Can You Still Make Money Selling Domain Names?

Here it is almost 2010 – is there still a market for buying and selling domain names? The answer is yes! The glory days maybe over when everybody was doing it and making millions overnight, but there still plenty of opportunity for you now. Think of all the people coming on line. Think of all the continual growth in the internet marketing year after year. Think of the all the extensions there are. Nevermind the .coms, what about .name? or .mobi? Plenty of chances there to make some money!

You have to keep your ear to the ground. New movies, new businesses, or a business that has a .com but not a new one, for example for mobile phones. Check out the whois database. Any domains coming up for expiry? Any new product that just came out that seems to be popular? Does it have a website? If you are doing your homework, it will have one: yours!

Tip – .mobi for mobile phones is going to be the next gold mine! Companies more and more are going to the hand helds, this is your chance. All the big domains are wide open all over again with this new extension!

With services like GoDaddy or HostGator, buying and selling domain names is easier than ever. At GoDaddy, you can buy domains for pennies and turn around and sell them dollars.

So don’t think there aren’t chances to make some money on the side – or even a full time income – with domain names, there are new chances everyday!

  • Aw come now, .mobi?

    Don't think so, not by a long shot.

    Afilias taking it over just means it will probably be available at $1 or less each. :p
  • yes..I too agree that there is light of hope of earning dollars flipping domains but the thing is, it is not as easier as you mentioned..it takes time, effort and really a lot researching and all that...I'd like to mention that i will at least not gonna risk my dollars investing on .mobi or whatever as the chances are very few and you and i are not the only smart guys around..there are many killers in domaining business that eyes on blessfful domains and grab them from the very start and grab them in no time! anyway, nice post..keep it up!
