How did you get started investing in domain names
That's an interesting question,
A lot of people invest in domain names these days for a variety of reasons,
So how do you invest in domain names?
Let me give you your reasons,
Let me tell you a little bit about me,
I was selling things online around 2012,
The TAOBAO platform in China,
For some reason my store was closed,
And then I wanted to open my own website store,
So that you don't have to be managed by someone else,
No longer afraid of being shut down,
And then I started looking for domain names,
Then he paid a lot of money for a domain name,
The mall was open,
But there was no traffic, no one was buying,
It lasted a year and the site went down,
But somebody came to me and asked for this domain name,
I ended up selling it for twice the purchase price,
And then I found out that domain names can make money this way,
And then I started investing in domain names

This is not the correct section but I started when I registered a domain for a start-up that failed & wanted to sell the name

For me there was no such story. I bought my first domain name with a solid intention to sell it for a profit. And I did it. I registered a domain name at Godaddy and listed it at Godaddy. Fortunately within a week time, I got an offer for $ 600 from Godaddy representative, I gladly accepted offer and pocketed a hefty profit. Greed, dedication and hardwork to earn extra money dragged me to this domain name business. My journalist instinct was a helping hand to select new names, thus I exploited my passion for writing to register new names.

Haha, you mean you registered the wrong domain name?
And then you want to sell it so you don't waste it?
And just recently started investing in domain names?

I started 6 months ago using some Black Friday Offers to handreg some domains.

The domains were awful. Porn and Trademarks.

I was lucky to find NP. The real essence and the true wisdom about domaining is here.

So I started to read, read, read and read.

And after that, a few more handregs. I was really lucky to sell 2 of them but I didn't understand why.

I am now in the third or fourth iteration...More readings and readings.

I don't like automated appraisals but I think there is an interesting potential in automate the valuation of the domains, so in the future I would like to create some automated scorings to value domains using machine learning / statistic models (it is my background in fact).

Let's see if I can achieve some interesting :)

I started looking at domaining as a side hustle after I registered a few for personal use. It appealed to me as I have always been a wordy. (Like foody but words) I found NP on Google and the rest is history.

I have a great grasp on the English language and there is still a huge learning curve/evolution with different stages. I just feel like I have a decent grasp on domaining now after 3.5 years. There are always things still left to learn probably always.
