Domain Shane’s Daily List of Domains at Auction for Monday January 20th, 2020

Escrow.com

I think it’s great that so many people are able to make a living in domain investing. A chance to be your own business and make a comfortable living from your home computer. It truly is an incredible opportunity that we just happened to be born at the right time to enjoy. And it’s availability to anyone, anywhere there is Internet.

The reality is the majority of people that make money do it part time. They make some extra money that gives them a chance to buy some things they wouldn’t have been able to buy. Giving them some financial freedom with a couple of extra hours a day. For many in foreign countries it gives them a chance to make more in a day than they could make in a week at local wages. Domain investing is truly a life changing opportunity. For every big house, new car, and six figure domain purchase investor there are 100 new computer, extra vacation and four figure purchase domain people. It’s where the majority of domain investors live.

I say this not to label or divide domain investors, but to point out that advice given by me and others needs to include the fact that we are all in a different place financially. What you “should” do shouldn’t come down to what you should spend but rather educate on what domains sell and how to pick them out. We all get caught up in the six figure sales and “bought at $150 sold at $8500” domain sales reports. What we don’t get from a Mike Mann types is how much profit was made. These full disclosures are the rarity. @DoronVermaat and @MarkLevine @domaintheory Mark Levine are two of the few that give exactly how much they spent and the details of how much they took in. Even I have never done this and think it would be a good idea to do this for 2020. (so far its easy, no domain sales so I’m in the hole)

In many senses I think the big sales and the anomaly sales can actually hurt domain investors profitability . Shooting for the moon has served Rick Schwartz well. But even he, the Domain King, doesn’t have a lot of data for domains purchased in the last few years and their sales. It’s hard for a new investor to learn anything except believe in your names and get the most you can for them. Which is excellent advice to add to your overall game plan. And we all know its netted him 10s of millions of dollars. But we need to start with making tens of thousands first.

There are a lot of ways to make a buck. It’s going to be a different path for each person. From starting with $100 to other starting with a Bar Mitzvah money haul, you’re not going to hear everyone’s full story. You’ll most likely hear about the winners but not much about the overall results. So take everything we say with a grain of salt and learn your trade through places like DNAcademy. Looks at Travis’ auction results here on his daily recap and then look for sales results on DnJournal.com If you do all three you’ll be in a much better place to make some good side money. All in my opinion of course.

  1. You are spot on. I may put together some data on some of my historical costs and sales….I’ve been in the game a LONG time and have ultimately done well by way of development on good names, but my pure “renewal fees vs. domain sales” may not be so impressive. A number of factors involved here (including lack of outbound selling / marketing etc) – but as always, you pretty much only hear about the good stuff.
