A Few of the Names I’ve Purchased Lately

By ShaneCultra - January 31, 2011 - 6 Comments

I didn't make any real big purchases the past two months but I did buy a few domains. I spent approximately $6K on the names below and sold $4500 which is more "government like" that I want. I usually try and only spend what I take in but almost all of that was for the numerics which I had already set aside $10K to build a portfolio of NNNN.coms The rest were great values to me. 2010 was a banner year for me as I purchased less than 10 names that in hindsight made me say, "Why in the hell did I buy that?" Previous years? I had WAY too many. All the names below are dot coms. 7881 Ov... Read More »

Monday’s Daily Auction Finds and Profitable Drops

When you're reading this I'll most likely be on may way to California for some show they're having about domains. I almost don't want to go because the Midwest could get slammed on Tuesday with one of the largest snowstorms in the last 30 years. They have a word days like this in Buffalo, it's called Tuesday. My poor snow crew is going to probably be working day and night for several days straight. You may see me on the phone quite a bit tomorrow during the show. Now onto the names CurrentTopics.com 1997 registration. Certainly not going to make you a million dollars but at no bids this one... Read More »

When It Comes To Developing, Are You A Sniper or Do Use a Buckshot?

By ShaneCultra - January 29, 2011 - 17 Comments

I'm about 8 weeks from entering the busiest part of my year. My time has to be planned to the 15 minute interval. I recently had a project fall through and it got me to thinking. How am I going to approach this year as opposed to past years? Would I concentrate on one larger project (the sniper) or would I have a bunch of smaller projects (the buckshot). I am a little different than most domainers. I have a large business with 40 employees and several locations that is bigger and more important than what I do in domaining. I will never be able to put forth the time necessary by myself to pul... Read More »

The Weekly Excavation of Some Treasures in the Cax.com Portfolio

By ShaneCultra - January 28, 2011 - 4 Comments

It's that time again. I've found a few names that are great value over at Cax.com. Of course there are some people living in a fantasy land when it comes to pricing but I like naive. But I prefer the naive to be when they priced it too low. Here's are the deals I found this week. ZipHoodies.com Eminem set a style that led to every person under 18 owning 3 of these. $500 is a steal Surrounded.com The reserve on this is $1500 and although it may not be a bargain it's still a good price on this one. I think it would make a good social name. 3dVideos.us 15K searches. If I am going to i... Read More »

Friday’s Daily Domain Name Auction and Drops

By ShaneCultra - January 28, 2011 - 1 Comment

I have to admit, I'm getting a little excited about DomainFest. Kudos to Southwest for their ability to change flights at no extra cost. They really are the best airline out there when it comes to not nickel and diming you. I wanted to get in early for the So Cal Domain Meetup and realized my flight was getting in much later than I remember so I moved it up 6 hours. Now I'll have plenty of time. Speaking of time, here are some names you'll want to get a bid on today before they close or drop. AllIndiaRadio.com A PR6 with 21,000 links and as a Westerner we imagine the station plays lots of son... Read More »
