How many domains do you register a month?

[groundctrl]

How many domains do you register a month? I mean register outright, not buy from someone else or something. I'm really curious on the buying trends of people in this forum, especially considering that Godaddy just reported registering 1,000,000 domains a month or something insane like that.

It is the first time I put the question like this myself. I looked at the past 2 moths data, and I can say that on average I register 35-40 domains, mainly LLLL.com 's. But I think this trend will slow down for me as I will focus more on quality than quantity.

for those that are registering a decent amount of names (25+ per month), which registrar are you using?

Ive been regging from Drop lists about 30 domains per month - this month is pretty slow because my source hasnt been updated lately.... I hope it comes back online - great resource...

I register over 1,000 domains per month for my clients, mainly at Moniker.com

There are plenty of people accumulating domains right now so the number quoted by Godaddy doesn't surprise me. They're the McDonalds of domain registrars in my opinion.

If I buy a name to flip it, I'll buy it at Godaddy since everyone and their brother has an account there. If I buy a name to develop or hold as a long term investment, it'll be reg'd at Moniker.com

It depends on how much spare cash I have, I would certainly register many more if I could but I also have to eat & live

I register a few odd names here and there. Lately, that's been picking up (as my sales plummet :hehe. I register most at NamePros or Namecheap. I'm taking a look at Moniker, though.

Since January, I've been going at about 15 per month. About 3-5 are for clients monthly.

I tend to buy at GoDaddy and NameCheap. Unless I am going for drops, then DomainSite, as they seem to have the fastest WhoIs updates.

it's the people who do 100+ a month i'm interested in... how do they find that many domains to reg?

 

[whitebark]

It's a secret - but many.

 

[moped]

I registered most of my domains in 2000 - 2002 since then I got side tracked developing websites, now I am back into domains and find good domains only rarely so only register 1 - 10 domains each month.

For me, it goes up & down every month. Seem to be doing between 8-15 per month

I normally register between 30 & 40 per month. They are all registered at Fabulous or Moniker unless the are intened for a quick flip, then I'll register with GoDaddy as it's easier because everyone has a GD account.

I don't know many people who reg more than 100 per month and are not buying some of them on behalf of clients or are engaged in tasting, typosquatting, or large scale speculation (examples: new extensions, current fads). Nowadays, it's pretty hard to find 100 "reg-worthy" .coms in a month, if you exclude the aforementioned methods.

I'd have to go with 26-50, more than 5 but usually not more than 15 per week.

have around 320 with Godaddy, 10-20 still at Register.com, a few at Moniker, some at ipower and less than 20 with Yahoo.

I'm moving all to Godaddy. I was buying them fron Yahoo and ipower for around $2.99 per at the beginning and found out there no good.

ipower at that time and may still have a different sign on and user for each name , that's rough.

that's what i figured. i'm not at all experienced in finding domains to reg, so i wondered how you could find so many.
