Hello and Assalamo Alaikum,
It’s been over 6 months since I last shared my latest acquisitions. Time passed so quickly and I just didn’t knew the gap in between got too long. Because I think sharing every quarter is good idea. Okay, so let’s come to the point and below you will find some of my 2017 domain acquisitions:
PrintFactory.com – Made it look colorful to match with the print word ;). Recently ThePrintful.com acquired Printful.com for $100,000 and PrintScape.com sold for $10,000. It’s a great name to be added in our portfolio.
AdvancedLaser.com – Vast field and huge potential in this domain.
AhiGroup.com – My highest sale to date for LLLgroup.com was DcsGroup.com which sold for mid 4 figures in 2014. Since that time, I have been buying several LLLgroup.com domains and this has great potential as well. Although age doesn’t matter to me but just thought to share it’s creation date is way back in 1996.
C9Group.com – My first letter+numeric combination domain ending with group. Yet to get into my GoDaddy account. Anyone having success story with similar domains?
AABI.com, MWSA.com, PACW.com, AJBY.com – Some 4L .com added. I think having 7-10% 4L .com in your portfolio is good to keep balance but I acquired plenty last year which makes it 12% of 4L .com in my portfolio.
Vivaria.com – I see plenty of upgrades.
LifeAsItHappens.com – I like phrase domains as does Mike Mann and Mike Berkens.
Shonky.com – Brandable. Tons of upgrades.
iWannaPlay.com – Fun/Gaming/Entertainment website.
GwadarHotels.com, TravelGwadar.com, GwadarTravel.com – Not sure how many of you’re aware of Gwadar but it’s a world’s largest deep sea-port and is in Pakistan.
Feel free to comment and share your recent acquisitions as well
Good domain Abdul… How about GroupLLL.com domain?
Never had any experience with GroupLLL.com but doesn’t make sense to me.
OK Abdul, How about this domain ZusGroup.com
Hi,
Great buys! Looking forward to your recent sales.
Thanks!
Yeah, that would be good too.
Nice acquisitions my friend. Also great way to diversify your portfolio.
Thanks for your feedback Dashawn 🙂
Always good to invest in many type of domains which keeps the flow going smoothly.
You know how to diversify that portfolio bhai. Way to go!
Glad you like it Manmeet bhai and thanks for commenting 🙂
Hi Abdul,
Nice acquisitions. Interesting comment about LifeAsItHappens. I like the name. I recently acquired a similar name LifeInStages. It seems to get quite a bit of looks.
Thanks for sharing and best of luck!
Glad you like it Prycr.
Although it’s nice (LifeInStages) but LifeStages would be great!
Wish you all the best dear.
Wa alaikum salam Abdul,
Nice acquisition you got there.
Did you bought PrintFactory.com from an auction or direct contact the owner?
Thanks Fuadiansyah 🙂
Private acquisition.
Look like from Simon Holdings. Great acquisition!
Thanks HJ!
Assalamo Alaikum,
Very good names. You have purchased names relating to different categories. Nice strategy. Good Luck.
WaAlaikum Salaam,
Yeah, that works very well.
Thanks and wish you all the best bro 🙂
Pretty good acquisitions Basit. I really do like PrintFactory and lifeasithappens, sounds like some kind of documentary about relationships and simarities amongst humans, plants and animals. Congratulations
Thanks Lifa for your feedback which is appreciated 🙂
In short, the more usage of any domain, the more valuable it is.
Best wishes!
Interesting acquisitions especially PrintFactory.com & AdvancedLaser.com as I have PrintElectronic.com, PrintSensor & FindLaser.com (registered in 1999!) – all of them are still available for purchase if interested. Cheers!
Glad you like it Bob and thanks for sharing your domains. Nice one’s 🙂
Best of luck!
As salam Abdul Basit,
I’ve been your silent reader for years now! hehe 🙂
Great blog post and it gave me some ideas to work with.
I’ve question for you. Do you care about the domain name dropped status before buying it? I like to check my domain stats using domaintools.
Thank You,
Regards.
WaAlaikum Salaam Safa aka Silent Reader 😉
Thanks!
Can you clarify what dropped status you mean? If I understood correctly, whatever status a domain is in like Pending Renewal which goes for auction as expiring domains and Pending Delete domains which are eventually dropped and grabbed by companies like DropCatch, SnapNames, NameJet, Pheenix. I buy both type of domains as it doesn’t matter what status it had in past.
You’re most welcome! 🙂
Thanks for the quick reply. Really happy to finally comments on your lovely blog. lol
Yes, i believe you did understand it correctly. Example like this (http://whois.domaintools.com/hofeed.com), you can clearly see the registrar history of this domain has 2 drops. Actually what does this drops really mean?
Another question is, what is the value of LLnews.com nowadays? 😉
Regards.
It doesn’t matter if a domain is dropped any number of times. Genuine enduser doesn’t care about that. Recalling now, I have sold a domain for mid 4 figures which was dropped 8 times (according to DomainTools.com) before I acquired it.
I have never been into LLnews.com so couldn’t comment on it.
Best wishes 🙂
What’s up Abdul!
Just have this a read. I like PrintFactory as well.
Thanks for sharing!

Nice domains out there, personally I like LLLgroup .com, so one of my last acquisition is VRYgroup .com, I also bought Solar Technology .biz
Thanks!
Yes, I always like LLLgroup.com and your’s is good one too.
I think you will find it difficulty in selling that 2 word .biz domain but good luck in selling 🙂
