regging domain names!

Iam trying to cut down on buying names that I will never develop

but regged discjockey.org.uk this morning for example no idea why, its got no history and the local searches are not great...

is there a Domain Anonymous i can sign up to, yes the .uks are available but it was hard not to get them, so maybe the plan is working ;)
 
Have a rule that you must either develop or sell one of your existing domains before regging a new one. A one for one rule if you like. As I'm sure you know, this is pretty important to your profitability, as accumulating domains that you will never do anything with is just burning money.

If you reg through companies rather than your own tag, you could try using blocking software to block all the domain regging sites!!

Simple way is what I am trying to do now, if it doesn't have a minimum of 20k UK exacts per month on a product with a decent price tag or it's not likely to sell to and end user then don't bother.
 
Start developing and/or selling some of your best domains and think of the profit to be made :D
 
You will soon stop when in two years you have all these useless domains that need renewing for about £2k :D
 
cheers guys

may have a NO domain reg August to see if I can not get a new one for the whole month.

I have sold a few this month - but topped them up ;)

yes developing is the key Iam looking at various affliate tools so may need some logos done - but thats for another thread.

Let me know if you need a logo wilco and i'll have a go free of charge. not promising it will be any good but if you decide to use it i may want to put it in a portfolio on a site. i have a logo site on the dev list but haven't decided if i'm any good at doing them yet! :???:

That one hit the nail on the head for me :D

I am not so quick to reg new names now

Take up heroin instead - soon you won't have any money to reg names with, and according to Harry Hill, the only problem is, it's "very moorish apparently".

Also, non-domainers will look on you in a better light, instead of one of those evil cyber-squatters; coming over 'ere, taking our names...!


NB. Always consult with your doctor before deciding to develop a drug problem (they often get the best gear)

If there good and they have good exacts buy them

if not dont. Developing is the way forward giving you a more attractive tangible

asset to sell . :)
