          I go and find the deals first or create the deals and then go and hunt the domains for the deals.

          Everyone else seems to be doing it the other way around, buying domains and then figuring out what to do with them or who to sell them to.

            I just bought 10 domains on Friday. They were overlooked expired domains. I paid reg fee only. I put a deal together already with a buddy of mine that owns a company that specializes in the biz sector they theme too. They will make me back about about $25,000 to $50,000 a week with what we're doing with them.
            No such thing as overlooked expired domains. Perhaps overlooked potential, but never overlooked expired domains. At least not reg-fee pickups. I assure you the hunters know what's out there, if your domains weren't picked up, it was for a reason.

            This thread is in regard to high end domain speculating. Not registration fee pickups with potential. Any domain can be developed into a profitable website. However it takes a premium generic domain to pull 3x,4x, upto 10x's your initial investment within a week. Great profit margin when you consider the domain cost between $10k-$50k.

                    Bro it's not the 10 $6.95 domain names that make the difference in your case tho, it's the insight and connections too.

                      Hey,

                      You wonder why you've not made it, you make excuses to justify your lack of success. Here's a hint buddy if you did not know, I'm under 21 myself. I'll leave it at that, as my A & E biography is not public domain (pun intended). Yet, I've still made a small, yet impactful splash in this business.

                            In a sense, it's' true there are only so many quality domains but for brokering the potential is still somewhat unlimited. Are you looking for development or simple reselling ? You can buy a quality name for say $5,000 from the right person and easily sell it for $50,000 the next day with no money. There's a method to this, and I know AVM for example has done this. There are brokers you can contact to find names for you, so that you don't have to do that work yourself.

                              Well yeh Bru, but

                              Anyone can have insight.

                              Anyone can build connections.

                              And I certainly don't have a monopoly on either.

                                    Everyone has their own way of playing the game.

                                    Their own strategy and long or short term plans.

                                    There are lots of ways to play. Lots of way to win.

                                    People laughed at Rick's strategy for many years and they all are eating crow now.

                                        Not just instinctive insight, but Rick also shares all his knowledge freely with almost anyone who will listen.

                                            I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,
                                            I can tell them that I work with the mentally retarded.

You will not make $25k-$50k off a handful of registration fee domains, in itself. Could you make that with millions in marketing? Sure. But not standalone.

However, as stated earlier, you will not find a domain go uncaught, that has standalone potential. It's unfortunate, but true. Once I said this, you made the "think out of the box" statement, in an attempt to condescend my thoughts. Now, it seems we're in mutual agreement.

In hopes of replicating your success. Posts like yours are good, they inspire and give hope. My posts? They make people angry and often leaves me in conflict with them. However I just hope my posts opens their eyes. Even for a brief moment. I want my posts to convey the real cut throat nature of this industry. If my posts reflect this, I'm happy.
