Backordering Your Domain Names

2008-05-13T12:45:00.000-07:00

As a domain player, you know that almost all the great domain names were taken before 1999. It is difficult now to get an even fairly decent domain name.

Sometimes, however, some registrants do not recognize that their domain names are pretty valuable and drop them after they find no application for their domain names.

That is when the backordering comes into play. Now you need to know that there may be many people waiting to backorder the same domain name. So it?s important to find a backordering service provider that can maximize your odds of getting the domain name for a minimal price. That could be quite some task.

The key for a successful backorder is to find a competent backordering service. Here are some tips for you to consider.

1) Choose a backorder service that works with quite some registrars. More registrars mean better odds for you to get the domain name you want.

2) Avoid the backorder service that places the domain name on auction. With such a service provider, you are not certain if you can get the domain name for a price you want to pay. Auctioneers are always seeking the highest bid for a domain name.

The bad news is that considering both 1) and 2), you may find that no service provider may meed your demand. As a matter of fact, almost all the backorder services are running an auction mode business.

Some major backorder service providers are listed here for your reference.

1) Snapnames.com. This may be the biggest. It works with a dozen of registrars. But that does not mean they can have a better chances than others to backorder a domain name. If the domain name is fairly of low grade, then they might be able to snap it for you. But for a great domain name, the competition is keen and chances are snapnames.com can not get it for you. Snapnames.com places the domain name backordered on auction. The auction goes for three days. In the end of the auction, they award the domain name to the highest bidder. A recent example is infodepot.com; snapnames.com awarded it to a bidder for $1250 for the domain name. The minimal bid is $60.

2) Pool.com. Pool.com?s business is similar to snapnames.com. They may work with fewer registrars. But sometimes they still have better chances of getting quite decent domain names. The minimal bid is $60.

3) Namewinner.com. Namewinner.com is part of dotster.com. They work with a few domain registrars. Occasionally, they can snap a few great domain names. They also place the domain names on auction. But the auction is done before they snap it. The minimal bid is $30. One thing that clients need to be aware that when you enter a so called extended auction. The so called extended auction is to sell the domain names Namewinner.com registered. Please be advised that there will be a $50 fee when you eneter such an auction. You not see any statement easily. So be advsied to keep off or be ready to apy $50.

4) Enom.com. Enom.com is an ICANN accredited registrar. I am not sure if they work with any other registrar(s). The minimal bid is $30. The features associated with the backordering look great. However, I personally do not have an experience with the service. But it does look nice after I look around inside an account.

5) GoDaddy.com. Godday.com is an ICANN accredited registrar. I guess they do not work with other registrars. This is one of those backordering services that do not place the domain name on auction. They charge an $18.95 flat for a backorder. The price looks great, but do not get excited too early. Three things will cool you down. A. Chances are they do not work with other registrars. So it?s not easy for them to get the domain name for you. B. For a good domain name, you can not even have a chance to place the backorder. C. No matter they win the domain name for you or not, you pay up front the fee and there is no refund. For the price you pay, if they fail to get the domain name for you, they monitor the domain name or you can place another backorder, which is not friendly to most people. It seems godaddy.com makes some money out of the process rather the result. People need to exercise caution when considering using them. One trap is their ?invest edge? service, which charges a monthly fee. This service allows you to place bulk backorders at a real low price. It sounds great to those who backorder a lot of domain names such as a professional domain player. But it's really not much of service that you can use. By trap, I mean that A) you can barely find any good domain name to order. Many good domain names may be backordered by others. Remember they only accept one backorder for one domain name. B. Godaddy.com will keep charging the monthly for the service even though you order the service just for one month. After you place the order for the invest edge service, they may send you an email saying that you need to cancel the service while in reality you do not order the service for more than one month. Be fearful for such a tactics. I personally do not recommend any of service at godaddy.com because of this.

When you consider a backordering service, the integrity is the key. This is particularly important when you backorder a first grade domain name that might be worth tens of thousands of dollars. How can you be sure that they will give such as domain name to you and not keep it for themselves? Who is most reliable and trustworthy can be everyone?s guess.

Among all the services I know, snapnames.com is the one I trusted most although they could not get you every domain name you want. They seem doing a fair business in any aspect you can imagine. I would recommend snapnames.com to those who seriously want to backorder a domain name! (Disclaimer: I do not have any affiliation with snapnames.com)

Parking at Sedo just don't work

2008-03-01T23:54:00.000-08:00

Parking at Sedo.com just don't work with some domain names. So, I decided to make a website with these two: InfoAzi.com and HowIDefeated.com. Based on the "free articles websites" scheme (thank you, articletrader.com), they are a Romanian website with news, articles, classifieds and humor and a health-about website, with articles on various diseases and true stories on how some people defeated their diseases.
So, have you defeated your disease? Go there and share your experience. Be a source of inspiration, motivation and hope for other people.

A very good article about parking. But is it the truth?

2008-02-14T14:46:00.000-08:00

If you’re thinking about getting into the domain parking industry then I’ll let you in on a little secret: The odds are stacked against you. This business has been dominated by a few big players for a while. If you’re starting from scratch, then you have as much chance to succeed in this game as a Tibetan monk with violent garlic allergies has at establishing himself as a dominant player in the Italian Mafia.

The domain parking industry is fundamentally flawed because it is passive. Any business plan that involves a lot of sitting around must eventually fail. It’s similar to any get-rich-quick scam that uses the phrase, “Just sit back and watch the money roll in!” I’ve heard countless eCommerce, Adsense and affiliate schemes that make this claim. They will tell you to have faith in their system, they will warn against doubters who want to steal your get-rich-quick dreams away from you. But I tell you: Don’t buy into anything that says, “Pay me $99.95 and I’ll tell you the secret to making money without having to work.”

Obviously some people make a living in the domain parking industry. I will tell you how they do it. First of all they have tons of awesome domains such as gardens.com or love.com. They do not depend on domains such as “ilikegardensalot.com” or “ireallylikelovealot.com.” Any domain with two or more words will probably never make back the money you spent to register it.

Be wary of buying domains that seem clever right now because they probably suck. You will discover this after it’s too late to cancel your domain choices and get a refund. It doesn’t even matter if you and all your friends think your domain names are clever. What matters is what the general masses think is clever.

Keep in mind that you need people to type your domain names manually. Search engines won’t help you because they hesitate to even acknowledge your parked pages. So you have to ask yourself honestly, “What are the chances of someone typing in ireallyreallylikegardensalot.com?” In order for your domain, ireallyreallylikegardensalot.com to pay for itself an average of one hundred separate people will have to type that entire domain every day.

You might try buying thousands of dollars worth of domains in hopes that they make more than what it cost to register them in the first place. If you purchased a domain from scratch that made $5 dollars more than what it cost you to register it per year, that would be a miracle. So what if you could find 10,000 similarly miraculous domains? Then you would have an administrative nightmare on your hands.

Another option is to purchase domains that are already popular. Suppose you bought a kick-ass domain for $20000. Suppose this domain was so awesome that it made you $1000 dollars per year on cash parking. How long will it take for this domain to pay for itself at that rate? 20 years.

Try to maintain a shrewd, business mindset. What’s the payoff here? What’s the timeframe before this investment starts to make a return above its original cost? Will the internet still exist by then?

There are a few domain parking companies that will do you right, such as NameDrive.com, Sedo.com or Godaddy.com. I am currently with Godaddy.com, making an average of 15 cents per click, which is unbeatable as far as I’ve seen. At this rate, I only need 10,000 clicks to break even. I’ve spent weeks’ worth of income and months’ worth of brainstorming energy to come this conclusion about domain parking: It’s not worth it.

Dfun.info - parking or not?

2008-02-14T14:21:00.000-08:00

It seems parking is not a very good option after all. For some domain names, of course. If the domain has a little or no organic traffic, it is a better option to host something on it. This is why I just installed a free flash games website on it.

Tehlist.com also contains some (good, I hope) articles on the "work-at-home" theme.
The other domains are getting small organic traffic. Not much, but it counts.

LinkReferral.com is another great source for free traffic, with a unique system. Take a look.

3 new domains

2008-01-04T07:28:00.000-08:00

are in my portfolio now. Tehlist.com, Osdevice.com and InfoAzi.com. The first domain is a typo from "thelist". OsDevice.com will be a mini-website with basic info, news and links related to OS devices. InfoAzi.com is romanian for "info today" and it will be a small website, containing only important information about currency exchange rates, astrology, weather, breaking news.

A new domain

2007-12-20T10:02:00.000-08:00

Two new domain names

2007-11-02T04:59:00.000-07:00

I have two new domain names: On0x.com and Pro-dating.info. The first has a "top sites" script on it, featuring top romanian blogs and the second is a "host images for free" website. These ones are not listed at Sedo.com
If you want to learn more about Romania (from a genuine romanian citizen), visit this blog.

Two more about Romania

2007-10-01T13:05:00.000-07:00

I have added two more domains. Both are interesting for people interested to buy (cheap) land in Romania: LandInRO.com and Land-in-RO.info, because the Romanian property market is providing spectacular opportunities for capital growth that are unmatched throughout Europe. Through 2007, the Romanian currency has been appreciating against US Dollar, Euro and Pound, providing additional growth potential for investors in Romanian property assets. Also, the real estate division for Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) of the General Electric giant, GE Real Estate, and Helios Phoenix, a joint venture between the British real estate investor Helios Properties and the Phoenix Real Estate developer, will invest €175 million in warehouses and distribution development in Romania.

I have two new entries

2007-09-28T10:06:00.000-07:00

There are two new entries on my list; two so called "typo domains": Wenbmaster.com and Wenbmaster.info. Interested in their price? Check these URLs: Wenbmaster.com & Wenbmaster.info

I'm the proud owner ;-) of 5 new domains: ChipsDir.com, ChipsDir.info, Cyyyk.info, Dm69.com and ZipMark.info. Wow!

New acquisition

2007-09-08T09:34:00.000-07:00

Today I bought MyFXTips.biz, MyFXTips.net, MyFXTips.info and MyFXTips.com. FX stands for "foreign exchange" or "currency exhange" or "forex". The forex market is open 24 hours a day, five days a week, with currencies being traded worldwide among the major financial centers of London, New York, Tokyo, Zürich, Frankfurt, Hong Kong, Singapore, Paris and Sydney - spanning most time zones.

The forex is the largest market in the world in terms of the total cash value traded, and any person, firm, or country may participate in this market. Even you, yes, YOU may participate. Create an account (and get a $5.00 BONUS) and become a forex trader.

Sedo had decided to hold...

2007-09-05T11:13:00.000-07:00

...their 2nd annual SedoPro Partners Forum June 17-19, at the Mohonk Mountain Resort near New Paltz, New York.

Would you like to be there? ;-)

Some INFOs

2007-08-29T13:12:00.000-07:00

I just bought 4 new domains: Elite-Logos.com, HotPizda.info, TopPizda.info and BestPizda.info. I know .info domains are less valuable, but I think I made a good decision. They will get value over time.

If you want to get money with this domain business, you must have a lot of good domain names. The domain names must be short, powerful words. Shorter the better. Avoid long names or names like this: www.our-hot-money-on-the-net.com. They are bad domain names. Speaking of which, I just bought five new domain names: HotPizda.com, SpicyPizda.com, AdultPizda.com, EroticPizda.com and BestPizda.com. Why this choice? Because pizda is the Romanian and Russian word for this thing. Of course I hope a lot of Romanians and Russians will visit my websites. I'm going to buy more domains soon.
