hi,
on the negative side, I bought a domain here which I was told had a 4 figure ovt w/e and actually I believed it and I put 100$ down the drain.
I didn't earn a penny from that domain. :dead:
the sad part is that I wasn't the only one fooled, several on this forum were too.
:clown:

I will tell you the positive one when It happens. :cheeky:

I let two domains expire earlier this year:

Britain2012.com
England2012.net

And I held on to:

NewYork2012.org
Moscow2012.net

I guess I picked the wrong two to keep, as
London England ended up getting the 2012 Olympic Games.

But in the time leading up to the decision in
July, NewYork2012.org was getting more and more hits.

Would have been great for NY to get those Olympics!

nice names hugegrowth...sorry for your mishap sealover, I would be QUITE suspicious of a domain with a FOUR FIGURE ovt with extension ranking (they make those? lmao) that was just $100, (should be more like $xx,xxx+) sometimes you have to follow that old saying "if it's toooooo good to be true" you know the rest! better luck next time! :eek:k:

Also, on the POSITIVE SIDE (which is where we want this thread to stay)
the domain I just got that has a nice ovt w/e rating got 57 uniques yesterday on it's first day of parking and got a smashing 20 CLICKS! Now I just need to find where I can make more than .10/click with it! The keyword it is using on sedo pays $1.00+ per click thru based on overtures bid tool so I am clueless as to why the RPC is so low on sedo, those greedy bass turds! Gonna try out ParkingSite.com I think since they CLAIM to have a 95% revenue share..if this is true I will be making ALOT of cash with them! Anyone else have some killer PPC earners?

10k on sedo if you wanna make a bid on it LOL ! gets 13 hits a month,it was a great sale at 1500 !

It's parked at Fab and gets a lot more than 13 hits/month (ovt w/e 174), here's the old sale thread with $150k BIN http://www.dnforum.com/f116/pokerplayer-net-97491.html

Hello,
I don't have a real huge success story but I hope that happens soon as i bought 26 Playstation 3 domains for reg fee including PS3New.co.uk, PS3Magazines.com
, PS3Magazine.net, BuyPS3.net, PS3Console.net and all of them have quality. I hope that these domains will get me good amount of money when PS3 is released.
Another story is that I baught MacintoshSoftware.com for $60 and sold it 2 months ago
Regards

Bought a domain with developed site in the low $xx,xxx and 4 months later I was making low $xx,xxx monthly. That is likely a once in a lifetime deal...:)

One of my successes are - Hand regged WeaponsDetector.com and NarcoticsDetector.com late in 2004 and sold them about 3 weeks later for $20,000 to a company that sells Bomb detection equipment, security and such.

I'm betting at least 1/4 of the posts in this thread are much more fiction than fact...
