Register good domains with words that last.. Think long term. Wait for a special. 1-5 years sell.
It's a waiting game.
A domain regged today for 5 years say at domain.com say in VR or AR or iot or drone or biometric or even geo will only increase in value over time. In theory.
Even at after market. $50-$300 investment can turn into $xx,xxx. Over time if you pick a domain with "staying" power.
Mike Mann always posts his sales and it's a great marketing tool.
It gets in the news.
Mean I wouldn't put it past anyone to create an offshore account with a company of its own buy a domain for $100k that he or she just registered transfer it to the account of that offshore company that he or she just created.
The $100k technically stays in their pocket.
Result? He or she becomes toast of the town. As the domainer who sold a "head scratcher" domain for $100k to an undisclosed buyer.
How many times have you ever heard this that headline in the domaining industry?
And if you check the domain. It's not used for anything just parked.
We all assumed it's just someone who saw value in that domain for some strange reason.
But the seller now gets tons of publicity for it.
And can now have the clout to ask for nothing less than $xx,xxx.
Lol
Sure not all the sales will be like this just occassional. Just to keep them relevant and on the lips of every domainer. It makes them the pros thee auhorities of domaining.
It's actually brilliant way to get free advertising.
News worthy articles stay forever in website pages. Ads you must pay monthly for
On websites there are two pieces of valuable real estate the top, the right and bottom and middle.
And there is the middle middle the actual meat and potatoes the article itself
Where do you choose to be? Monthly pay? Or permanent free ad forever?
A few pioneers had to be doing this for publicity in the "good ole days" prior to strict kyc policies now they are gods.
Give you any ideas?
