namealot is on a distinguished road

I sold a few domains and found and a lot of people I have seen trying to sell them just don’t do anything they buy it and think the money will role in

Why? having a domain that does not list has no traffic has no web presence and does nothing but exists Is no threat or gives no incentive for a company to buy it as its not taking any trade or viewers etc away from them

You have to push the market to make them think they need it? The kudos of the name a presence, something they will be the only one with (the reality is the name does nothing if it does not list and you can make any word list) make a web site get it listed high make it presence known

I had a name that I knew would work well with a company but they showed no interest at all you often can’t get past the receptionist or they have no one in the company who could make the decision to buy a domain or even that the web exists

So I had a hundred balloons made with the domain name my number on it stood outside a company gave there workers a balloon as they went in (they must have thought I was mad) The MD took one within two days I’d sold the name for £12k the balloons cost £60 the name £2.58 quite a nice profit for 1 hours work
be proactive with your sites its like any business don’t just sit on them If you put the effort in you will get the rewards
