advice Is Buying lot of hand reg Casino domains is good idea?

[Mohammed Azheruddin]

Hi

Frankly speaking when a domainer hand reg a domain he has so much of expectations from the idea he created . 30% chances are he gets 100% returns but maximum of the handreg are just dropped for no value

Now a days I have more interest in registering the Casino+Keywords domains .

I have seen the nambio data also and little impress with the data .

do you think buying or hand reg more domains with one niche is helpful ?

or is it a good strategy to buy a 10 domain of same niche and have a $XXX sales of min three of them.??

any suggestions or lesson learnt from your past experiences then you can share me to educate .

Thanks

Azher

If you have to ask the question, the answer is probably "no". There are a number of regulations surrounding casino promotions, and it is not an easy industry to promote. Blackjack, poker, slots, roulette, craps etc. all have different type of players.

Would you be buying for revenue of for short term profit?

Short time profit .

No

Don't do it. Here is a free template that I used to start to put together a site on one of my casino domains.
What Slots
I've put a few of my own links on there, but most of it is unchanged content provided by the template designer. If you feel confident enough to customise a site like that, and to promote it enough to build some traffic, then you might make some money, but it won't be a quick profit.

You've reminded me that I must do some work on this.

@kufffy are you making anything from that or just building traffic to sell the domain?

This is kind of a blanket statement, but handregs are seldom profitable unless you are experienced. Usually anything that is still available for $10 doesn't qualify for a quick (or slow) flip.

 

[sofiapartner]

IMHO - No.

Hard to think there would be many good casino based hand regs to be had, Don't reg crap just for the sale of it.

I'm a long way from having a viable site there. When I picked it up, I anticipated that it would take up to two years for the site to start to produce an income stream. I could shorten that if I dedicated a load of time to it, but at the moment, I'm easing myself back into the casino world. I did well about 10 years ago, but an enormous amount has changed since then, and I'm having to relearn how to promote the industry. Even the sponsors have changed. One that was paying me $2,000 to $3,000 per month has been taken over, and I gather that it now has a reputation for not paying affiliates. Others require you to send a minimum number of new depositing accounts every month, and that doesn't help when you are re-starting. One of the things that I like about the "new" industry is that a lot of payments are made in Bitcoin.

This is probably particularly true of Casino names. The casino world is pretty small, and most affiliates tend to discuss the industry on a variety of forum boards. The availablity of a decent revenue generating name is likely to be noticed before it becomes generally available. Names and sites are bought for their potential to generate new depositing players, and prices reflect this. Anything that is available for reg fee is either toxic, or going to need a fair bit of work to generate 1,000 signups a month. There is quite a difference between the profitability of various player categories as well. I gather it is easier to pick up new poker players, but slots players are more profitable.

Another thing to consider is Google traffic. If your name is toxic, then you've got some work to do to sanitise it. The What slots name I picked up came from expired domains, and I think I got it within the first 10 minutes of the new list creation, but it had already been through the prelims, and been passed over by the professionals. It ticked a few boxes for me though, and I thought it would be a good name with which to experiment. The other thing that I am not doing correctly is to use a free casino template. This means that there will be a large number of similar sites on the net, and Google is not going to get excited by it unless I do some heavy customising.

In short, I've put under $20 into an investment that will probably take up to two years to show a return. Selling the name now is unlikely to show an acceptable return.

Another category to consider is cross-over names. Changing a name from casino promotion to mainstream or vice-versa. In my opinion it's easier to use a mainstream name to promote a casino, and maybe add a different twist to surfer information, than it is to sanitise a casino name for mainstream use. I've just put a bid on a mainstream name that could provide an interesting news source for casino players, I'll let you know how it goes.

Neither of these categories are suitable for quick flips in my opinion. If you do make a sale, then you've probably given away most of the profit.

Thanks for the info mate. I don't have many of them but was thinking of putting a website on casinodownloadsfree.com - not really much else I can do with it.

i don't think 30% turn on hand reg names is realistic - industry average is 2.5% - 3% with a good/great portfolio.

also, chances are - if they are still available to reg, there's a reason for that

I think I would put a load of thumbnails and links to free slots trials. I don't think you will pick up enough depositors to make any money, but if it starts to build, then maybe you could start using your own affiliate links. In the meantime you could promote some Bitcoin mixers or ICOs to earn a bit of cash.

I really need to develop a bit more self-control.

This thread revived my interest in acquiring new casino players, so I thought I would look for some possible names in the domain silt. One that I picked up is PopArcades.com , and this is really a bit of a reach. The idea is to discuss the fact that retro gaming and "fruities" seem to be on the increase, but the old mom-and-pop arcades are declining. If I can attract some surfers to the site, then I can offer some online experiences to them.

The keyphrase is not the best possible, obviously "retro arcades" would be much better. That is available for a purchase price of around $5,000, and that type of investment is difficult to justify for a feeder site. PopArcades.com probably has a resale value of about $10-$25 in my estimation, although Estibot values it at $140 for food/beverage promotion. It's value to me lies in its potential for traffic harvesting. (assuming I do the work to build the site ).
