How to buy and sell?!?!

[sobeman88]

Has anybody had any good sales from buying expiring domains off of Godaddy? And then selling them real quick for a huge gain!

Please post your success! :D

The thing with Go Daddy expiring domains is there are a few gems in there, but a hell of a lot of crap. You will of course find a LOT of junk domains being sold for $100+ which are next to useless so you have to be prepared for that.

I figure if I get a good one within 10,000 results or 20 pages I am doing okay

It all depends on how patient you are

For example, right now on the first page of the auctions you will see fightingcellulite.com, this is quite a good prospect with the bid at just $10 but I expect it to go upwards to around $100-150 by biddings end.

You also have appappy.com which I wouldn't rate as being worth 100th of its asking price of $19,200. Go figure.

Haha yeah true man. What I dont get is when I look at the expiring auctions, some domains have really good traffic but a DUM name. Why is this?

Facebook and Twitter.

If you have a group with thousands of members you can throw a link out to them all and some will go there, it is junk traffic and not worth a damn thing but it does have the effect of making a domain look like it gets a lot of traffic.

99% of people tend to ignore these traffic stats but we were all newbies at one point and more than likely got took in by this most simple of scams lol

Really?? Well i never fell for this. But I think most people do. Look at the auctions on Godaddy!

People can easily do what you said or use programs and hacks.

So basically you can pick up a good domain name that has zero traffic??

I look through them a lot, you can actually get one right now with the buy option called acnechocolate>com

It has a small search of 260 exacts per month with broad search approaching 10,000, but only 21,000 pages of competition, for the auction price of under $5 it is worth a punt at the very least

You do have to go through a LOT though, but it is possible to pick up development gems if you have an hour to spare.

Here is the link to it if you are interested
