In my quest to be a knowledgeable domainer, I rummaged through a gamut of references, blogs and search engines to find the very best in domaining blogs, websites and tools… Not really…
I used the good old Google blog search to find my next read on my latest internet obsession of domaining. And today I find the Avivadirectory.com’s article about “How to Get Started as a Domainer: 28 Tips, Techniques and Resources“. A very long (almost boring) but informative article about the realities of domaining for beginners in these times of late. The article starts out as interesting with bits and pieces of information about people who’ve already made it big in this domaining industry. The first couple of paragraphs about earning potentials will definitely make a domaining newbie carry on and read. With me being cynical, I thought I’d move along and read the piece for what its worth. My mantra in this domaining venture is “to keep learning and learn a thing or two a day.”
It turns out that this piece is worth my time after all. I learned what domain tasting was ( which was something I’ve been reading about a lot since I started blogging ). Domain tasting was also something I’ve been a victim of for one of the domains I initially wanted to get. There’s a few points in here that would be interesting to note especially for somebody like me who is just starting out in the business.
There’s also a whole list of domaining tools to visit and test. I made a few visits to those online domaining tools but I only found a handful of useful ones. But then again I might just be a newbie too naive to realize their worth.
Overall, it’s quite a good read. I picked up a few things and I’d recommend newbies like me to give it a go as well. But its just something worth one read and I wouldn’t say there’s a point in visiting it again.
