Recently a client came to me with an idea about starting a domain leasing / renting website, where domainers could list their domains and people could rent them for a period of time.
The advantage for domainers is that they could potentially make more money while the domain is parked, plus the increased possibility that the person renting the domain would be more inclined to buy it once they see the value.
It could also serve as a way to 'test' the domain before buying.
For the person renting the domain, it means they can get high quality domains for a fraction of the price.
There's a whole lot of legal mumbo jumbo involved and so many things to take in to consideration, but as a concept, does domain leasing fly or is it whole load of crap?
