Can you really make serious money with domain names?

I would take a look at eBay completed listings for domain sales. This will give you an idea of how much certain domains will earn. You have to watch out, however, with trademarked domains, and there are some additional laws regarding getting domains tpo profit from someone else's name.

Hello George,

yes you can sell dormant domain names for a big price.

For example:
fish.com was sold for $1M
imagiethat.com was given out for $25,000.00
myonlieoffice.biz was given for $500
liveadworkabroad.com was given for $1,200
topix.com was given out for $1M
248.com for $200,000

ad the list continue.

I doing the above, you will need certai qualities and consideration.
You can actually sell at ebay, sedo, afteric, namedrive, and sitepoint.

It really depends on the name. Some say all the good ones are gone, but that depends on what you call a good one. What is a throw away to one person is exactly what another is looking for.

I sold a domain name last year for $5,000.00 - my asking price. It was snapped up so fast, I later thought I probably could have sold it for more.

Also about a year ago, I was watching the bidding on a domain name at Godaddy, but didn't see the final sale price, because I got distracted with something else I was doing. I quit watching the bidding at the 1.5 million mark. I would love to have owned that one.

I have 15 domain names left that have not been developed into websites. They were carefully chosen over a period of 2 years. As an idea for a site came to mind, I spent time choosing a name for it. I have seen some domain names that I knew someone on crack had to have pulled out of the air, they were so bad.

So, to give you my answer to your question - yes you can make money with domains, but most people don't. Before you buy a domain name, think of what you would use it for. If you can see it attached to a website, then it's quit possible that someone else will see it that way to. Who knows - you may be able to sell it for $5,000.00 one day, without batting an eyelash.

I know somone personally who bought a domain name for 7 bucks and flipped it for around 1K...

It all depends on the name and who is looking for it to fit there business.


Good luck!

Why not upload some content onto the domain. Maybe even make it a Wordpress site and then sell it? You will be making some revenue even if the domain does not eventually sell.
