In selling this kind of domain, what you need to do is apply the business ethics of speed and momentum.

In achieving this, register domain names and grow it into becoming an old school domain before selling it.

The first mistakes newbie domainer make is trying to get 100’s of domains written down and start registering them without the fundamental consideration of if it will sell or not.

In this piece, I am going to look at how to coin a domain that sells and sell it fast.

1. Shortness: Your domain must be short to make a good impact in the market place. The shorter it is, the easier it is to remember.

2. SEO firneldy: People are looking for domains that are search engine friendly.

3. Complexity: Complexity will prevent you from selling your domain quickly. A complex word will not be easily remembered.

4. Trend: A trendy domain will sell off easily. Once it was Obama winning the election, rush and register Obama related domain.

5. Who-is-Issue: The owner of the domain must be you and stated on the who is. To check if you are the owner of your domain, simply type who.is and add your domain name. It must have your name, address, email and phone number.

6. Working Email: You must use a working email that you access all the time to register your domain. This is because, you may have an offer from a prospective buyer to your email. If you no longer have access ordo not access your mail regularlly, you will lose the sale.

Once you have gotten all the above, then choose a good domain registration company to register your domain with.

Domain parking companies are springing up day by day. But credible parking comapnies are few.  A lot of companies promise heaven on earth and delivers nothing.

Following are the best domain parking companies you can use:

1. Parked.com: Parked.com services are very ok and good. They are one of the best in the industry for reasons: First, their landing pages are good; Secondly, they pay twice monthly. They have a minimum payout of $20 by paypal, $100 by check and $2500 by wire transfer and any country can participate with parked.com account.

2. Sedo.com: When it comes to the best in terms of selling domain name, sedo takes it all.  They are good indeed. Sedo will broker domain at no cost to the owner of the domain while they will charge 10% to the buyer.  Domain owner do not need to know who is buying his domain name with sedo as sedo hanldes all of the transaction. payment can be made in paypal or wire transfer.  You can park a single domain with sedo

3. Afternic: Afternic is a great monetization comapny when it comes to domain auction. They are good. Your listed domain is purchsed based on bidding. Their email allert system is quick impressive. You know who is buying your domain from the word go and the three parties will have a coordination on the dashboard untill transaction is concluded. Afternic will take commission from the seller of the domain.

Sedo brokered elevance.com for $40,000. Other good domains that were brokered by sedo recently includes among others:
typhon.com: $15,000
beautygroup.com:: $3,000
filehost.tv

Justfind.com was sold for 1000 Euro while whoiswatchingme.com was sold for $500

This is a good begining for the domain industry in 2008.

There is no doubt that there are good domain brokers such as sedo, afternic and a host of others.

But there are times a domain owner would want to sell his domain directly without using a domain broker, most especially penny domains or if you receive a mail from a buyer for a domain not listed with a broker.

One naked fact is that the activities of domain traffickers who would want to steal your domain is on the increase and so the following must be taken into consideration if a domain owner is going to sell his domain directly to a buyer.

1. Know the identity of who your buyer is: Knowing the identity of who you are selling to is important. Some emails from “prospective buyers” could be scam. You must therefore need to search for the existence of such names and their email on google and you will know if such is scam from your search.

2. Instant Payment System: You must try to use Instant payment systems such as paypal and egold. Do not authorise transfer of a domain if you have not receive payment. If you are receiving check or wire transfer payments, do not transfer untill you receive your payment.

3. Do not appraise domain from buyer’s link: Cases abound where “domain scammers” would send a link from a third party domain appraiser asking you to click there to appraise domain. This is just an old trick for them to get their affiliate payment from your appraisal fee as they are not interested in buying your domain. what you need to do here is to look for appraisal services yourself and appraise and send the certificate to your buyer.

Following the above simple strategies will give you your earnings if you want to sell your domain alone.

Why most people miss domain business is not because they don’t have good domain names, but because they are focusing only waiting to sell for four figures after they have heard of the dotcom boom with domains.

Domain parking, buying and selling is an art every domainer need the right strategies, skill and tools to master. And one good way strategy is to actually make money is by busing penny domains.

What are Penny Domains? Penny Domains are domains you can buy off from the owners with as little as $20 to $50 and resell it in no time for a bigger price.

What you need are as follows:

1. You can visit domain parking and auctioning and brokers companies, search for penny domains(less costlier domains) and buy them and list them back there. These domains must however be of traffic.

2. You can also check for key-word-term domains and register them and resell them cheaply.

How then Can you sell them? Once you have made a purchase, list them in domain related forums, add them in auction/bidding domain companies and buyers will come.

Start buying and selling domains while you also grow your portfolio and keep the ones you will sell for a hire price in the future based on other factors.

My advice therefore is that you should start today in growing your penny domain portfolio and sell weekly and over time, you will discover you have made more money than single big sale.

Why Do You Park Domain Names? You park domain by signing up with parking sites to make money from third party advert links on daily basis. You are paid by parking company by monthly or monthly depending on the parking company.

The money that is paid to the owner of the domain is from the advertisers with the single purpose of generating traffic and increasing sales of their products.

Therefore once you are signed up with a parking site to make money, the following must be observed strictly to prevent your account from being terminated.

1. Don’t Click On Ad Links on Your Domain: Clicking on the ad links of third parties on your site means you are making money off them without sales conversion. One thing that is very clear is that once an advertiser complain of clicks without conversion, your account will be investigated and possibly terminated. Data Centers are every where to monitor your clicks and so your IP will be known. If order to know this, simply type dnsstuff.com and see that the ip you are using right away is known so you will never get away from it.

2. Take Domaining As A Business: Making Money Online is not-one-of-those-things. You must take it as your business and so be serious with it. When you take it as a one of those things, you are likely to start getting over expectation and start trying top apply things you are not supposed to do.

3. Don’t Ask your friends to Click for you: Asking your friends to click ads on your domain is a complete fraud and in no time, your account will be terminated too.

4. Read the Terms of Policy of each Parking company: I have actually experienced a lot of people who feel that terms of services of these companise are too long to read and so they don’t read it. If you take your domaining as a business, then you should read each of their term of service and policies to know what you should and should not do. One secret to this is that while some parking sites who used google will not allow you to use email links to advertise your domains, others will allow it.

5. Don’t Use Autosurf Programs: One quick way to see your account terminated is to use auosurf programs to advertise your domains. parking partners such as google, yahoo and ask.com don’t play with this. Such rotating program include among others as ts25, etc

6. Your Information Must be accurate: Your account could be terminated if you quote false information.

This however is no doubt a good turnaround for adult domains which is climbing high profile.

Same 2007 was interesting as it saw also Porn.com selling for $9.5 Million. Other great sales in this category were the rumored sales of Naked.com and BigTits.com for an above $2Million price value.

Thus in 2007,adult domains are among the highest sale for the year.

This is also coupled with the fact that so much HYPS have been made by several theorist who want quick money with claims of how they make it on domaining. What I keep telling my subscribers, friends and students alike is that Domaining is an art that you master.

Therefore you run it as a business and not just for the fun of it. It is a serious business for serious minded netpreneure. The taste of the pudding is in the eating. experience is the best teacher. You may have checked out sales brokered and you come of the thinking that domains that were sold was not worth the price as the names were worthless. No. Not at all. To start making it big ion domain business, you will need to do the following:

1. Have a Domain Role Model: As with any thing in life, you will never do too well or you could avoid mistakes if you have a role model and follow his advise for a long period of time to understudy his secrets and methods and leverage on his mistakes.

2. You must read voraciously online: First, free information abound on the internet about anything you can think and so you can have an insight into what you want to do as a domainer.

3. You must have a payment system: A payment system will enable you to make payment, purchase software, domain names as the case maybe. You cannot register domain name without a payment system such as paypal or credit card.

4. You must be with trend: Trends is onje of the factors that determine which domain you can register and sell immediately. If for example when hurricane Katrina happened and you rush off to the net and secured a name related to it, you will make good money monetizing the domains by selling clicks or possibly sell it off to a wanting buyer.

5. You Must mind where you register domains: This last factor is of very great importance. Your ability to research on a company you use in registering your domain matter as some of them a fly by the night companies with poor support and could close at any time or some will steal of hijack your domain name. Give them a call, search in search engines to know about them and possibly send a mail to their support.

I will continue with part 2 later.
