[QUOTE="Gerry, post: 2235900, member: 82633"] First of all, and foremost, thank you for sharing such a wonderful view of your son and your wanting to ensure his future. I agree with Dlevi on this one...he needs a mentor. I have similar lists going back 15 years or more. The problem becomes selecting from that list of names (thousands at times) that is a gem. Your son seems to have a very analytical mind. The place to start are dropping domain lists (expired domains becoming available again). These dropping lists usually contain tons of useful analytics to measure the former (and future) success of a name. Typically those names that have been former sites, have aged well over the years, and still have traffic are a good place to start. Your son could then learn about "parking" domains to generate revenue. This is where traffic numbers come in handy...traffic still coming into that name or former website are now coming to your son. Parking names is not a road to riches but it will generate revenue to pay for renewals and put a little money in the bank. Most of all, even while parked a good name will get inquiries to purchase. Creating names is a never ending task and with the abundance of new extensions it will be exactly that...a waster of precious time that is a never ending task. Autism is, at many times, a fixation. If, IF, it would be possible to redirect his focus, I think there is potential for success, albeit a small one at first. I like that he is able to create sites and this could be another passion that is built upon. I wish you success and I look forward to your being a part of this forum with updates. Better yet, I look forward to meeting and greeting your son as a member of the forum. [/QUOTE]
