    There is a clickbank product called "Domain Flipping By The Millionaire Society". It seems to be a big seller on the clickbank marketplace for whatever that's worth. It might be a good place to start if you're looking for information on domain flipping. By the way,were you referring to domain flipping?

    Gene Pimentel's course is the best. That's all you need, believe me.

    At this stage I would recommend newbies stay out of the domaining industry. The likelihood of today's newbie turning an overall profit is remote.

    But if you must get involved, you'll want to properly vet the source of the info you are buying since domaining courses are generally written by pretenders. Ask them what domains were their previous 5-10 sales, approximate dates of sale and selling prices. If they refuse to answer, move on.

    Check out Zach Bookers DomainFlipping.org, he has a wso here on the forum

    http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-...hen-500-a.html

    I can vouch for this product, he has really gone all out and built a very high quality product here with tons of good information..

    This is "not" your typical 20 page ebook wso.. Honestly one of the better products I have ever purchased from the forum.

    I've never read any of the ebooks out there, so I can't recommend any, but I doubt you'll find anything new in them that you can't find for free on one of the many domain related forums online.

    My biggest advice to you would be to try and get into selling domains in the $150 - $800 range to the end user. Don't get into huge niche markets hoping to sell names for thousands of dollars.

    Marketing to the end user should be a huge part of your work. Focus on small niche markets, like GEO services. Buy generic CitynameService.com domain names, build a list of local businesses in that industry and market it to them directly. Don't just park a name and think people are going to come knocking. I would however park all your domains at GoDaddy Auctions with a Buy It Now price, they seem to get more end user buyers there than any of the other auction services, and, if the domain is registered with Godaddy, the whole sale and transfer is completely automated (including money deposited into your Paypal)

      Flipping was easier BEFORE ICANN released the start of hundreds of new extensions. No one knows how this will impact quick flipping.
      Looking at this weeks domain sales there does not appear to be any shortage of buyers - Huge Wave of New Domain Sales Data Floods This Week's Chart With* Big Numbers Including the Highest .Net Sale Ever Reported. I doubt the new extensions will have any impact on the sales of quality domain names.

      Ask yourself: WHY would someone spend $100 when they can hand reg the same domain with another new extension for $10!
      Its a good point. But, this is not a new problem. So many people, when they start buying domain names, are confused about what domain name to buy - .info, .net, .co etc. The new extensions just complicate things some more. Spellings, word combinations as well as domain name extensions have always been a source of confusion. Beers.com is worth loads and Beerz.info isn't - but explaining the massive difference in values between the two domain names to someone who is new is often a challenge.

    Ever since I began flipping domains over 10 years ago, there has always been the uninformed argument that there are many other TLDs to choose from, so .COM is less valuable. New TLDs are released often, and it's a huge money grab for the registrars. However, .COM, to this day, reigns far supreme in terms of what the market wants and the selling price.

    It is vital for any long term business to own the .COM version of their domain name. Otherwise, they are bound to lose a steady stream of customers and leads to whoever does own the .COM. That's just the way it is. The public at large defaults to typing in .COM regardless of what the actual TLD is. And that's how it will be for the foreseeable future.

    From a domainer's standpoint, .COM sells for 3 to 10 times more money on average than any other TLD. They also sell MUCH faster. There's nothing worse than having an inventory of domains that sits there far too long and you have to renew hundreds of them every year, or let them drop and lose your investment. That's why I, as a domainer, deal only with .COM domains.

    That's not to say other TLDs don't sell. They clearly do. However, it takes more effort and time to find buyers for anything other than a .COM.

    Diamonds are much more valuable and desirable than other gems because they are more scarce. It's the same with .COMs vs other TLDs.
