PearlEarrings.com sale finalized

nam.es — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 13:49:48 +0000

Today I finally received my $42,500 for PearlEarrings.com that was sold during domainfest live auction.

I wish new owner good luck with it, I consider it a good investment. As it is a popular jewelry product, fees from referral sales are pretty high and it is a decent search volume as well.

I was surprised mensjewelry.com didn’t sell at it’s low xxx,xxx reserve though. Since it’s ~1,000,000 combined exact search volume for [men's jewelry] and [mens jewelry]. That’s a lot. And it converts really well even with the low amount of traffic it is getting now, since SEO didn’t pump in it yet.

The one thing is a fact. People are starting to pay high money for domains that can earn money(besides stupid parking type-ins).

Hey friends, since the last video in June 2009 I received TONS of emails(no shit). And people had many questions regarding different aspects of domaining, development, sales, negotiations, how to buy a domain from non-domainer, etc. etc.

So what I come up with is this. Post a comment under this thread including the subject that you are interested in. And I will group them up in videos and will give you answers based on my expertise.

Sounds good? Fair offer for you, free advices are never bad.

Nice private domain forum, people inside are friendly. Really.

Considering that most of the time I don’t have 60+ minutes to tell about something. I decided to change the blog layout. So I can have fresh content a bit more frequently.

That doesn’t mean that videos are not coming though. I will try to get new video up and running soon. Have few important things to share.

Stay tuned.
