I was wondering if people actually make a living solely on buying and selling domains.
May I learn the size of your portfolio?
Portfolio size : 800Can you share more details on your success? Total amount of names? Cost of acquisitions? Sell through rate? > or < than 2%, and what marketplaces?
I think there are very few who live just selling domains. I am sure they have some other profession as well to earn their revenues.
Are there still names with that much traffic?
Even in US $100K/ year is great income for 1 person. highest income ta x bracket starts at around $125K and above, so that tells u what IRS considers common man "rich".FYI 60% of US population makes $50Kyear or less. $100K/ year anywhere is at least good money. Biut if ur a westerner who thinks and believes they can afford every comfort on earth, yes, $100K/ year aint that good.You say it's enough for the majority in the world and you are probably right... ie china, india etc.
However in North America it would be a hard thing to feed a family and provide housing for 100k. I know in my area of the world you cannot rent an apartment for under 2k per month much less buy a car and make a living.
My domain business is building my house.
Vague statement a hut in Thailand, does not cost as much as a home in Switzerland.My domain business is building my house.
Nope! It's not easier. Most of the countries (3rd world countries) you're referring to don't even have round-the-clock electricity, basic amenities, access to internet expensive or limited.If you live in 3rd world countries it is more easy than for european or american because we need at least 800 euros monthly for just live.
We I keep looking opportunities not just living selling domains. For me its a matter of luck if I get some good piece of domain in my hand.
1 bd 1 bath in nice highrise in thailand....$500 per month...i think the funy part is what u said
when people talk about lower living cost in poorer country it means it will cost u less to buy good food and good house there than in usa... this isnt about sheds and eating yer own excrement
How do you make money when you buy land?
1) buy it
2) build on it
3) sell it
Just buying and selling land can take decades to profit from. Buying land, building something on it and selling is much quicker and can be more profitable. Imo domains follow the same rule.
sorry, I am too impulsive, I always answer before to read till endeuh... I think you misread my post. cause what you just said is exactly what I said.
No I'm not but that's been my targetAre you making about $1000 a month? I think it may be a hard job making consistent $4000 every month
