The Buying and Selling of Domains

[Jayson]

Who is into domaining? What have you sold or bought? Is there anything worth mentioning especially? Do you feel you could make a living in this thing or have it as a hobby or side-hustle?

I'm yet to try this type of freelance work. Buying and selling domains is more commonly known as Domain Flipping. If you had enough practise at Domain Flipping, anyone could make a living out of it.

I've only ever bought domains for personal use in projects. Didn't even know people make money off of this type of thing!

I wouldn't even know where to start tbh...

You need sell-able domains and more than that, a large list of potential buyers. It's not an easy biz.

What online marketplace(s) would you recommend? I'm looking for one which protects me from being scammed. It seems a profitable sector to get into. Thank you for your help and advice.

• Sedo
• Afternic
• Park.io
• Digital Point Domain Marketplace

What a great list, Jayson, and a massive thank you for spending your time writing this for me. Shortly, I'm going to research into the marketplaces that you've mentioned. Cheers for the advice!

Some domaining seems silly, like how Chinese will pay thousands for nonsense numbers like 849058390583905.com. I'm not joking. In fact, these combos have been hunted down to extinction.

Am not yet into it. It's obvious a living can be mad from it depending on how competent enough one is carrying on with

As with a store, a person could be up an inventory of domains. However, that requires a serious investment maybe.
