How can a Newbie recover from this mistake

[Parmeet]

Hi,

Like most New comers in this industry, I made the same mistake of registering a set of hand-registered domain names. I have registered 40 domain names before joining NamePros and after reading NP for a month I feel that I am in some trouble. I have listed these domain names on each market mentioned on the NP. But since they are Hand Regs I doubt that my decision to buy them. Because Domaining needs a lot of patience, I can hold these domain names for 3-5 years, but I don't know if they really have the Potential.

How can I overcome this? Should I start outbounding or I should just wait? Should I liquidate them at the end of registration period or Should I renew them all? The biggest question I have is what price should I enlist them? Below are the domains I have registered. Do you see any potential in these domain names?

Thank you for your response. I have registered them all in the first week of January 2021. Most of them are still in a 60-day lock period. So I have about 10 months from now.

Yes, I can create a website like I am in SEO. But I still doubt if the efforts made to build a website on all these domains pay off well.


The reason I bought a bunch of verb+Now is that these domains were sold in mid $$$ to initial $,$$$ on NameBio and Godaddy as well, But Now I think it might be the Domain age that might be a big factor in those sales.

Example:
RecoverNow- $1650
DetectNow- $ 3000
IgniteNow- $1,107
PerormNow- $1500

These verbs are stronger than those in my list though


The end users I Planned at that time based on the verb were:
Pry: security software, Drones
Attempt: online Examinations
Beg, Moan: Adult sites
Heap, owe: Banking, Financial
Peel: Skincare, cosmetic
Criticize: media house
Admire, Prefer, Dislike: dating, women
Burp, Marinate: Food, beverages
Shut: Photography
Examine, Determine: websites that determine value of your assets eg:Estibot
Swear, Deny, Ignore, Forbid: NGOs
Snore: Mattress, Doctors for treating Insomnia
Intend: Motivational websites
Differ: Clothing
Overtake: automotive

But I personally feel that the addition of "Now" is making these domain names weak

I have listed these domain names on Dan, Afternic and other known platforms for $ 190 to $ 290. I am also getting views. I do not know what views are worth.

The main aim of selling these domain names is to increase my learning, profits are secondary. I know domain selling is a time taking skill, So expecting a profit so early wont be fair.

I have started outbounding for PortMacquarieRealEstate.com, ChesterfieldCountyRealEstate.com, WashoeCountyRealEstate.com as Now I feel its easier to sell Geo domains as a newbie than Brandables.

Yes, I thought verb+Now can be used as brandables but all these names are rejected by alter, and the top ones by BrandBucket and SquadHelp. I cant test all these names as it cost 1$ per name and it increases my liability.


I need to sell 2 names for getting my investment back and 3 names to renew a few of these better names. I still think so I can manage these targets in 10 months especially with the non verb+now domain names.

If there any other suggestions please let me know. Thanks to everyone who replied in this thread.

ExamineNow.com is perfect for tele med doctor checkups, very nice and valuable domain.

Nah, that is not a mistake.

Trying to sell these and having success is what makes you a domainer.

Buying and selling names that everyone wants makes you a simple reseller.

Yes, the chance of learning the tricks of the trade.

But some time spending time, energy and money someone may get discouraged if does not get the desired result...of course it all depend on the nature of the person and lots of ‘ifs’ and ‘buts’

Actually majority of experience persons opinion matters in my view...as the forum and discussion is for that only, and you get the ready made experience from smart and seniors...with logical solutions.

Pardon me if you don't like my views...

Good Day!

Honestly, this is not a terrible list of domains for hand regs. You are at least on the right track with mainly (2) word .COM.

I could see a domain like ExamineNow.com selling to an end user eventually. Some of the real estate ones you might be able to sell to end users directly for $XXX range.

I would say at least 98% of first registrations are far worse.

On this forum, you can find some smart experiences such as apprising a 4L for a reg fee and a few months later invest 2K buying a 4L. (same guy)
Also, you can find pros that said that poker.io costs a reg fee and nobody will gonna use .io in future
(all these posts are back in years)

Build your own experience. Trust yourself.

A mistake is to forget auto-renew options on domains that you gonna drop and being charged. :D

Then get to work. Celebrate small successes. Analyze your weaknesses. Keep going. As you gain skill, you'll also gain a feeling of genuine confidence, one that can never be taken away--because you've earned it."
