Check it out at

As a whole or a single domain that is worth more than say 500 bucks
Thanks guys

I agree with sentiment to focus on a smaller number to start out with, although there are a number that I think have potential. I don't know the CBD/canna at all so won't comment on any of those.

• I like TrendingSpy (com) as a name for a consultant in the trends area. I don't know exactly how I would try to reach end users, but the name to me is fresh and interesting.
• I like Bridge360 (online) for engineering or perhaps 3D rendering firm or reference site.
• hems (online) is short and catchy for fashion, model, etc. I would try to get it noticed, as I think that this is a niche where they might be more open to new extensions.
• GinnKing (com) would not have huge number of buyers, but has potential.
• MyAncestry (online) possibly good. It is descriptive. Not sure if any TM issues, but it is a generic word and when used with My and online. I would probably not try outbound, simply list it at a reasonable price.
• FoodFest360 (com) I find interesting although not sure how many potential end users might go with it. I would at least try to get it in front of some. It feels fresh and interesting to me.
• I don't think it would go for a big price, but someone might want to create a reference or educational site around spaceflight (online). I own SolarSystem (online) in a similar niche.
• There was a discussion earlier on CrabDiner (com) - there are potential end users and the name is descriptive and short.

Michael Cyger talked about portfolio cleaning for everyone at NamesCon. Evaluate at least annually your portfolio deciding what to keep. By focussing on fewer domains you can do a better job selling them. He personally has 37 domain names currently.

I would, if you have not already, analyze each name, as well as comments you receive here and before, and divide your names into three groups. Identify about 10 that you feel most positive about and concentrate on getting those noticed. Also identify some that you don't feel have much potential and offer them at fire sale prices to try to recoup the fees. For the middle group, if it was mine, I would price much lower, and hope to sell enough to cover renewal on the ones you keep. Best off luck with them.

Great strategy and one more easily adopted after a few months in the business. In fact, doing that would be a learning experience in itself.

More options anyone ?

Focus on quality, not quantity.

What people here are trying to say is that your portfolio is worth

meaning...that they wouldn't take it for free. That it's a liability not an asset. That's what they mean when they write

Hello, I really don't see a domain I would pay for, much less renew in the entire lot.

I just don't see anything worth holding on to.

I agree. Not trying to be insulting, not trying to sugar coat.

I agree.

No need for a reply like that is there. Your a big mouth who wouldn't dare say that to me in person. It's always YOU that writes the nasty negative stuff. Would love to meet you some day !

By the way guys, go look at some of the crap on he's site

 

[xynames]

Why would you think that anyone's opinion of your portfolio would change in person? It just goes to show that you keep badgering people hoping that someone, somewhere will tell you that your portfolio is worth holding on to. Do you want flattery, or truth?

I don't wanna kill you, I wanna help you.

Our suggestion: let the portfolio go, REDO FROM START, save yourself some money on renewal fees of unsaleable domains.

If our help's not appreciated, lotsa luck.

Sorry mate, honestly you are in no position to valuate nor criticize others' domains.

You could do it if you were a domain expert with a proven successful sale records. But you are not, and as we just agreed here in this thread your domains are mostly shit. Seems you are good guy and most people here sympathize you, so listen their advice and shut up meanwhile. We'll listen to your appraisals when your sales storm Namebio tops, like Xynames' ones.

Best of luck.

So you guys are saying no one would take any of these off me for FREE !

You are either deluded of just being nasty for the sake of it

 

[MasterOfMyDomains]

I wouldnt take any for free. Dropping much better names than these.
I still book garbage, just not as often.
If you hadnt been such an asshole to people like mr. berryhill i would give you 10 or so
All 2 word, very relevant keywords
The domain space is so full of trash, i see basically holding pat the next year until you knoobs get wiped out by renewals and lack of sales, and this space somewhat returns to normal.

If you had bought 2 good names instead of 100 poor quality names, things would be looking up. Your looking down, down step in what you see

Are the only three names here that mean something. All other names don't even mean anything! So you are the one who is heavily deluded here.

So I have 3 domains that maybe have a little potential. That's better than zero. Thanks for the feedback

 

[Laguna]

Well thanks to the nasty @xynames I've decided to quit domaining and do something else.
So thanks for your unprofessionalism dude. Let's hope karma pays you a visit.
Would just also like to say a big thank you to @Bob Hawkes for he's kindness and feedback. A true Gentleman.
Anyway that's me done
Good bye and good luck

 

[Bob Hawkes]

It is of course your decision and I respect whatever you decide, @Lagunaboy. I might suggest that you consider the following though. Why not take a week or two break from domaining. Don't consider registering any names, don't post, don't even read NPs. If at that time, you don't have a change of heart then it perhaps is right decision to quit. I have enjoyed getting to know you, and the very best whatever you decide.

Oh yeah, let's blame others. This snowflakes generation.....

Remember: the majority of domainers are losing money. It's more difficult than people think.
While everybody would rather say something nice, they would be doing you a disservice by not being upfront.
You need to change attitude or you won't last long in this business.

I am not saying you are never going to sell a domain name. You probably will. But the sales will not offset the acquisition and renewal fees so you'll still be in the red. So domainers like to talk about the sales and the ROI but overall the balance sheets generally don't look rosy.

I don't understand why you are so infatuated with these domains. What you like and what end users want are two different things. Everybody can register some domains like you did. Wait until renewal time and you'll see how sexy and expensive these names are. Hopefully you will realize sooner
Now it's not like everybody is doing fine and you are the exception, the majority of domainers are not attaining profitability and will eventually drop out. If it were easy everybody would be doing it.
A business can fail for many reasons but it does not fail because of the naysayers.
