Domain names as online business investments

While some may consider blogging as a venue for online opportunities, there are those who invest on domain names as their way of having an income from the internet. It pays to be the first to claim a catchy or important phrase or keyword and register it as a domain name, then later selling it at a higher rate especially when others already have the need for it. Some unscrupulous individuals even register the names of famous politicians and personalities without their knowledge and later sell the domain to them at such expensive cost.

If the domain name you need to have is already taken, and you need it badly, you might as well make a deal with the domain owner so he can transfer to you the ownership. If you own a domain with good potential for an online business investment, selling can be facilitated via eBay auctions. For instance, there’s an ongoing auction for the domain names AidGrant.com and AuctionClose.com. These domain names are made up of common easy-to-remember keywords having fewer characters.

The AidGrant.com eBay auction as well as AuctionClose.com run for 7 days from January 13 to 20 only and accepts international bidding. Both domains have starting bids at $199.95. Those who are into online ventures can purchase these domains as an investment or use them for future websites with related content.
