When the .com domain came out new on
March 15th, 1985, it was on a slow pace, but today, it is the most popular
domain online with many people coughing out thousands of dollar to acquire it every
day. Presently, more than 115 million.com domain names have been registered and
the number is still counting. The introduction of new generic top-level domains
(gTLDs) opens up new opportunities for those who are ready to use their brains
to make a lot of money on the World Wide Web.
You can become
rich with the new
gTLDs if you know how to flip hot domains. If you know how to
recognize a potentially hot domain and the process of flipping it, you may well
become one of the internet millionaires of our time. The process is very simple
but requires dedication and hard work. The new gTLDs include .club, .agency, .photography,
.band, .boutique, .academy and so on. Your job is to register domains that you
think will be hot, have them parked and wait for their buyers to come.
One way of identifying potentially hot
domain names is through keyword research. You can use the Google keyword
research tool or Wordtracker, or both, to identify hot keywords and when you
discover them, you should then register them making use of the new gTLDs. In
registering the domains, you should make use of the right registrar so that the
process will be easier for you. There are some registrars that will give you
additional incentives when you do business with them, for example, some of them
may give you free parking service when you make certain number of purchases.
After
registering the names, you can either keep or park them. When you keep them,
you will be waiting for buyers to come for them. On the other hand, if you
decide to park them, they will be visible to search engines and you may make a
few dollars through this before your buyers will come. The latter option is
ideal because domain name registration is renewable every year. However, since
domain parking involves search engine optimization, it may be a great task to
park all your domains. Consequently, you should select few ones to park and
keep the rest till your buyers emerge.
If you want to
know how much you can make in domain flipping, you should visit top sites
dedicated to it like Flippa, Sedo as well as eBay and see their top sales. You
will be amazed at how much a domain can be sold especially if it is highly
demanded. As a result of this, you need to act faster than others because
competition online is very stiff. If you can get the hot domain names before
others, you are definitely going to join the league of those who have made
serious money in domain flipping. The secret of domain flipping is to register
as many potentially hot names as possible because you don't know the one that
will give you a break.

For over 3 years I
have been buying and selling domains on a part time basis and little did I know
of all the resources available to me. Now I am using everything at my disposal
to turn an even higher profit and I will analyse and display a simple approach
so you can start making money with domain names immediately. Here is a great
approach to start making money online.
Step 1
The most important
step is having something to sell. In this article we will look at selling
domain names as our product of choice. Where do we find these domain names to
sell and how much do they cost? For years I would go to a registrar who sells
them and insert random words to see if they were available. The average cost
for a new domain name is $12 - $15 depending on the registrar. This process
took a very long time and after a while became less and less efficient. Don't
get me wrong, I did make some good money from the one word domains that I
picked up and sold on auction but when you take the amount of time involved it
didn't look as appealing to me.
There are companies
online that offer you an opportunity to buy expired or expiring domains that
people do not renew or simply let slip away. In many cases you can find premium
ones that have active traffic and have aged well. These are the ones that make
the most profit. Just go on any search engine and insert "buy expired
domains" and you will find an abundance of opportunities to join. Some are
free to join but there are paid programs that work well also. Before buying I
always do an appraisal on it to ensure the value is real and worth my while.
