Ok. IMHO, I'd advise you go through the thread once more, at least. Before you proceed with whatever you have in mind.

But as for the names up there, kindly delete them ASAP for your own good and sanity, they aren't good enough. You have little to nothing to lose, cos I'm sure they didn't cost more than $10 altogether. Don't get carried away by the views. Most at times, they don't amount to sales.. not even in this case.

Still on it, it is advisable to register only one word in the XYZ extension, or at most two strong words, which I'm quite sure most have been taken.

EG:

Light(.xyz) is a very strong word but I don't think it would be available.

Also, TheLight(.xyz) is a good example of two strong words.


But for now, you ought to focus on the dot (.)com extension until you have a good grasp of how domaining works.


This is my little contribution. Gracias.

He should not delete if he cannot get refund. Who knows, he may sell any of them before the next renewal. He can go to his account and disable auto renewal if necessary.

Amen
Is there a way to make it permanent?

Yes, after setting the filters, go ahead and save it.

Hi ideaspro. I'm a newbie in domaining..

Check my signature for my WhatsApp number and reach out to me.

maaji:
Thank you so much therealmcCain. First time someone is attending to my fustration (apart from Ideaspros. he has been a blesssing. i would have quitted a long time but his encouagement that i pusheed further) . please i will be detailed here. please everyone should contribute to this including the bosses here.

As for your questions here are my answers

1. if given the funds i will register some names while some i wont.

A. locksmithcoralspring.com(expired)-- i made a grave mistake with this one. it should be coral springs not coralm spring. i goofed up big time so i dint bother to outbond this domain. So NO, i wont register this if i had the chance. i should have checked for spellings of any city word first.

B. Junkcarbuy.com(expired)--- Already ideaspro has scrutinized this for me. he said it should have been junkcarbuyer.com which he was absolutely right. so if i had the chance again i wont register it.

C. Columbuscontructioncompany.com(handreg)--- i saw someone in this thread sold dallasconstructioncompany.com I also checked dan.com to check for related domains (learnt it from ikhalifahs blog), and no related domains so i bought it hoping for a sale, so if i had the chance to buy this again then Yes, i would.(please this is based on what i have read on the entire thread. i know am in no position to say or argue that i bought the right domain).

D. Orlandohousesale.com(expired)-- i would probabaly say a Yes(based on what i was taught) to this because its a combination of city+ a service (baesed on my knowledge and training i had. i also checked for endusers and i saw upto 20 endusers

E. Dryerandventcleaning.com, lawntreeservice.com,landscapingandfencing.com,landscappingtreeservice.com, Paintingandrefinishing.com,( all expired) I would say A very big wonderful NO to these.Infact NO, NO NO and NO. this is because in as much as they are Exact match domains and keyword rich, they are not niches that sells. i have never seen past sale on these niches. fewer end user. i bought it because they are EMD domains and it will appeal to endusers.

F. Hendesonvilleplumbing.com--NO. Hendesonville is a small poplulation. Some endusers dont base solely in hendersonville. so few plumbers in the city. some endusers main service area is a bigger city close to hendesonville so each time i search for endusers i end up with endusers from other cities also serving hendersonville.

G. Chicagobuildingcontractor, Nycityroofincontractor (hand reg)-- i will say YES to this (all factors remain constant), because i have seen related sales to this in namepros and this nairaland. i have a large inventory of keywords. almost 400 keywords and past sales.

H. nycitymanagedit.com, miamiflmanagedit.com,greaterorlandomanagedit.com(all handreg)-- i bought it because i saw someone recently sold riversidemanagedit and greaterbostonmanagedit so i gave it a shot. it has alot of endusers too

I. Nycitylocksmith.com(handreg)-- YES (based on my knowlwdge) i taught i hit a jackpot when i found out that this domain is unregistered because locksmith is a common and selling keyword and newyork is a large city. but nothing came out of this.

i forgot to mention that all my domains are priced $249!!!

2. The kinds of names i will register
houstonmanagedit.com
denverpressurewashing.com
jacksonvilleflowerdelivery.com
austingplumber.com
newyorksurgeon.com
tamparealestateagent.com

Thats if they are handreg but if they are expires i will make sure cpc is $1 and above using expired domains search filters.( learnt this in iykes class and this thread)


3. for time sake let me give examples of geo, EMD and brandables
geo domain---tampametalroof, houstoncxoncretecontarctor
EMD-lawntreeservice.com,qualitysolarservices,homecleaning.com
brandables-- google, apple, amazon, etc.

4. I Swear i dont have that passion. infact i useed paid service mailtrack.io to send emails in form of mail merge. i tried to sit 5 hours doing outbonding but i had a problem, i later had swollen legs due to my obessed nature. so i used mail merge to send them and am sure they are recieving them thats why i got a few replies



please every one, i know its not easy buy pls attend to me abeg.

@Maaji, your determination is the secret key to your eventual success. Don't give up. Never! Today, all I need is a laptop, smartphone and an internet connection to survive. It's a good thing we master this game, okay?

First, you may have to unlearn some things clogging the brain. Next, don't register a new domain (whether brandable, EMD or Geo) without establishing strong buyers for the domain.

Sometimes, with due diligence, I can buy a domain name with only one potential buyer who has a lot of competitors. When I pitch the domain name and he refuses, I project the "fear" psychology that if you don't buy, your competitors may beat you to the game and use it against you. In other words, you must be convinced there is market or buyers before you create a product which is the domain name now.

Nobody is keen about pitching and spending money. Continue to do follow up but give a break where necessary. Like I told you create several email IDs representing different marketers in your company. Use them to pitch your domain names at various times with different wordings.

Read, study and learn. The more you learn, the more you discover the little you know.

For the rest, we'll work from the WhatsApp platform.

Based on the headline, I think Mastercard will still work.

I hope so and let's keep our fingers crossed. Our leaders, I call them evil cabals, have the knife and the yam tuber. Let them continue to cut the yam to any size they like. But when the inevitable revolution comes, they and their wards may not be able to escape the death hammer that will follow. They are just using Nigerians to play dice.

How to Sell Your First Domain Name

The first step to selling your domain is buying or registering a good domain name. So, you’ve to know what makes up a good domain. Here are some of them.

-Short, less than 10 characters is okay but less than seven characters is better.
-No trademark or copyright infringement
-Has commercial value and development potential
-Easy to spell, type and pronounce
-No hyphen or random numbers
-Brandable
-Descriptive
-Memorable
-Age of domain name
-Authority backlinks
-And more

In today’s competitive domain business marketplace, it’s pretty difficult finding a name that has all the above characteristics but the more a domain possesses them, the merrier.

Also, knowing the type of domain name to buy or hand register is very crucial to your success. You must get into the head of your potential end users and buyers to know what will make them open their wallet.

At the moment, Geo domains have been flogged to death. Finding good ones are like looking for a needle in a haystack except you’ve the uncanny ability to research obscure but profitable niche markets. For a lot of expert affiliate marketers or internet marketers who buy and sell domain names, this will be easy to research and find.

This is my advice for beginners and newbies who may be finding it hard to sell a domain name. If you want to register a domain in the geo space, first make sure there are at least 20 potential end users with their email addresses you can market to.

Statistically, in online marketing sphere, you’ve to look for one percent conversion rate for every 100 prospects you’re able to reach out to. It means having 100 and above email IDs is the best assurance of making a sale. But it is not always the case as there is exception to the rule.

Exact Match Domain (EMD)

The best domain names that sell fast are EMDs in profitable niches and have 10 and above PPC (pay per click) advertisers. If an EMD has $1 and above CPC (cost per click) and average monthly search volume of 1,000 and above, you’ve a gem you can make money online from.

You may be able to research, find and buy just 2 to 3 domain names in a month but you’re sure to sell them. Besides, you’ve wider market to reach out to unlike Geo domain which is localized.

Generic Product or Service Domain Names

In another breadth, generic product domain names are easy to sell too. These are domain names that describe a product, e.g. baby shower, shower tray, etc. If you cannot get BabyShower.com, you can check CheapBabyShower.com.

In short, I just checked the above domain names, the former was registered in 1999 while the latter was just registered in March 2022. As a digital marketer, I was actually looking at this niche market to build Amazon affiliate website.

You must be careful to check for trademark issues in order to avoid cease and desist law suits when working in the product domain market.

Where to Find Your Potential Buyers

The truth is that with Google.com, you don’t have any problem finding a potential buyer. All you’ve to do is include your keyword in quotation marks and begin to visit websites that mentioned your keyword. You can also streamline your search to social media sites like Facebook.com, Instagram.com, LinkedIn.com, Pinterest.com, etc by using Google search operators like

“cheap baby shower” site:facebook.com

Any commercial web page using your keyword as an online marketing strategy with 100 likes and above should be a high target to market to.

In conclusion, making money online consistently is about reading, studying and learning with focus. Over time, you’ll be able to develop your own strategy which becomes your proprietary system. Sincerely, not everything can be taught. That is why coca cola refused to release their formula to the public domain.

Bottom line: Always have a list of at least 10 strong and potential buyers before you register a domain. You may lose some domain names to fellow domainers in the process but a sale is more important to you. As much as I know, the sky is big and wide enough for all the birds to fly.

You’ll succeed and make money online.

I saw that too but I'm hoping it won't be implemented. Paying 710 per dollar is not fun.

You're right. N710 to a dollar is not a joke.

therealMcCain:
Thanks for pointing that out, yes you are to list below 40% of the retail BIN price. I also forgot to mention that there is a 5% SH fee for names sold on the wholesale market.

Thanks for the confirmation. God bless.

I used to have a verve and visa card for my fidelity account before I blocked them. If GT still allows $100 spending and they offer Visa card in addition to master that will be a good one.

I think naira Visa card will cease to function as from August 1.

Votumejero:
If you cannot cope with the negative outcomes of domaining, please for your sanity, find something else to do. I mean well when I say this.

I find domaining fulfilling even though I'm yet to get the desired outcome, yet I love it still. Sometimes I get depressed, but I know the best way to handle mine.

Find what works for you in domaining, find a working pattern, iterate and innovate when necessary.

My pal, the truth is that everything in life has negative outcomes. It's our determination and resilience that separate the successful and the failures.

So, we should be prepared to face negative outcomes which help e eryone to accelerate and ascend.

therealMcCain:
You
1. SH Marketplace
Its a backend marketplace available on Squadhelp only to domain sellers who are registered on the platform. you can list your domains there at wholesale price. For SH domain owned names you cant list the name more than $50 while for your own names, there is no limit.

while the names are listed on the wholesale market place, they remain listed on the premuim marketplace. if your own names sells on the wholesale market, there is a transfer center where you get to converse with the buyer for either push or transfer option. when the buyer receives the domain, he will notify SH who will then release payment to you.

2. I use GT dorm account. there is no minimum balance required. I am not recommending this neither do i know any other type of dorm account.

I dont like using dorm because of the hassle of going to the bank, then there is the issue of the bank not having FX at that point(or not wanting to release) then going over to BDC to change it.

I have been denied withdrawal on the grounds that they didnt have FX, pleaded with them to enquire which branch had so i could go there

I have also been restricted from withdrawal because it was an inflow, i was told one could only withdraw what was deposited across the counter

there is also another option, I dont like it for security reasons, transferring to BDC agent, who will then credit your Naira acc at parallel market rate

My Oga, I need this clarification from you. I thought your own domain listed at domain sellers marketplace at Squadhel.p has a maximum price tag of 40 percent of retail price. I see you mention "no limit." I want to clarify in case I am missing something

Congratulations!
Those of you wey they bath soap ontop domaining, continue ooo

LOL. Domai n flippin g involves a lot of mechanics and common sense. There is really no soap bathing involved. I was curious by your comment even if i know you may be joking.

Let's do a simple commercial viability check on that sold domai n na me.

1. If you go to GKP tool, you'll discover it has healthy metrics. Over 100 average monthly search volume and CPC of up to $3
2. If you go to Goo gle . com and type the keyword in quotation marks, you'll see over 1.75m web pages with exact match phrase. That is huge data.
3. There is even a club, guide, etc on this topic.
4. This name is EMD (exact match domain) with about 660,000 mentions on different web pages.

Beyond this, classic car restoration is a rare niche with lots of enthusiasts. The bottom line is getting a domain name which has commercial value to potential end users or buyers if any. Attached are some of the metrics.

There are different ways of making your point without telling the person he/she isn't smart and lacks foresight.

I'm sorry sir if that is how you interpreted it. I was really not comfortable with the way the potential buyer was labelling him a scammer when he is not and supposed to be negotiating the best price he can pay to get the domain from him.

When you have the yam and the knife, it is you that will decide the size to cut it. Emabinu!

demo4ril97:
Name was closed to expiration and I followed up with them.

Expired this week and was available for reg fee, they probably were watching the name till it was available.

Am I missing something? I believe the native doctor would have asked the man to bring somebody for the money ritual if I am not mistaken.

Now, whose child would fit the sacrifice? Someone else's? If the native requested for any human for the money ritual, both should be arrested and prosecuted.

Just came back from the market... Went there with my landlord's son... This afternoon he saw me going out and asked where I was heading to... Told him... He asked if he could accompany me and I said yes! He was getting a few things too (a mop and buckets and so on...)

I've never spoken to him before... I thought he was an arrogant self-absorbed snub... Not my type... He's a few years older... I'm nineteen so he's between twenty one to twenty three... Very fair... Has curly hair which he dyed dirty blond but left the roots black... Pierced both ears... Dad is a police man... So it's insane he allows his son go out looking like a yahoo boy...

Anyways... He and I trekked a little... We barely spoke... I was extremely shy...

We stay in a very quiet predominantly hausa- fulani- yoruba muslim community... After some minutes we finally stopped a bike... He said we would ride together... I told him 'No'... I never tried that sh** with my exes and sure a as hell wouldn't start with him... But after waiting to no avail... I relented...

It was uncomfortable and extremely exciting! Being really close to cute guy! A lot of bad thoughts but I was also scared a neighbour would see he and I and report us to my mum...

We got to the market which is extremely disorganized! We split up... He went his own way to get what he wanted to buy... And I went to the stalls selling tomatoes and pepper and bought some onions from a mallam...

He and I met again... He asked if I was done so we would head back to our compound together... I told him I had to grind them cause the blender at home was faulty...

In the market... There's a section where yoruba women grind tomatoes or egusi etc... We got there... The lady I chose cause her engine was the cleanest started to tease us... My landlord's son is an aje-butter... He was choking turning red...

It felt good... Cause he was a bit humiliated which made me confident...

The woman asked if we were dating... I couldn't say no... Kept laughing throughout... He didn't say anything.... I think it's a good thing... He made it seem as though we were together...

We finished there... Started talking really well... He's funny... Smart too... Plus he's cute so I enjoyed us being seen together as much as being with him...

We went to a cold room to get some chicken... Nothing much happened there... He paid though... I refused cause I had the money... But I couldn't make a scene... We later spent the money on sweets and soft drinks... Which was fun...

His mum called... Asked him to go to his aunt's wine shop to get something... I didn't follow him cause it's already late... Went home alone...

what's the length and breath of this story now? That you're infatuated. Well, look before you leap.
