An honest introduction.
WHAT IT IS
Registering or buying domain names in the expectation of selling them for more.
WHAT IT IS NOT
A reliable income Easy money Something most people profit from
THE HONEST POSITION
Most people who register domains speculatively lose money.
They pay renewal fees for years on names nobody wants.
WHY
Valuable names are already taken Judging what someone will pay is difficult Most domains never sell
WHAT SEPARATES THOSE WHO PROFIT
Understanding what buyers actually want Buying at prices that allow a margin Accepting that most holdings will not sell Patience over years
WHAT TO UNDERSTAND BEFORE STARTING
The renewal cost of a portfolio compounds.
A hundred domains held for five years is a substantial sum.
WHO THIS SUITS
People with capital they can leave idle, patience, and genuine market knowledge.
WHO IT DOES NOT SUIT
Anyone needing returns soon.
