Sold yet another domain yesterday. Stepable, a dot com, for $1300. A few weeks ago I said that I had been quoting big bucks for my domains and hadn’t sold a one, so I started knocking my quotes down to $2500 or so for many of the names. Now I’m bringing in a little cash. These lower quotes are names that I either hand regged or paid under $250 within the last few years. Yes I’m not getting $5K plus but I’ve sold four names for $6500 and now I can put that into a higher end name. The great part of the transactions is the fact they are great names for the use of the buyers. They are getting a name for a relatively small marketing cost and I’m making money. Everybody wins. Here are today’s names
WaveCatcher.com Surf brand extraordinaire. My brand would be called “Fall Down”
SurfAcademy.org I’m guessing this came from the same expired portfolio
PocketPhones.com I think all phones are pocket phones but since it has no bidders and is 13 years old it was probably cool back then
DomainRiver.com No bidders. Decent domain blog name
BestScooters.com Not sure how the affiliate program for scooters are
WTPU.com Caught my eye because it isn’t catching the eye of anyone else. I think the letters are pretty good
Featured Offer – 32% off new products at GoDaddy! -CAD)
BikeUSA.com Sounds like a nice organization…..if you like to ride
BridalChannel.com Brides spend a shitload of money
Exotics.org I’m thinking cars but others might think snakes, birds, reptiles, and other things that can escape in your house
Hoxa.com Has an X but still will do well
ModernMind.com As opposed to an old fashioned thinker like Buffet
ChickFlick.com Don’t act like you don’t like them. Don’t act like you don’t go see them by yourself on Tuesdays
LoseItAll.com The worst gambling name EVER
PagePump.com No bidders. I like it as an Internet tool or app
HRH.org Great LLL.org
ABetterMeal.com I can see a food company using this as a marketing name. No bidders

Hey Shane, great blog. I just started buying domains this year. In your experience, how long does it take you to sell a domain? What’s your biggest sale?
I’m sure if I continue to read your blog I will find this information, however I figured that I would reach out to the mastermind himself.
Thanks Shane.
Joel,
A few years. If I make a real good buy I can usually flip in a few months but normally it takes a while.
Congrats! I like following your blog because the way you do Domaining makes sense.
Hi Shane, re. “Hoxa.com Has an X but still will do well” I personally like the x, but is there something in domaining about “x’s” Cheers, Howie.
Howie,
Actually I love the name but don’t want to talk it up too much 🙂
Ahh! I see. Mum’s the word! 😉
