OMG over 1000 .co.uk's

I've just checked and I own more than 1,000 domain names.

I would best describe myself as a developer rather than a domainer, however in reality I think I need to consider selling some of my domains.

I recall someone saying, I think it was a podcast, that every little domain is like a child and you never want to get rid of it.. Umm, do I need a session at domainers anonomous?

Any suggestions, how do you cope?

That equates to 3.5k PA or £10 per day in reg fees

Sell some, put them in classes of 1 to 5 and sell all of class 4 and 5 with class 1 being the best.

Sometimes you just have to let go and move on

Best of luck

magazines, umm, about 200 at last count lol. Yep, I agree selling some off them would be a good option.

Anyone know any domainers who will look and value 1000 individual domains? I don't think I've got the time/skills to sell many at a time, and transfers etc can be a right pain lol.

Rating them 1 to 5 seems like a good idea though, I might give that ago.

I would say don't buy any more until you've attempted to market and sell some of your existing ones.

Build yourself a portfolio site and put all your names on it, add the site to your sig here. It's a start at least.
