Mistakes you made as a newbie

[Joseph David]

As a newbie in the domaining world. What mistakes have you made in regards to name registration or closing a deal or any other mistake you made generally. Let others learn from you.

The experts can also share some info, it will be appreciated.


- As for me I registered some crappy names. I hate seeing them in my portfolio.

The current situation is that manually registered domain names are difficult to sell at high prices,
The current market value of 4L.COM is very low,
In the long run, 4L is a very good choice

After a few more years, I've also figured out that most real estate agents are very cheap when it comes to their own marketing. We live and learn......[/QUOTE]

Registering 50 bad names in one day

Sad but totally hilarious!

It obviously doesn't apply to every real estate group, but in my experience the vast majority of the agents that I've spoken with in regards to domains seem to be operating on a minimal marketing budget. Now, that being said, I have had some success in selling real estate domains, but I've had other verticals perform much better.[/QUOTE]

Hey lee, I know I'm probably a competitor in this, but would you mind sharing insights into how to crack the real estate market? I've got 2 domains (totally worth it, I promise) that I need to offload, but only at the right price

I think my biggest mistake was getting too excited about small domain names that never went anywhere.
