Hey everyone,
I have recently become involved in the buying and selling of domain names. I pick my names carefully and sold off my first and only website (which i bought as a test to see if this was a viable way to make money)
Anyways I sold <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.canadamerchandise.com">www.canadamerchandise.com</a><!-- w --> for about 130 bucks. it was completly undeveloped and parked at sedo.com
After the sale I was left curious though. Did I get that much because of the name? or because it had about 390 unique visitors in 2 months? or a combination of the two? What was the more deciding factor?
I have recently purchased 3 more domains and I believe the names are good enough to sell for more then what i got for canadamerchandise. I would like to increase their value and so am curious if traffic is the best way to do that or if its just the name bringing in the cash.
I realize obviously setting up the site and creating content and backlinks would payouff the most, but I dont want to host the site and worry about everything to do with it so I will just be parking it.
What do you all think? Did i just get extremely lucky the first time and these domains are doomed to fail or do i have something here and just need a little help from more experienced people in how to refine them.
By the way the new sites are loanitall.com loanitall.net and rapidloan.org
Would love some feedback here, go easy on me im extremely new at this and just trying to find a way to add to my income. Any help and replies would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Z
