AI continues its run at #1. Agentic, which showed up at 5th in May, vanished from June's top 20 entirely.
A friend asked me today when I first started investing in domain names. As I looked back, I just realized it has already been more than 20 years. My domain investing journey began on July 21, 2006. At the time, I wanted to register a domain for my own company and discovered that it was listed for sale, that was when I first learned domains could actually be traded. I then searched for news about domain transactions and came across the story of the https://t.co/hm9bvplacA sale, which showed me just how valuable domain names could be. Excited by the discovery, I went ahead and registered a few domain names that I believed would make me RICH. The very first one I registered was https://t.co/lxx1KNlTo2. Looking back now, I can’t even remember why I chose those particular keywords that day, or why I went with a .net extension. 🤣But none of that matters. From that day on, I fell in love with domain name investing. It has become my most important hobby. True passion makes the long years worthwhile. 😀
First of all, thank God. Sold https://t.co/rNS0vXVxn6 last month. Thanks to @atomHQ
I like to share story behind that.
In 2023, I hand-registered https://t.co/tnwJ51SCEh and submitted it to @atomHQ Premium. It was initially approved at $3,499, but I felt the AI market was just getting started, so I removed it. Later, I resubmitted it and Atom approved it in the $22k-$45k range. After further market research and a pricing review, I listed it at $77k.
A buyer came in at $50k. Following a negotiation strategy I learned from @TonyNames , I kept my floor at $50k and asked the broker to push higher. The buyer ultimately agreed to $70,000.
Huge thanks to the #domain community for all the knowledge shared along the way, and special thanks to @MichaelCyger , whose comment on my first sale gave me the confidence to keep going.
Sometimes the biggest difference between a $3,499 sale and a $70,000 sale is having the patience and conviction to hold the right asset.
