Hello One and All

[36player]

Hi Everyone. I'm new to all of this domaining. I have a friend who deals in domains and seems to do well out of it and 3 years ago when i was setting up my business and sorting out a website i bought a load of domains and fell into the old age trap of "this is a quick money maker" buying and selling domains. Funnily enough i still own around 20 domains and have done nothing about them as i don't have the knowledge base needed (much to my friend amusement) and all that happened i just got lost in the world of domain names.
Anyway i will stop boring you all and just say i was recommended this forum yesterday and so i hope to make some friend and also gain some knowledge and you never know maybe do some trading but before all that i can see from the threads already placed its all about research, research, research, so this will be my first step reading up on everything.
Just for a laugh and to keep up the tradition i would say through my minimal knowledge my worst domain is
cheapestcontracthire.com
and the best
perfectinvestment.com

No guessing what my business is.

Welcome 36player.

The nice thing about getting into domains today is there is a wealth of information. - In "My Day" you just learnt by wasting your money.

Look forward to seeing some of your others.

Perfectinvestment in a .com - seems perfectly OK (I'd want the plural to go with it though)

Welcome 36player have you any .co.uk domains good or bad

perfectinvestment.com - Who would you sell it to? The name is "nice" but it's a brandable, so in my view it's a hold and hope (a lot of hoping). I think a lot domainers bought share / investment domains because they're interested in investment, but the reality is that the domains are hard to shift because it's not a consumer market.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. This is all a bit new to me but i'm finding it very interesting.
To answer your questions, yeah i have some .co.uk domains, not really sure how good they are, as i said bought a load not knowing the business (stroke of genius)
ladiescountryclothing.co.uk
womenscountryclothing.co.uk
menscountryclothing.co.uk
gentscountryclothing.co.uk
childrenscountryclothing.co.uk
kidscountryclothing.co.uk
yourspecialtoy.co.uk
myspecialtoy.co.uk
contracthirecheapdeals.co.uk
webyanycar.co.uk
wecanbuyanycar.co.uk
cheapestcontracthire.co.uk
perfectinvestment.co.uk
sexypornfilms.co.uk

I have a feeling that there is nothing there that anyone would get excited about but as long as i learn from the mistake i guess there is something to come out of it.
