没买下来啊。

郁闷。我想到买的时候已经被别人买走了。

很便宜，但是挺好听。

做个BOT先关的BLOG 之类的应该挺爽的。

类似 PCPOP啊    都是很热门的站点呢。

There are quite a few approaches to domains and domaining that domainers take. Its like the stock market or real estate market to a certain extent, everyone has their own strategy and most of them pay well for their proponents. I’ve pretty much seen most of the types and will try and enumerate them to enable you to follow what you’d rather be doing.

The Investor
These are the sharpest of them all. Buy good quality when prices are low, hold long term, sell high. These guys hold onto assets, maybe even develop them, ensure that they’re hot and in demand when the market is totally ripe, then sell them. The advantages of emulating this type is that you can afford to sell 1% of your portfolio each year and still manage to pull in the major bucks. The downside is renewals, unless your portfolio generates enough revenue, this cost needs to be factored in. People like Frank Schilling, Rick Schwartz, Sahar Sarid, Adam Dicker, Michael Goldman and probably most of the other big ticket guys will be found in this group.

The Flipper
These guys live to make a fast buck and sometimes the ‘buck’ can be a hundred thousand dollars or more on great buys. They know exactly which domain they can sell and to whom and for how much. If they can buy domains that they can sell immediately (1hr to 3 months) for higher valuation, they’re very liable to take the deal. This kind can be equated to the floor traders of yore. They’re fast, nimble and never hold large portfolios, in fact some only have the one domain they want to sell, right now, before moving on the next big deal. There is a lot of money to be made this way too, however its short term, here and now. So if you don’t sell, you don’t churn. I’ve seen some huge success stories in this lot too, Derek Giordano and Reece Berg are top of the mind here.

The Developer
Theres one more breed of domainer who makes money by doing something with their properties, hand regs, niche domains and the type. They take the domain, develop it, add content, do seo, market it and voila, eventually these low value domains become decent value properties. So $20 on a domain + $500 developing could easily lead to a sale, a few months down the line, in the $5000 range. Guys who do this have substantial skills in development, seo and promotion, without which this is just not possible. You could outsource development but then that could also kill your profit margins here. Guys who do this with some success include Adrian Allen and Lord Brar.

The Builder
A lot of people build websites on domains for their own selves. They are not looking to sell the sites or even would even with good offers, simply because the sites normally create more opportunities than can be equated into the bottomline as credit. These type of domainers are actually a major credit and can be found among all the types listed above. Top names that come to mind include Justin Allen and Tan Tran.

The Monetizer
These guys are only interested in the traffic revenues. They’re happiest buying domains that get traffic and make money via parking or similar. In fact some of the biggest deals in the past have included portfolios of well known monetizers. Now of course this particular breed has been overrun by big time players with hundreds of millions of dollars invested and go under the guise of ‘media companies’. This is probably the holy grail of domaining, whats better than pointing a domain to an automatic page and let clicks get you revenues? Kevin Ham, Yun Ye, NameMedia, DemandMedia and others fit into this group, as they do elsewhere but a vast majority of their revenues probably come from this.

i-port.com 这个貌似 我看到过去年，好像卖很便宜几十美金的样子，没买。后悔呀。。。。

我是将一个org  1$  转让给国外的一位网友。
这个域名是3月26日掉落
我在3月24日PUSH给买家。

PUSH 以后，就赶火车旅行去了。
回来，发现几个紧急PM,他说他没有收到GODADDY的邮件，SPAM里面也没有。

只好申请重发。

突然发现，那几天打不开GODADDY的网站，问了其他几个城市的朋友，也是同样的状况。

只好拜托OWNTAG兄 帮忙尝试一下 ,27日，看能不能renew.

提示在pushing状态，无法renew.
后来没办法，28日，仍然无法打开godaddy，所以，发EMAIL给SUPPORT，让他们帮忙重新发一下PUSH的邮件。

今天早上发现 域名已经到了 买家的帐户。
但是很奇怪的。

掉落日期 是：Expiration Date:26-Mar-2009 18:52:38 UTC
Status:OK
[B]Status:AUTORENEWPERIOD[/B]（请问是什么意思？？？？:whoknows）

买家PM我，问我什么时候 RENEW的？？难道我renew成功了？当时提示无法renew的呀？？

从昨天晚上就发现打不开了。。。。

 我晕死。。

godaddy是全球第一大域名注册商，同时也是主机服务商。
据说是被 G.F.W弄掉了。HTTPS的站点呀。G.F.W太牛了。
在国内有很多人靠GODADDY吃饭。代理域名，或者域名交易，或者出售主机。
应该是影响了不少人的生意。

至少我是现在有个域名没办法交易，跟买家谈了一下，推迟交易。。。。
godaddy为什么会打不开呢？？真是奇怪。
如果是被封。没理由呀。不懂。。。

1   baihe.com花了1万多RMB才 是从蔡文胜手上买的。买家说他的女朋友酷爱百合。

2 yobo.com 花了$250从老外手上买到。WOW。现在这个域名要几千美金了估计。理由是自己的dog叫这个名字。看来老外真的很喜欢狗狗。

趣闻待续，请大家补充。
