Why do domainers like us tend to follow the popular trend of domaining and dive into the investments?

Because there’s money involved!

DNUnderground invested in the LLLL.com market and made a handsome amount of money. We bought domains from $30 to $400 and sold them within a week usually. We were common resellers and tools to the domaining economy. Of course, we knew that the market was a typical Bubble Market and would fail soon, but we took advantage of it.

Some people, invested earlier before the buyout in November and turned a few $10 investments into $10-$300 sales. Some kept the domains after the market died down and most likely will lose some money. Now that their are no more easy money schemes, what do we do now?

We get back to basics.

Real domaining is buying keyword domains and domains with special words in them that may become valuable. Domaining is an investment and we all wished we had got involved earlier. We’re all familiar with the recent sale of Pizza.com. A smart man invested in this domain hoping to grab a pizza company as a client. After a failure, he kept that domain regestrered for a number of years by renewing it. Spending maybe $200 for the domain in all, and selling it for millions. Yes, millions.

Buying interesting domains that you think have potential is the key. Examine and research each individual domain. Take into account reseller value, end-user value, and general potential. The internet is a striving economy, sooner or later there will be few domains left. Investing now is the safe-fire way to prepare for tomrrow.

Real domaining is an investment and a risk.
