Here’s an excellent idea: List them for sale on sedo.com and then forget about them until one of two things happens.
You decide to use them or…
… you get an email from Sedo from someone who is offering to buy one of your domain names.
You never know if or when this might happen, but why not try? One marketer I know of did this with his domains. Six months later, he got an email from Sedo saying someone offered $100 for one of his domains. He wasn’t interested in taking such a low offer, so he countered with $2,000 to see what would happen.
The buyer countered with $300, disagreed with $1800, and after several emails and a counteroffer later, he sold it for $950. Not bad for a $9 investment. Sedo took a cut, and he got the rest.
And while he did have plans for that domain name, he figures he can choose a different but similar name when the time comes – no big deal.
There’s no guarantee you’ll sell your domains this way or make a lot of money if you do. But as you know, domains have sometimes sold for ridiculous amounts. There’s no harm or fee for listing your part, so why not try and see what happens? You have nothing to lose and potentially an excellent fat check for trying it.
Plus, if you’re creative and do some market research on hot topics and keywords, you could start registering new and marketable domains with a high chance of selling when you list them in a domain marketplace like Sedo.com and turn this strategy into a full-time business. Some people are already doing this now. Why not you too?
