Section I
We see so many discussions about extensions. Which TLD is the best or which one is better and such.
I think people who raise these questions are focusing on the wrong point. Domain Investors are not selling extensions, we are selling domains, anything on the right & left of the dot should be our concern.
I understand why this is happening. Each investor have a different path while creating their portfolio. Some are heavily invested on a single TLD and expect profit on the extension they invested.
It is true that the extension matters, you need to understand each TLD`s position in the market and the trends for their end usage.
Take .Org and .Net as an example.
Most non-profit organizations prefer to have a website on .Org while very few prefer .Com
.Net makes perfect sense with tech companies yet the diversity of tech company websites might be totally different. .Com in this case is the most used TLD, and .IO is gaining popularity lately for this niche.
What about new gTLDs? There are so many extensions on new G`s and each TLD has their own niche or Not(.xyz)
There are new websites coming online with these extensions everyday. But personally, there are so many TLDs and investment patterns that I won`t apply while registering a new gTLD.
Again what is important is the domain name not the extension alone.
Section II
Another common mistake on domain investment and another disaster...
Please do not register a domain where you have no knowledge on that particular industry.
Crypto Currency Broker? Canadian Bourbon? These type of combinations are ridiculous.
Section III
Another threat for domain industry is Bitcoin and all the other 1000 crypto currencies, where the Market Cap is $153,523,996,593 as of today.
This is another speculative industry for investors and each day impatient domainers shifting from domaining to crypto currencies. As a result domain sales decrease.
Section IV
Another suggestion, do not take account on the sales reports that are not specifying the sale price or the domain itself. ($XXXX & 5 figure sale) Most of these reports are fake and pathetic.
Who make this reports can not even price their domains properly that`s why there is no specific sale price on this type of reports.
Don`t get fooled folks, don`t get fooled. This is a digital platform, most people are not using their identity at all.
Section V
Finally, what makes a domain a good domain is the capital it is raising annually .
The sale price doesn`t really matters.
See previous sales reports over $1 Million and go visit the websites to see if they are active or not, generating money or not.
Some of them are not active at all, so is it really the sale price that makes a domain a good domain?
Remember the sale price is an investment for the buyer and ROI is the key what we should be looking for.
