domain Hello and general advice on my domains

[bilbo333]

Hello, this is my first post. I spent two hours last night reading the thread on selling to end users. Amazing info posted by many in that thread. Got me hooked and so I thought I would ask some questions of my own...related to domain values.

I am rookie with a capital R. I have reg about 20 domains through godaddy and have only sold one on ebay because it was a .net and priced it like a .info. anyway...I am interested in some general thoughts and feedback on some of the ones I registered...Thank you in advance.


tun-o.com
port-o.com
s-2x.com
getlipo.info
buyvirtualgoods.com
scrapbook-now.com
vegas-food.com


These are a few and I guess my first questions is..are hyphen domains a waste of time? All of these I came up with and registered.

Thank you

It was short, easy to remember and I thought it would make a great online clothing domain.. small to 2X.com

I of course knew little about picking domains except that short, easy to remember and relavent subjects make good criteria for a domain.

Until I read that great thread last night, I had never considered picking a domain to compliment an existing one based on google and yahoo searches.

iam gonne give the advise i got when i start in domains and i think its the most important advise a newbie can get ( you can also find it in the forums a lot )
stop to reg domains, dont register any domain until you fully understand what makes a good domain , just sit for few weeks or more and read as much as you can , this place is a great source of info with a lot of very friendly old timers that are happy to answer questions
this advise will save you a lot of money and a lot of reg fee appraises

i wish you all the luck and iam sure that soon enough you will have some great domains
