i want to purchase a domain on godaddy, i was told to enter a different billing region, does it means i cant buy by putting nigeria as my region?

After reading a whole lot about this domain biz, I'm about to reg my first domain name.
However, there is something I want to be clear about.
Can a hand reg keyword domain with 100k-1m global search volume bring in parking revenue considering is new, has no backlinks and pageRank?

Wow... Interesting!!! Most domainers place emphasis on those criterion like their domaining life depended on it.

What SET OF RULES do you use in choosing this business like domains, mind mentioning a few

I meant i couldn't find business-like domains on namecheap!

I am not saying those metrics are wrong or unimportant, but its just that we can't all be the same. To your question, we have about 39 factors we consider before deciding if a domain name is a good candidate for a business name. By business, the scope includes brick and mortar (physical) businesses, cyber businesses, and even blogs.

A few are basic common sense rules - no misspellings, simple, short (meaning not tooooo long), meaningful to the market, no unexpected meanings (you can suddenly find your nice domain have a 'hidden' sex word in it) etc.

Of course you need it to include industry keywords. If you want to start a dating service and you have a domain StartFlirting.com, doesn't it rock? I posted three domains a few days ago - startflirting.com, secretalarm.com and dailytradesignals.com. They were all available on the 9th. Few minutes later, two of them were gone, registered by some smart investors or users.

TheHairshop.com was just sold for $20,000. I am sure you see the point with business related domain names.

I am currently dueling with one dude from Asia, I noticed he was picking up .biz names which I was also interested in. That is his own strategy. He only does .biz and I can tell you he has a good cache of those. The problem is when someone finds a way of doing a thing and sells as a holy grail in ebooks, products etc. Then everyone picks on that track and beat it bare.

If you are a business lover, it won't be hard for you to spot and select business names.

Am not sure why Sedo blocked you. Try it again. Maybe you can create another gmail or so account, don't use proxy etc (not sure if that can be a problem), use a different browser from the one you used earlier on etc.

I can assure you that listing in Sedo or Flippa isn't a guarantee that you would get offers. If you can, post the domain name so we can know what the issue(s) are.

Maybe I will make a list of domain marketplaces, but if you have read this thread from the start (that's some task but it is worthwhile) you would see many. Namepros is another place - but as a new user on the site, I doubt if you can just post a domain.

Flippa options
1. Post the domain in classifieds - free
2. Post the domain as auction - $9
3. Domain is in classified, and you get an offer (even if it is $1 offer for it) - sell at that $1 or reject the $1 offer and state your offer; else you can then start an auction (free).

Hope that answers your question D.

Hi D, because of your keen interest in domaining, I will suggest you read this thread (at least some pages back), you will find most of what the great guys in here have said in relation to choosing domain names etc. No need for me to repeat it here.

I tried answering your other Q about Flippa.

lol... if I wanted it, I wouldn't drop it here bro. I dropped it for someone to buy and the day I dropped it was the same day the auction was ending... PLUS it had a possible end users that could have bought it. So if no one from here took action, not my fault.



I knew lots would ignore it sha. How u dey bro... i called u yesterday.

I concur. Broadness is key. Narrowness is trouble.

Furthermore, if I can't use the name personally for my project I won't buy it.

Good day gurus in the house. Please I have some questions about dynadot
1. What is the difference btw dynadot marketplace, expired auctions and backorder

2. Let assume I saw a domain that I like at dynadot marketplace I want to register it, can I register it with another Registrar or must it be dynadot.

3. From the second question above, if I decided to register the domain with dynadot, would I have to pay for both registration fee and renewal fee.

4. Where and when does paying renewal fee and registration fee for a domain comes in.

Oya, Up to my ogas in the house. Chibenze, cpriest, iyke ND 2sex.

God bless you as you answer.

Thanks
