What is Active Domaining?

There is a method to the madness of active domaining - I've noticed that domain names are worth more when something of value has been added to them. Basically, it's about value-adding with blog posts and experimenting within various niches to see which are the best, and then selling off the rest.

This flies in the face of conventional blogger wisdom - that of having one or two blogs and working them hard. At the least, I'll end up with a bunch of domain names that are worth more than their purchase price - and if things work out, they might work out very well.

Helpful links for new domainers 

Following are some helpful links to get you started:

  • NamePros.com is a very useful and open forum dedicated to domaining.

  • DoshDosh has a useful article on 26 different forums that include domaining information and SEO/marketing (and it is where I learnt about NamePros.com).

  • Overture's Keyword Selector Tool is ostensibly for keyword popularity - it will give you an idea about how popular a given domain name might be based on the combination of words within the name.
