Yes aftermarket. Hand reging is for seasoned pro's. All the obvious stuff went years ago.

You should definitely buy a good name and brand it. Spend $1400 on a quality name and then $100 on a Wordpress template, and make something good where you can make the money back, and then sell it later on.

It's very easy to burn money in the beginning when you're understanding this industry. If I could hit the reset button and start over this would be my approach.

buy 10 "GOOD" brandable marketplace names that are already approved for $300. If you sell one @ $1,500 it covers your initial investment. Worse case scenario you could resell at initial cost to recoup investment.

buy 25 well researched handregs for $250. Reg 5-10 good GEO domains and try to sell at least one @ $250 in the beginning to recoup initial cost.

buy one well researched domain from Namejet for $150. Worse case resell at initial cost.

buy one well researched domain from Namejet for $300. Worse case resell at initial cost.

buy one well researched domain from Namejet for $500 Worse case resell at initial cost.



Spreading out your investment is the best thing you can do. Spread out correctly and you can always get back your investment. If you do good research and don't buy junk I can guarantee you will make money.

After lots of research and watching the market as recommended...

Buy quality two word .com, four letter .com and a couple 5-7 letter pronounceable .coms

If any $ left reg a few 5L chips before the buyout and maybe reg a new g if you find one that makes sense, most of the ones that do won't be available at a regular registration rate but you may think up a winner.

I think if you stick to some decent 2 word brandables and leave the chips in the bag for now you will do ok.

I would use most of that $1500 to buy quality two-word.com(s). Chips will take longer to grow in value in my opinion, whereas two-words have greater upside.

Let me guess what NNNN.com it was:

N4N0.com?

Beware of Premium names / claims of premium till you look it up on many sites!
I would buy in bulk. And it saves registering too many names! :D auction spares $1
You can then focus on your new domains and get seller ratings! I'm changing my approach now and PM if you want to know what I've got!

Do nothing. You have $1500 with you. Rinse and Repeat.

You still have $1500 with you. :)

One of my nice domains says:
Buy Flip Repeat (.com)
Do that :)

Or you should invest $1500.00 in actual physical gold. Always a good investment.
