Thoughts on deleted domains

[CustardTank]

Hi Guys,

I am looking to get into the domaining industry, as a hobby at first with the possibility of taking a more serious stance towards it.

I have been reading as many resources as I can and also scoping out potential domains and seeking advice on them.

I have been checking ExpiredDomains.net for deleted .com domains, but is the general consensus that it's very hard to find a winner on that list? If they have been checking the list when it drops every day, but as these are deleted domains that means that they have been through the "expiring stage" and no one has backordered them or snapped them up. Does this mean that the majority of them are worthless?

Can you turn a profit buying deleted domains or do you have to be extremely lucky?

Thanks in advance.

yes, most of them are stupidly registered names, some of them are not so bad names people tried to sell but could not and did not won't to pay another renewal, few of them are the real gems that people forget to renew - these cause a fears bidding war during drop-catching
