Free Hustle Tip: Making BANK on domain names

Yall bump this shit to show some love. There's no limit to this shit so just because someone got a nice domain doesn't mean you can't get yours. The only limit is your IMAGINATION.

Background: People NORMALLY identify websites through their DOMAIN NAMES. Example: google.com , yahoo.com, etc. Many people invest strictly in domain names. These are called domainers. Here's some background on these ballers: http://money.cnn.com/magazines/business2/business2_archive/2005/12/01/8364591/index.htm

Domainers will buy a domain that has TRAFFIC they can make money off. There's 3 ways they do this.

1) Buying expired domains that had some traffic. Buy a SHITLOAD of these and either resell or make money off Pay Per click programs. Here's a story on a dude that made over HUNDRED MILLION BUCKS doing this shit: http://paul.kedrosky.com/archives/002073.html

2) Buying TYPOS. For example a hot new pornsite opens up and gets MILLIONS of hits. It gets branded heavily. A domainer buys the typo variations of it and makes money sending traffic TO the same site (as an affiliate) and gets paid bank for just kicking back and watching the typos and bad spellers roll in! The sponsor does all the heavy work branding their shit and domainer just chills and collects PAPER on the lost traffic. How fucking CAKE is that?

3) Buying domains based on traffic trends. Using sophisticated tools and databases, they figure out the new trends in traffic and buy type in domains for those. Example: Nike is releasing a new product that uses regular words as its name.... example like new shoe by nike. Domainer will buy newshoe.com or nushoo.com or newshoo.com and other variations. Nike can't do shit cuz that name comprises of COMMON words. Now if Nike came up with nikeaza or some weird shit like that. If you try to swoop in on a domain, you might get your ass handed to you. Anyway, this one of the methods domainers find names.

Despite the effort above, domainers are still looking for domains that have traffic. And that's where YOU (the average brotha) comes in....... Come up with a distinctive name involving a product type or hobby that you like. Example: Movie333 or some shit like that. Something distinctive and easy to remember. Here's how you make money off that domain

1) Come up with a SHORT but easy to remember combo of words or words and numbers. Example: Reyreyvids, liltang23, etc etc

REgister it at godaddy or enom or whatever cheap domain registrar. It's usually around $9 a year. Register it for 10 years. Less than $100 for your domain.

2) Park that shit on SEDO.com so you get paid for straggler traffic. The key here is to get a traffic history for your domain.

3) Put that shit on anything you can think of. Your myspace page, friendster, personal profile pics with the domain, anything. Just MARKET THE FUCK out of it. Put it in your email signature line. If punk bitches forward chain emails to your ass, put that shit on there and pass it back to the fool that sent it to you. Use that shit as your sig. Whatever. Just get it out there.

Key point here: No need to know how to build websites. The key is to have your domain associated with whatever you do online. The more you use the net, the more your domain gets out there. Make it a habit.

4) Keep doing that shit and hang on to the domain. Watch your traffic at sedo or wherever you parked it. Once you get enough traffic you can put it up for auction at sedo and other sites like it or ebay.


This doesn't take that much effort. The key is to do this shit as a HABIT. It is like real estate...price only goes up with time and increased exposure. LITTLE TO NO SKILLS INVOLVED.

If you like what you've read, go out there and Start DOING YOUR THING!!! Action, brothas, is what's rewarded. Too much analysis = paralysis and same old shit different day. It's up to you... to make that paper.


If you appreciate this post, share it with your boys and fam. Share the wealth. Since there only limit is your imagination and hardwork, feel free to share this info since you won't lose your shit if someone else gets theirs since yall be targetting different domains anyway.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you actually want to DEVELOP your domain into a website, I suggest use it for a BLOG. Blogs are a great way to make money online. They cost about $100 or $200 to get up and running but you can make that money back quickly if you keep pushing it. Here's the thread where I talk about that: http://198.65.131.81/board/showthread.php?t=173572

Easiest way to turn $100 into some passive cash and several hundred bucks (if not thousands if you do it right) down the line.

Step 1: Go to Godaddy.com or namecheap.com or any other place that sells domain names.

Step 2: Come up with an easy to remember domain name. Like 8pimp8 or something like that. Gotta be easy to remember and short.

Step 3: Register that shit for at least 5 years. Pay $50 to $100. That's all.

Step 4: Go to sedo.com or some other domain parking service. Park that shit and put in your name and address so they can pay you for any clicks that comes in from your domain.

Step 5: Put that domain in your myspace page, nonclickable sig, or wherever will let you drop text that says 8pimp8.com or whatever your domain is.

Step 6: Keep pimping that shit and just getting it in front of so many damn eyeballs. Track your traffic at sedo. If you start making enough clicks from that shit, it's time to sell.

Step 7: Sell on ebay or sedo or some other domain auction site. People WILL buy your shit if there's decent traffic to it. So make it a habit to pimp your domain whatever the fuck you're doing online.

Step 8: Repeat at step 1.

well now that its out there, the market will be flooded.

Not really. There's HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of domains out in the market for sale right now and many are being sold. Each is being bought and sold based on their traffic and market category. You really can't say all of them are the same. So, like I said in the first post, the only limit to how well you do is your imagination. Don't compete with others, compete with yourself. Keep pimping your domains!

Excellent info very much appreciated, D-town approx. how much u made off this method?

I paid off my a nice chunk of my student loans with this shit. I have other hustles (affiliate marketing) but this is the only hustle I can share freely since there's no competition (each domain's value totally depends on how much exposure you give it or if you thought up domains that are being searched for heavily).

great question. How much does a typical domain go for? What would you consider a good sale? Great drop player. Got a great idea for marketing a hybrid car. This slogan would change the game

That's true, i have a domain i bought 4 months ago for $39, nothing on it. Just to create an email address with my business' name. I keep getting offers from folks who wanna buy the domain. It started at 1G, 2Gs i even turned down 5Gs!! I did that cauz the hustle is making me more than what they are offering. But I will definitely create another domain TODAY!!!
