probably you already now, if not, worth a reading...uhm, not allowed to post the link >:(

Yep, Google pretty much penalises ALL poor quality sites now, EMD and non EMD :)
