Wholeheartedly agree there.

It doesn't take much research through the forum to find out what sells and what kind of domains are considered valuable.

There has to be some method to buying a domain rather than buying what's available thinking it *might* sell.

love it! especially this part:

I feel really bad when people register terrible names

Especially the ones that tell me my name isn't worth $15, but theirs is not even worth the electricity that it takes to save that tiny bit of data that identifies them as the owner.

Read every forum thread (right here on NamePros) you can, learn what is a good name and what isn't and why.

This post is so correct.
If any newbee like me is reading this. please do some research on whatever domain you trying to buy.
Me myself have given away so much of money to crappy domains.
Always follow some rules which i am doing so far.
for registering new domain for resell
- Buy .Com's
- Check in google how much results do that particular keyword returns.
- Check in Google adwords how much searches it has every month.
- Ask some expert by pm's and get your domains appraised.
- Use discount coupons!!! ( which i never knew existed until after i brought some 10 very crappy domains)

For parking domains
- Read the namepros thread about parking. it has help me alot.
- Check all the stats
- Check for backlinks and verify them. Quality backlink are more important than quantity.
- Check CPC
- Check Web histroy

i am not the expert but i have learned how not to spend money on crap. You can see my signature how crappy my domains are.

You have to admit though, it's kind of fun to hear people's reasoning behind why their domains are valuable.

"My domain is sokool2323.com. What do you mean it's not great? It's brandable 'cause cool is spelling with a k. So unique right? Plus there are REPEATING numbers. Yes, I said REPEATING! I'm willing to sell this gem of a domain for 500 dollars although I really should keep it for myself since it's just that amazing."

Seems legit.

if you have to explain why your domain is good its most likely worthless

:talk:


here's a brief poem:

the later you get into the game,

the harder it is, to sell crappy names.

why?


because an old timer could reg crap in 2000

which would make that name 14 yrs old now.

and since many newbie's think age equals value


a lot of crap gets resold





so the lesson is:


if you reg crap today, renew it for 10 yrs.

It's true, the good names sell for themselves and they need no explaining. Because the end users come to you.

...please be so kind as to not Bogart the popcorn. Pass it around, I' buy the next box!...

*** ooohhhhh...I was missing you 4pm!!!
and you should stop letting Alice eat all that popcorn! ***

I agree that people register bad names ( we know we all do and keep doing that ) but it's also true that when I read " people register bad names " behind those words there is a domainer who thinks his/her names are better..which is not necessarily true.

Personally I try not to judge and not to be arrogant telling people their domains are crap as it's not constructive. We all have been told some of our names were crap and we sold them for a decent price and we all told people some of their names were bad and they sold them for a nice profit...It's the same movie playing and playing again...and it's getting a bit boring

If you've never regged a bad name, you have never learned a lesson.

[urlurl]

I really bite my tongue sometimes, especially in the appraisal section!

there are some there that are so bad I have refrained from posting any view to avoid embarrassing the poor poster, lol

and its always from someone who just reg'd a name a few days ago.

and yes, we do check to see if your crap name is a hand reg.

and 99.99% of the time the name ins't worth even that

Case in point. I was selling Blackberry/ /Kush (c0m) today, cold calling potential clients (always fun)

..hey, i got an email from you with that offering today ..not sure what made you think i could be interested since i hardly know what "Blackberry Kush" is, but it's ok with me, no problem

there was a link to ebay listing with $4,500 starting bid.
sorry, i had to pass on, maybe next time... just wanted to save you some $$ in case you were going to call me too

Just handreged SomePeopleRegisterBadNames.com couldn't believe it was available, I used a code so it was only 1.99 how can you possibly go wrong? gonna check now if its available in .biz .info and the 900+ other gld's, I wont be surprised if the domain goes viral and a big company tries to buy me out, maybe even google or yahoo, there might even be a bidding war.

At this time im just gonna hold on to it as it will only go up in value.
