What is a Domain Flipper?

Posted August 30th, 2009

Domain names are registered to individual users, which means they can only be used by one website at a time. If you want a domain name that somebody has already registered, then the only way you can get this it to buy it from them, and Domain Flippers have turned this into a profitable business, by buying and registering domain names and then selling them on for a higher price.

Choosing Domain Names for Resale
If you want to make any money at Domain Flipping you will need to be very careful about which names you choose, as there is not point buying up lots of domain names that no one will want. Do some research into the kinds of popular domain names currently out there, and avoid selecting any long complicated names, as the most sought after domain names are short and succinct.

Where to Sell Domain Names
Once you have some domain names you can then visit community forums, blogs and auction sites to post them for sale.
