So before buying.. Take the below into consideration because most of the statistics are flawed. I will be dropping them in bits to abstain from ban.

1. Do not spend more than you can earn in few months. I.e start low first, when the revenue starts coming, you can start spending big.


The highest I have spent is 56$ for a name though I have spent more than 300$ on dynadot alone. I hope to be spending bigger in the future but now, I can't invest more than I can make from parking in less than 6 months.

I can't register on bodis with my phone. Why?

priceaction:
i totally lost interest when i submitted a names to them 3 weeks ago when we were dragging why they sent me, confirmation letter that my name has been preapproved and that i should accept the price given on the platform. I got there didnt see any name, here and there arguments , only to conclude that as it has been pre-approved, doesnt mean it has been approved, Up until now, i dont know what they mean. You are the one that sent me congratulatory messages and told me to change dns, and agree with the price suggested,you are still saying not approved. if it is suggested name, i guess they would have approved it.
Eventually said it was an error. Now the name is in brandbucket with fast approval, and 3k suggestion, i was surprised. The name is zuryx.com currently listed for 3k there and still in afternic network pointing to brandbucket. Every year i no sell am, i will increase it by 1k for the next 10 years. Na so the game go be.

Here are Some of my listed names on Squadhelp "this Week".

So guys can learn. I try to keep it short and simple(Less than 8 letters at the moment) except if it is a 2 keyword name (then maybe 12 letters max). All names my name till date are from expireddomains and I don't do auctions yet, cos I've fully understood it (still learning).
Again don't rejoice yet when a brandable market accepts your name, that a name is accepted doesn't mean it'll sale, Some names accepted this days are low quality And mostly face tough competition with many similar names in same marketplace, try to make your names stand out and explore niches that are untapped and unsaturated with same varieties of similar crappy names . Try to do something creative and different. More read widely if you must succeed in this niche, don't be lazy , come out from your comfort zone, you can do it.


And please don't tell me to share my portfolio link cos i can't. Moreso all the names I register still follows the same patterns and ideology of my "Brandable domain guide" i shared "Here" some months back nothing has really has changed that much, unless if new trend names are in the market i try to blend in too, but aside from cannabis Industry and previous crypto market which seems dead at the moment, nothing new have really happened, although some considerable mentions are, the Covid 19 trend which is for a while and not long term. And maybe a little boom in the home delivery / courier service, food and beverage service industries, also a little attention was paid on the cleaning/ purifying and sanitary services in the past few months as a result of Covid, an maybe a little attention paid on the fashion and beauty industry too (I'm currently exploring and studying this niche) and also an attention maybe given to the tech and innovation industry too cos there will be multiple roll out of new innovation techs due to the recent pandemic.
I hope someone learns a thing or two from all that.

Peace

All names Expireddomains??

As a beginner that still submits unregistered names, I'm not that lucky with ED. People always play a fast one on me.

beckplanet:
Yeah i mentioned that. All names i register are from expireddomains.
That's the disadvantage of doing unregistered names submission. I don't encourage do that often.

Hence the journey began continuation.....
Hence with a portfolio of 300 names the journey commenced in 2019.


January :
2019 began with 7 sales in January from Afternic

Sold names like

Hempita dot com $299
Herbalbaba dot com $199
BuildLuxe dot com $150
Gildchain dot com $199
Robotionary dot com $150
Fiatluxe Dot com $195
Nutricoins dot com $399 (maybe because of the crypto craze)


Netted around $1800 from sales in this month from afternic and few other sales from namepros auction sales.
January Verdict : January was by far my best month so far in terms of turn over but not profit. Some of the sales maybe inspired by start ups starting the year with fresh ideas or acquiring a name for there upcoming businesses.


February :

Had 3 sales in February 2 at afternic one at Dan

HempCircus dot com $250
Hollandlabs dot com $200

Oscarautosales dot com $125 (@DAN)

February Verdict : I noticed a continuous interest and demand in CBD/Hemp names due to the growing popularity of the cannabis industry but unfortunately i had few names in that space hence my interest increased as I monitored the space.

Net proceed for February : $575


March

Had 4 sales in March at afternic and 2 major sales at namepros through selling 2 BB published names to brandable investors


SwiftRestore dot com $750
Mediaviser dot com $350
Duratoken dot com $250 (BB published name sold at namepros)
Duracurrency dot com $100 (BB published name sold at namepros)

March Verdict :
Pretty a solid month considering a slight rise in price of sales. Started building a squadhelp portfolio in this month.

Net proceed for March : $1450

April

Lol April was a quite month no sales at major marketplaces. Accept a few namepros sales as i already built a strong network of domain investor friends there. So i sold a bulk portfolio of 10 BP(Brandpa) accepted name for $250 mind you this was when Brandpa names was in demand not anymore and another bulk of 10 Brandbucket accepted names for $200

April Verdict :

Really a slow month but i still managed to make a turn over to steady the ship. And liquidated roughly 25 names at namepros for $500 in total.

Net proceed for April : $500

May :

May was blank inside and out as i reduced my activity in Domaining to focus on other issues of life majorly on a program i was working on. Though i manage to have one sale at Dan for a geo name i almost forgot exist in my portfolio.

Net proceed for May : $150

June :

I returned back to business in June. Had a few unlucky offers $1500 and another $750 where buyer disappeared after i agreed to their offer. Well i move on.

Had 2 sales in June at afternic

Digitlytic dot com $ 350
Suitefy dot com $799

Verdict for June

Well a few disappointments but it was all good the sales made up for the loss.

Net proceed for June : $1150




July

3 sales in July.
July hit me with 2 major sales in brandable marketplaces and a sale at afternic


Kanibi dot com $1700 (Brandpa)

SavvyCBD dot com $1799 (Squadhelp)

Advviser dot com $300 (Afternic)


July Verdict
July became the strongest month for me in net profit as i also sold names at namepros too, to domain name investors.

Net proceed for July $4200


August

August was fairly good month too and strong month from afternic at i sold 4 names there and a further 2 names sold at Dan.

Exolytics dot com $350
CbdsupplyUSA dot com $305
HealthViser dot com $795
CBDpura dot com $400
Remedycleaning dot com $50
Gracefinancialservices dot com $350



August Verdict :

In one word "Strong August".

Net proceed for August $2250



September

September was pretty good as August with one major brandable marketplace sale at squadhelp and 2 afternic sales

Apexster dot com $1799 (Squadhelp)
RipeCoin dot com $350 (Afternic)
NeuroArmor dot com $300

September verdict :
September was nice as August

Net proceed for August : $2450


October :

October was fairly quite at afternic though i managed to have a sale there. And a couple of low sales at epik as i was trying out there bargain marketplace

NexaCBD dot com $1400 (Afternic)
ChimpHero dot com $79 (Epik)
CBDtraffic dot com $79 (Epik)
FuturePays dot com $79 (Epik)

October Verdict :
Well October surprised me with surprise sales. But it was all good as a learnt a few things like tasting epik out and then pointing more names there although I've not heard from epik again after then. But a few offers and nothing more.

Net proceed for October : $1670


November :

2 sales in November at afternic

KeepSwift dot com $350
Blockvera dot com $495


November verdict : Fairly good month.

Net proceed for November : $845

December

Ongoing though 2 sales so far at afternic

Drcanna dot Co $295

Kreditwallet dot com $150 (well i don't like typos or mispelt names and was surprised this name sold. With my wealth of knowledge in this niche i will pass on this name if i have the chance to register it today. Creditwallet is definitely a better name)

December Verdict : slow month and not what i expected as resulting to my portfolio growth so far in the last quarter of the year. But generally all good as some couple of sales happened regardless.

Net so far in December : $450


Conclusion :

In conclusion i had in total of 37 major marketplace sale from a portfolio that started the year with 300 names that roughly more than 10% sales through rate and judging from a sales point of view the sale ratio is impressive considering all the sales are mostly from passive sales (inbound) and i had little work to do as to how to sale the names but much work to do as to how and what name to buy/register.

Fact stat : Afternic was the strongest sales venue for me racking up close to 90% of my portfolio sales.

Hence
Total names sold : 37 name
Total Net proceed : $17,335
Net profit after commission deduction : $13,000
Investment amount : Roughly $1000 (Due to netsol promo)
Further Investment was made after sales. To close up for names dropped and renewals plus acquiring new names.

Current portfolio size : 525 names

Squadhelp portfolio currently : 105 names ( 5 of those belongs to squadhelp while the other 100 are owned by me)
Brandpa portfolio size currently : 30 names
Brandbucket portfolio currently : 7 names

Although I'm looking to build a Brandbucket portfolio again but that will be pretty hard considering their length of review time. I currently have names there submitting for review for 4 weeks and counting.
Brandpa has not lived up to the hype although i managed to renew a few names there to give them another year and see what happens.

What i have learnt this year :

Making better decisions while registering or buying names. Instead of registering shopavio dot com or shopically dot com for cheap I'd rather got for shopsy dot com and pay more. In Domaining the more Quailty your names the better. I learnt this the hard way and I'm now gradually making better judgment in what i add to my portfolio and what to evict.

Renewal times gives you a better idea of whether you have good names or not. Don't ask me how it's better you experience it yourself and learn.

I still sucks at pricing names and still have alot to learn in negotiating and closing a deal. Although I'm learning gradually.

Namepros is still a great place to start as a newbie. Nairaland also a vital tool to hear and pick invaluable experience from fellow countrymen.

Lastly with God all things are possible.


I hope you learnt a thing or two from my experience.

2020 will be great for Everyone.

Peace
