Domain Name Investment

Domain Name Investment is the new Holy Grail amongst thousands of investors throughout the whole world today.

The concept that you can buy a name for a small fee then resell it for millions of dollars is the rags to riches story we all dream of.

Truth is, that that kind of story happens very rarely, but there are people out there who do it, and even more people or businesses who simply make a living from the purchase, development and resale of domain names.

Domain Name Investor, my latest creation, specialises in what I perceive to be important parts of the internet which I believe will see further growth in future years.

I mainly invest in .co.uk and .eu Domains, which I especially feel has room for future expansion as the EU expands to include more Eastern European countries with younger, more tech-savvy populations, but also own domains as far afield as India and the USA.

And where to buy these domain names? Well, the cheapest .eu domain name seller I've found is BuyDomains, which works out about £6 per .eu domain, while 123-reg seems to be a decent balance between cost, at approx £3 per .co.uk domain.

If you're looking for just a single domain, with high traffic potential, I highly recommend One. They are a Danish company but provide their domain and hosting services worldwide in many different languages. The price and the service are both superb.

You can also visit Servage for web hosting of multiple sites and if you just want to buy domain names, visit BuyDomains.

Hi, a good guide you give there to domaining newbies and those who are interested in it, :)

I have also found out that it can also be profitable to become a domain & hosting reseller.

Whats good about a reseller is that its all automatic, you dont have to think about webdesign, programming and so on, the largest companies that lets one be reseller has an all automatic system, where the only thing one has to do is make your own logo. :)

Its been a while since I was in the domain business, so I dont know which companies is good now, but back then I used this one:
77gb.com

Best regards,
