01 — "Overview"
Short, brandable .com names are finite. Buying expired or undervalued names and listing them on marketplaces can yield occasional big sales.
02 — "The Crash Course"
- Step 01
Study what sells
Browse NameBio for recent sales. Short .coms, one-word names, and clear two-word brandables sell best.
- Step 02
Set strict buy rules
Pronounceable, spellable, no hyphens or numbers, .com only at first. Budget $10–$100 per name.
- Step 03
Source expired names
DropCatch, ExpiredDomains.net, GoDaddy Auctions. Filter by age and backlinks.
- Step 04
List everywhere
Afternic (reaches GoDaddy registrars), Dan.com and Sedo. Use 'Buy it now' prices plus make-offer.
- Step 05
Price for real buyers
Most sales are $500–$5,000 to small businesses. Don't list everything at $50k.
- Step 06
Outbound some names
Find businesses using a similar name (e.g. 'getbrand.com' users) and email a short offer.
- Step 07
Prune yearly
Drop names with no inquiries after 2 renewals. Renewal costs are the business's hidden expense.
"The math"
Portfolio of 100 names at ~$12/year renewals = $1,200/year. 2–3 sales at $1,500–$3,000 = $3k–$9k/year.

03 — "How people lose"
Buying hundreds of mediocre names and bleeding on renewals. A 1% annual sell-through is normal — keep portfolio quality high.
