discuss Never sold a domain

[ImperiousDon]

I was hoping to sell quicksellout.com but I failed .

You've only been domaining for less than two weeks. It took me months before I got my first sale. Take the time to study hard and learn as much as possible. Don't hand reg. Just read about domains sales on the domain sales thread, analyze market trends on Namebio.com...watch all the DomainSherpa.com/interviews and save your money. You'll make a ton of mistakes but that is normal. Just because you don't sell a name doesn't mean you're a failure. It will take almost a year just to get acquainted with the whole notion of domain valuation in general so don't even sweat it. It's going to take time.


About quicksellout.com:

It's reg fee. Not sure what a quick sell out is, maybe your referring to liquidation? So don't even think about it anymore. Stick a $199 BIN on it and set it up for the Afternic premium network. At least it's in .com. If it was anything else it would have been better to grace delete and see if you could get a refund.


Good luck!

This is not a get rich quick industry, which many people think when they first start.......

@slader23 has given you some good sites to bookmark, also read as many threads in the beginner section as possible......

Good Luck.......Don't buy anymore domains for the next 30 days!

You're expecting too much too soon which has pretty much all been covered off by fellow members above. Take the advice.

Hello @ImperiousDon and welcome to NamePros!

As like @slader23 said, take your time firsr to study and learn things, at domain investing and investing to any kind of things, you can expect to make money immediately. You must know your product, domain or whatever you invest.

Slader give you great links to check and where you can learn. I made my first sale after 6 months, so this is waiting game. I suggest you to hold on now a moment, don't reg any domains, just read and learn what are typical mistakes for beginners and how you can avoid them.

Here at NamePros, you can find great deals, if you know what you are buying. When you are buying domain name, first trace down at NameBio.com does that keyword has any recorded sales. So, example if someone is selling GreatProperties.com, go to NameBio and track down first how many sales there are for Properties keyword and when Properties keyword is in the end. Then check out sales, where Great keyword is in the start.

You can check too, how many extensions is taken with those keywords (www.DotDB.com). And ALWAYS when you buy a domain name, ask for yourself - Would I use this domain for my business. If you are not sure, create a thread to the Appraisal section.

Here is some tips for you first.

analyze market trends on Namebio.com.

Yes, truly analyze market trends if you want to see where to spend your money.

For some people it takes years to build enough intuition to figure out what domains are sellable.

Stick to geo domains when first starting out, those are a little less likelier to go wrong with and easier to flip.

Sellout isn't really a sales term but this an example of why many non English speaking domainers fail at domaining finding popular tems and mixing with the wrong niche.
