discuss How much domains You got ?

[Donmarick]

Maybe some members want to share their stats of portfolio and how much they earn on domains ?
I will start:
Number of domains: 79
month revenue: 90$
source: ads on developed part of domains.

How many domains is more sound than how much domains!
Just a thought..

 

[Donmarick]

Yeah my fault too late for edit

I am trying to keep my portfolio at 500 names, but I will try to get it up to 1000 in 2020. I can make a living from my domaining.

 

[Donmarick]

Thank You for share @Fancy.domains You only keep them and sell or develop ? How You earn on them ? It's pretty nice number.

About 99% are up for sale via my own landing pages and various market platforms.

About 1% are developed or under development.

You can definitely have too many to manage this can be a big mistake even with great names. You still have to manage your time. Revenue can be a waste of time unless you have enough traffic in same niche to justify a regular payment from sponsors. I have over 500 domains.

Wow! That was a huge drop. Presumably getting rid of the dross? Strange. I can never find that much dross. This is not a comment of your or my portfolios. It's the fact I like most of my domains, and cannot decide which is the dross or not. Probably the 10% which are not .com could be considered dross, en-masse

I do drop domains every month. But I also re-invest any income into more domains.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

I always rotate my portfolio according to my current budget and focus...

I always rotate my portfolio... just routine...

If you rotate. Wouldn't the volume not fluctuate wildly. A 50% drop in 6 months is more than just rotation. Or will you have 6k again in another 6 months?

Just edited above: according to my current budget and focus...

Domaining is a volume game as well...
Not just quality matters in terms of regular sales.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

will you have 6k again in another 6 months?

I will have again If necessary for me... and if I have time and health...

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

p.s. It was always interesting for me what is my maximum, and now I know it.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

I also re-invest any income into more domains.

After ~11 years of domaining I don't think that 100% reinvesting into domains (only) is a good way.

Well that's about the number of years I've been in this business too. But it's probably only the last 7-8 years that I've been trying hard to grow in size, and re-investing all of my sales revenues. hopefully in better quality names. The proof will be if we sell more domains for more revenue every year. Which are erratic., year-on-year. For sure. But, I THINK, I'm moving forward. At least.

Nowadays, when aftermarket is continiously trending down, such strategy is dangerous...
The more domains - the more time and health you must burn... up to level where personal life will disappear at all.
That's why other reinvest directions should be considered also.

I hear what you are saying. For sure.

 

[Keral_Patel]

71 and going down to 30 maybe.

I am just shifting my focus onto other businesses that's why.

Other than that domains will be my favorite things and I will keep loving them always.

And how many domains you've got?

 

[AbdulBasit.com]

I've just reached 2700 domains this month.

 

[NYJimbo]

Was heading up towards 1,000 but now am killing off older junk and buying better .coms, so trying to keep it around 700. Getting tired of low to mid $xxx sales all the time and want to start seeing $xxxx. I decided to not post any sales below $xxxx this year and of course everything I am selling now is low to mid $xxx so far.

 

[J Sokol]

I'm 9 months into domaining and have about 60 domains. Income? I'm still trying to cross over to profit status, which I can do with one decent sale.

I only have less than a hundred.

How do you guys manage 1000s of domains? spreadsheet or software?
The amount of work to list them on various marketplaces is crazy.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

I don't list them.
ParkingCrew and Bodis are enough for me.

And no any special software.
