“Most domainers are unwilling to pay for really good domains.” Fix & Flip takes some imagination and can’t always be done for ‘reg fees.’

We’ve re-branded Numbers That Work into Crossover Business Names; clever crossover names designed to integrate marketing for web, phone and branding.

The domain name becomes the business name and brand that says, “Call us. We answer the phone!”

I’ve been in this forum before, and if you post or advertise anything regarding domain names for sale you get bombarded with stupid comments and negative connotations about squatting.

Like alot of the end users, very few insurance agents understand the real value of a keyword domain.

Leonard. There’s nothing hypocritical about domainers buying names at regfee. If you are talking about domainers not buying domains because they are expensive, I think you’re clearly referring to only a certain segment of domainers. Most domainers I know buy good domains and pay the premium for those.

@Jamie – I usually tell people to go there (although I tell them DomainTools.com), look up the name, and see if it shows any listings at the top of the page.

It is kind of amusing or maybe even hypocritical that domainers will complain about the lack of demand for their domains. As we went about a marketing campaign to end users we found hundreds of real companies with so-so to even horrible domains. Those domains had to be reg fee but what do many domainers focus their efforts on? Looking for reg fee available domains or maybe on occasion paying up to $79 to Snapnames or Namejet. Most domainers are unwilling to pay for really good domains.

“You can often times buy a good quality domain that will drive traffic and business for $1,000″

I push this a lot Andrew and wanted to hear your take on it.. I send people to Whois.sc, as I think it’s the easiest.

What’s your take on the best place to tell the mass about where to go if the domain they are interested in is “taken”?

Hi!
I’m new here, and I want to sell a decent domain!

InsurancePlanBenefits.com

It makes a little profit after paying for renewal costs.

Contact me, noobie at easywebpages (at) gmail.com

The money I make from the sale will be used by me, but a portion of it will be used to buy Andrew some knee-high moccasins and a Bob Dylan poster. This I promise!!
