It seems like domain parking is a viable strategy to add to a portfolio. I guess I'll keep a lookout for any suitable domain to purchase from now on. Once you purchase a domain, how do you go about setting up the parking? Thanks for the tips, guys.

RE:   Which mobile phone do you have? Yes, I had insurance on my Motorola RAZR. I went to the Verizon store and they were able to replace the battery and worked fine. Phew!

Did he really only get 2 hits from Google? I have a general query for all users. Is it prudent to pay for search engine optimization keywords, or would it be better to start off doing some original research and trying to see what works best for that specific site? Wordtracker seems a...

This is a for any interested users. It looks like this type of strategy would have to be done in great excess to quantify any type of profit.  Do any users here practice domain tasting? It seems that this type of strategy is under public scrutiny; according to the Wikipedia article...

Thank you for the informative post, DomainGod. How common is it for the average user to purchase expired domain names and sell them back to the original owner? Is that practice looked down upon?

pranavbhat, I would say that this domain is worth very little unless there is a current website or current dedicated traffic. My estimate is that the initial worth is roughly in between the low end $9.99 - $99.99 range... Does anyone agree or disagree with my estimate? Admittedly, this...

Thanks, Truelyana! How long have you been in the business? What type of work do you do?

You know, it's funny - shortly after posting in this thread, my mobile phone died! I'm really annoyed about this. It gave me no problems in the past. I hope that it won't be too expensive to fix...

Exactly, Nameslot. I could not imagine that a classified ad would have any major effect on the traffic for a website. It may be better to advertise in a magazine or an online listing - but, aside from free listings, those can get expensive.

Hello, everyone! I was referred to this forum as a good place to get to know about the domain buying and selling business. Hopefully, I am a good enough researcher to learn from all of the tips and tricks of our more experienced users. I plan to make my first domain purchase within a few...

I mostly play console video games. I am a big fan of the Final Fantasy series. I like most roleplaying games and I participate in a paper roleplaying game, too. I'm not surprised that there are other gamers here!

I am interested in hearing some marketing strategies, too. From an outside perspective, it looks to the average consumer that a majority of the profits made from domain buying and selling is done because of the opportunistic nature of the buyer. For example, on the news, you often see...

.info does not seem to be a desirable domain extension at this time. I'd go for a .com or a .net version. Is it possible? I wouldn't think those domains are available.

Has anyone gotten a positive response from a classified ad in local or national newspapers?

I would develop the site. It has only two letters' difference with a popular online computer parts store, Newegg. I agree with Nameslot. An online magazine might be the niche for that domain!

I checked out your website. Do you plan on adding anymore content to it? Do you plan on updating the layout? Is the website, right now, at its final version?

But who would be interested in buying a domain name for that amount of money based on a current event? I have not worked with domains, so I'll ask other users: are media outlets responsible for bidding high numbers for those types of domains?

I spend roughly ten hours a day on the computer and on the Internet, but I can do other things while I'm online, too, so it's hard to really gauge the amount of time that I spend online.

I have a standard Motorola RAZR. It is pretty popular in the States.
