Can you tell me what mistakes you made in domain investing

Can you tell me what mistakes you made in domain investing because mistakes teach us a lot?

Thanks

I had registered a lot of cheap .xyz domains one time. They were single word keywords, but now it has no sense to me. Like Spider.xyz
Some such names are selling for 50k$ today, but again, to me they have no sense.

In retrospect, my biggest mistake was getting into domain investing.

Same. Im now dropping them all as I realise that this was a mistake.

Like Spider.xyz

At first I chuckled a bit, but than I think It might have sense and sounds nice as a name for web crawler for example or other IT stuff, I would hold it

Never buy for nostalgia or emotion. If you cannot think of 10+ ways to make profit organically, then it will require too much time to make profitable. If you have to convince yourself to buy it, then don't. Listen to your insticts and not your emotions. Good hunting!

I've also bought domains with company names / trademarks in them, even to make fan sites. Not advisable.

I suspect Spider.xyz would sell if in the hands of Swetha
