How many domains in YOUR portfolio...?

[Mike]

Not sure if a thread like this has been started in the past; i thought it would be interesting to know how many domains the average NPer has in a portfolio, if there are times when

- you sell more than you buy (seasonal?)
- buy more than you sell (seasonal?)
- just collect or develop
- etc.

practically anything related to quantity and eventually quality of domains in one's portfolio.

To start the thread of: i currently have about 35, healthy mix of .com/.net/.vg and 1x cc

Currently just collecting and cash parking with practically zero success, except one domain that is under development for a financial forum: IntelBank - The Forum For Intelligent Banking

I certainly buy more than i should with not enough sales, simply 'cause i'd like to see whether they increase in value before i convince myself that its the right time to sell.

I have about 10-13 domains at any point. I buy about 2 a month on average I would say.

TOO MANY, I have about just under 1K domains in total. I have decided to lighten the load as it is too much to maintain for me

@ 250

 

[Gene]

All of them!


Seriously, around 1,250

I buy more than I sell (but make substantially more than I invest). Park them and develop as time permits.

95% .COMs

170 At the Moment

 

[DropLister]

I currently own 40 names or so. 1.cc, few orgs nets coms and us. And the oscasional .biz

 

[chrisxx]

I got about 20 domains, some of them are developed.

 

[mis_chiff]

I think I've finally broke the 100 mark!
Or at least very close to it!
Need to do an inventory soon :D
Love to sell some - but developing seems easier

 

[midnight251]

I've got about 30-35. I have about 12 coming up for renewal, and will probably let 4 or 5 drop, usual rookie mistakes.

 

[hjordis]

Almost 100.

Is domaining your job? It is something i want to do as a living, that being the reason i asked. I would love to have a 1250 name portfolio.

 

[Coopey]

122.

I accidently let a 'too develop' one drop otherwise it would've been a cool 123.

 

[Barrucadu]

I have about 5 - I only buy a domain if I plan to develop it.

No, it's just one facet of my overall Internet business. The names pay for themselves with PPC, so it's not a big deal to pay the renewals. Buy a few at a time, sell them as you can, keep reinvesting the profit back into more names and park them well so they pay for themselves (actually, 10% of the names pay for the entire portfolio). Before you know it you'll have a large portfolio.

Right around 500 names atm.

The list grows quickly. :tu:

 

[dotnom]

Around 400-450 now

I have around 30. You can't expect that much from a college student.
