Why is There Such an
Interest in Domain Names?
Understanding the domain name
marketplace
Whether you agree or disagree with the rights and wrongs of domain
speculation it has become a multi billion dollar marketplace.
A
website is an online shop and when you consider that over 2 billion pounds a
month is spent online in the UK alone you can start to understand why everyone
wants their shop to be in the best location for passing traffic, and have the
most suitable, marketable, memorable and brandable address in the network of
high streets.
Considering no one can have the same domain (internet address) value is
quickly added to non trademarked
domains that anyone is entitled to. No
different to property investors buying prime location property in busy high
streets, even if they don't have a retail business they will profit from
those that do.
Many
people from all walks of life have now started to invest in the domain
property business, whether it is a full time business, part time cash booster
or a retired fund.
The
most popular areas of domains that people invest in are popular, generic, sort
after domains: and domains with traffic, (see
domain traffic)
Around 20,000 domain names expire every single day, this becomes a
harvesting field for domain speculators. Most of these domains are
reregistered within less than 1 second of expiring, this is either because of
the generic value of the domain the personal value or the traffic
value.
Sadly many of these names expire without the owner realising (see Why
do people loose their domains) You may be one of these people and you
would like to get your .com back, or you may be the owner of a surrounding
extension and you would like to use the opportunity to own the .com for
yourself. In either case you should use our expert services to acquire the
domain name for you.
