What is your participation level currently in the domain industry, are you full time, part time, hobbyist?
What are you saying??? There are people making money doing this??? I am strictly a collector/hobbyist. (These names are like my children...how could I sell one and live with myself???)
Q3 is always weak from my experience. Including Q3 2019.I reluctantly cast my vote for Part-Time, running at a loss. For the last several months (as my one-year renewals come due), I've been stuck in the near-profit range. It will only take one good sale to move me to the other side, but it seems like a long wait.
FT over decade...
I dont do too much domain flipping but I do run quarterly auctions on large platforms. For me, its organized, and I not only cover renewals, but I profit pretty well.
This is an interesting idea - I should have started domaining 15 or 20 yeas ago! Seriously, it is smart I think to build your portfolio while you still have a regular income, and then look at it as income generating in retirement.my hand regged domains from now, will be 10-15 years old!
I closely manage my domains (daily for about an hour). I hold about 500 domains and I usually auction them in lots of 50-100 at a time. I generate about 3-5k per quarter with the auctions.Silentptnr, I'm curious to know more about your auctions. Do you have some kind of listing strategy that works well?
I would have to settle between two answer options - have been doing as a hobby but that pays too, for the past two decades!What is your participation level currently in the domain industry, are you full time, part time, hobbyist?
Thank you so much for sharing your personal story that is inspirational and probably a view of domaining most of us did not consider. The very best in every way, both in domaining and in life. I have always valued your positive contributions to NamePros @BradWilson and now will appreciate them even more knowing your personal story.My current participation level is way more complex than just one of these survey options. To me it's more about learning, recovery, being better and enjoying the process.
