May I add that the keyword planner is no longer free again; in that you need a google adword acc to use the tool.

It's free my friend. Go and sign up. Follow the sign up process and Google will only bill you $1 to verify that you own the debit card you entered in the billing info stage.

The money will be refunded to your account later anyway. As soon as you have been approved, you can now use the tool on your dashboard. But remember to pause any advert you have created during your sign up process so that you won't be billed at the end of the month.

The Oxford English Dictionary just added some new words and some Nigerian words and senses made it there.

Nigerian words like Okada, Agric, K-leg, Danfo, Mama Put, Barbing Salon, Ember Months, Tokunbo, Send-Forth, Next Tomorrow, Gist, Chop-Chop etc. made it to the list.

Here is a link to the update - https://public.oed.com/updates/new-words-list-january-2020/

The list could be useful to domainers.

What do we think? Is any of the words, derivative or addition to it worth investing on?

In order to have a global market to reach out to, it is always better to register a domain name with universal meaning with the exception of brandable domain which is purely a creative of the originator. It is easy to register a domain name but difficult to renew it.

Which kain thing be this na? Guys wat can i fit do or reply

Use the free Google Keyword Planner tool to find out if the domain keyword has monthly search volume at all. You can then take a screenshot of the excel spreadsheet and send to him. Period! If you don't know how to use Google Keyword Planner tool, you can get my free ebook download from the link below.

You can always use this method to learn if there is monthly search volume for any keyword you want to register as a domain name.

Yes, there is always opportunities like this at Flippa. The challenge is meeting up with the demand and ticking all the requirements expected of a potential buyer

vivoge:
Hello all,
Just received this from flippa. Does anyone here own a developed website with such criteria? Feel free to contact them.

paulsir:
To add to what you wrote, agreegator website is the way as advised by tranxo sometimes ago. What you need is just to add the feeds of the website you want to add contents from and you are getting contents everyday with the sources attached.

Yes, you're very right. But my big reservation is that savvy information seekers want to read, learn and hear from an original angle and not curated content.

Please guys, is there anything I can do about this. I decided to try my hands in the domain flipping business. Bought a domain and put it up for sale, due to school work and other stuff I didn't follow up progress on the domain sales only to find out this morning while checking my old mails that afternic sent me a mail since September last year that someone paid $400 for the domain.... checking my afternic dashboard right now, there's no sign that any money was paid. I guess the buyer has been refunded his money.....

Always use email address you regularly open. Also, always go through your spam folder to avoid good emails sent to you being trashed after 30 days. Money was sent to me and the mail was mistakenly sent to spam folder by Google. That day I just checked my spam folder (I don't that often anyway) and discovered that mail. That would have been lost money!

For the domain name, you can keep it knowing that at least one buyer out there is interested. Do your outbound marketing and one of them may be the buyer. Remember, the domain would have appreciated. Increase the price to something $650. If one of the persons you reach out to is the buyer and discover you are the same person, he will let you know. Sell to him at $400 he previously paid. You'll have a friend forever.

What if you have sent to every website that appeared in the domains keyword search?

First, buying the right domain name is key. There is no way to go around it. If you have the best mousetrap, the world will bit a path to your doorstep. Imagine I have a building to sell in the heart of Ikeja, Lagos state, will it take me years to find buyers? No! But to sell a house in the village where I live, they will laugh at you because some people are moving away to urban areas.

Number two, if you sincerely believe in your domain name because you saw a good online business idea for it, why not develop it into a business? Let your potential buyers see it as a business they can take up from a level of making money online and not as work. Asking people to buy empty domain names is like going to Computer Village, Ikeja and telling people how much they have in their wallets and how much they can give you from it. Except someone is led in the spirit to give you, dry season and raining season (i.e. domain name renewal palaver) will meet you without anybody giving you a dime. This is why guys and gals here talk so much about grace, grace and grace.

This is why I focus more on keyword, product or service domain names more than geographical domains. Build a simple website and create a blog on a domain and sell. Although turnkey websites are no longer as popular as before, you can still make profits from it. But if you are ambitious, you can turn a website to $50,000 sale. I have an ebook from another author for this system and after reading it, I said Whaoh! I am working on that myself; it is just that there is only 24 hours in a day!

I am not a website designer myself so don't say you cannot build a website or it costs money to hire a freelance web designer. Use self-hosted WordPress. You can bootstrap online business tools and resources for your first and second websites. Save money from it and start building premium blogs and websites. Online business ideas are everywhere on the web. Go to Flippa.com and learn more.

To be frank with you, there is so much one can give away on a thread like this. And I don't have the time to write an e-book detailed enough to explain the steps involved. Otherwise, my brick-and-mortar businesses will suffer. But as we go things will begin to unfold.

Justice500:
I want to confirm from the gurus how sale letter is sent to end users because I have sent letters and even followed up, no reply. At least to confirm my letter is delivered let them reply not interested. help out pls

Always assume you have not sent any sales letter until someone replies with buyer's interest. That way, your focus will be on results not on efforts

sammchuck1:
Hi guys!
*Can this domain reselling thing be an actual business? I would love to learn if so.
*But it seems it should be a side thing since one could wait for a year before selling a domain. *Also, how much do I budget to get started?

Whether the bottle is half full or half empty, it is the way you see and believe it

Understanding the Power of Sacrifice

For you to move to the next level in life, you must be able to make sacrifice both quantitatively and qualitatively. This is what I can also coin as 4T of prosperity. That is making sacrifice with your talents, treasure, time and trust.

Your talents represent your skills, knowledge, experience, exposure and what you are willing to learn and master to add value to mankind and get rewarded. Your treasure is the money and tools you need to invest and soar in your business. This is the seed capital that oils your business ideas to the marketplace. The time is the period of doing everything you need to do to make your business idea becomes tangible and valuable. Finally, trust is the truth, reliability and honesty you use to cement your business so that people can do business with you for a long time.

If any of the 4T is missing, you may not be able to go far. Go and make the sacrifice today so that your journey to financial prosperity will be guaranteed in year 2020. You will succeed!

IDEALCASH:
pls how can one check what a city is known for?

Go to Google.com and simply enter "What is Las Vegas known for." You will be surprised with the results you get. But you can take it a step further. Look at the ancillary services associated with what the city is known for. For example, if Las Vegas is known for gambling, registering domain related to hotels, motels, recreation, car rental, limo services, will sell ultimately.

You can start creating a swipe file for each city, its mainstay, its "picks and shovels" services, and use it to get domain names you can sell without uncertainty even if it doesn't sell immediately.

My 2 cents (oh no, my 2 kobo)

Niom:
I have been following u for and you mostly talk about getting a website, domain name, hosting & building a email list for online marketting.
Can you build a site for me? Hope ur charge is not much ooo

Yes, having your own website or blog is the most sustainable and best way to make money online. With CMS platforms like WordPress, you don't need to pay anybody to build a website for you. Get a domain name of your own, buy web hosting and build your website for free.

You can download a free ebook below on how to get cheap and reliable web hosting. After following the instructions in the guide, I can guide you through the steps or help you to install WordPress on your domain free of charge if you like.

Also, if i have a site, do i have to create other sites for different products if i am using sales funnel for online marketing?

It depends on you and how much you want to make online per month. If your goal is to make $1000 per month, I think one blog website will be okay for you. But if you are ambitious like me and you want to make $10000 per month online, you may have to build authority blog or 2 or more niche website to achieve your goal.

How do i reach u?

You can PM me from Nairaland and I will reply you and start communication from there.

Bornboy4:
You're really doing a wonderful job most people won't do for free!
It's even unbelievable that you are from this part of the world where nothing goes for free!
I render same free services too.
MAY GOD BLESS OUR HUSTLE!

Thank you and God bless you and the work of your hands.

richkal:
Bro I tell you. Sometimes, it makes me cringe when I see the kind of result people are pulling in the domain name business. Imagine someone generated almost $180k from geo domain name business in 2019. If I have seen this figure before, I would never ask that is it possible to make consistent cash flow from geo domain Name business.



They are great advantages, it seems those two things you mentioned reflex at PayPal figure because It's the highest of the three platforms.

The screenshot you uploaded of domain names sales is what I always advocate so that we can work less and earn more. There is only 24 hours in a day! That guy is the REAL DEAL. He is a domain name investor through and through.

naija hosting is good by me and there are many of them around charging btw 5-7k a year.
sluhosting just finished promo of $5/year although it's based abroad.

What about some Nigerian business owners' attitude to customer support? We are talking about website hosting here.

Which cheap and reliable hosting site will you recommend?

Please I will appreciate your feedback. I rely and work with people's contributions and customers' testimonials for improvements in my businesses all the time.

priceaction:
Wait oo. Can those be passed as domain or website? Assuming we have something like this, will the registra allow it to be displayed like this because we need their bin or make offer link. I think this is a website now , not necessarily a domain. Can u explain?
Besides, free elementor can do this within minutes. Free hosting service is a plus.

Free hosting is not an option here because there is no much flexibility. For places where you listed your domain for sale, you will only list and not use their name servers. You will make use of the name servers of your paid web hosting company.

My opinion: I see a lot of aspiring Nigerian online entrepreneurs shying away from paid web hosting. TOO BAD! Investing in paid website hosting service of about $141.49 for 3 years is something you can get back within 6 months even if you are a rank beginner. And you can do so many things with your account such as creating custom email address, 301 redirects for affiliate product links, setting up e-commerce store with WordPress, etc.

Always remember that you invest money to make money.

Hope the faces you are using in your designs are from free stock images? You may run into murk waters if it is otherwise. But they are nice and it will increase the value of the domain name ten times if self hosted on servers with just one page blog website.

Tithing is a commandment from God not man. So, leave the broke neighbour to God who commanded it. It is in the bible that the glory of the latter house will be greater than the former (Haggai 2 verse 9). Except the poor neighbour is not totally doing the will of God, I can guarantee you that his wealth will explode sooner than you can imagine.

I am not even writing about peace of mind that tithing and Godliness brings. Drinking and babbling is hallucination and ephemeral joy that varnishes when reality dawns.

Sir, i do understand what u pointing out, thou not as much as u would understand since u are farrr more into it.

But this end users sometimes tell u they have a domain, so what will they do with d one u are selling?

So I don't expect them to BUY ANOTHER WEBSITE WHEN THEY HAVE ONE UP AND RUNNING.
Also u may know better. But i believe if just by building website and doing nothing again would bring money, everybody would have been a millionaire with we design. I believe u have to monitise it, which will definitely take time (at least to someone that is new to it), talk more of monitising multiple websites..

All in all its a brilliant idea sir. But to one that has been doing it for a very loong time like yourself, but to us that are only trying to sell all those bunch of domains we have, i believe we focus more on the domains

Yes, I agree with you on every point. My ONLY challenge with domain flipping is that the law of diminishing returns can set in and frustrate it for someone. That is why we have to continue to learn and upgrade to best business ideas. For me, I am not tech savvy. I am from a business background. I don't even know the difference between HTML and HOTMEAL when I got started. But I discovered learning and becoming an expert in anything is about your mindset and time.

Access Bank and Diamond Bank are my 2 accounts. Going to open GT and Zenith first thing tomorrow morning.

Open GTBank and forget Zenith Bank. Zenith Bank can be a thorn in the flesh when it comes to receiving foreign currencies. They expect you to provide telex copy within 3 days of fund receipt by them. If not they will return your fund to the sender. At least they did it to me.
