advice Some things new domainers should consider

[JudgeMind]

Before hand registering any domain names you should ask yourself these questions:

1. Would I name my business or product this

2. Am I confident enough in the quality of this name to pay the renewal fee or to purchase a transfer to another registrar

3. Are there similar domains that have sold

4. If I spend an extra $10-$20 could I get a better name than this one

5. Are there any registered trademarks that registering this domain name would infringe upon.

follow this model when starting out and you will be ahead of the game.

cheers

p.s - feel free to add to this list. Make your own list and follow it strictly. Once you discover the strategy that works best for you fine tune it and you will be successful

I am less than one year & i never had something except hand reged. most are .com.

I sold many but none more than 60 usd . sold domains are all in com like hempsyringe, casinovascotia,damnfuckinghot,chinaisthefuture,rayslt,cbdyahoo,customizedsmartphone,pukila, spacbdoil.

Now i have some but will not sell for so small amount. like unsmartness,voicetrick, xermany(com & de) ,be8ing, ,tracyaccidentattorney,tropicalcanada,co-defi,subsidizedinsurance.

But the domain i hand reged but will hold upto 5 or 10 years renewal are defi.es,menaairlines,taxiairlines


in com.

Now still i am only interested in hand reg ... may be i dont have money enough to buy good things.

Wow.

This has been painful to read.

I’m extremely guilty for hand regs.

I have sold a couple - but it got way out of hand.

I’m now at a point where i have no idea if I should renew or not.

Too many to decide. Too many to not want to drop. Irresponsible - yes!

So I’m throwing out a lifeline here.

Who’s willing to take a look at 1k domains, and give me some honest (painful) feedback??

So i can get on the right track.

(Even as a millennial)

Im ready to take a beating.
Seriously...

Who knows....

You could be making my family’s Xmas next year a decent one.

Peace out

I’ll have a look for you. PM me your list or a link

Is this automated appraisal correct?

Just because an automated valuation tool spits out a value doesn't mean your hand reg is worth that number.

It may be above or below. Much more research is to be done by you

I would never follow an automated valuation tool. Godaddy appraised a name this year for $3800 and it was sold for $27,500. It’s best to compare to other sales and then set a price you feel is fair but market value or just above.
