Some top acquisitions of 2020

Hi everyone,

I’m very excited to share some of my top domain acquisitions of recent time. My last post on acquisition was in March 2020.

Today I’ll start once again by sharing another 3L domain FLM.com which I recently acquired. This is my 3rd 3L .com domain purchase after GRO.com and EJH.com and I’m very happy with this domain to be added in the portfolio.

QMBS.com, MMDW.com and FOIK.com – As always I’m slowly acquiring 4L .com domains and I like the formula of Shane Cultra of having 7%-10% of 4Ls in a portfolio and I’m having somewhat around 7% of 4Ls in my portfolio as well.

TAQ.org and TAS.org – I’ve purchased a few 3L .orgs to date but so far no success. Though I’m very confident in selling 3L .org in the future.

LEN.CO, HIH.CO, HJS.CO, LiveStreaming.CO, Parkinson.CO, Comms.CO and Agro.CO – I’ve had good success with .CO domains by selling several domains in 4-5 figures. 3L and 1 word domains are good to invest in my opinion. Rarely I’ve invested in 2 word .CO domains like LiveStreaming and maybe I’ve two more domains of 2 word at max.

OnlineCharity.com – For many years, I’ve witnessed that “online” keyword is in constant demand and both these terms together makes it a good domain.

RehabMed.com – Short version of Rehab Medical, Rehab Medicine and even Rehab Media. I like this short one better than all variants. That’s just my opinion. What’s your take?

TheRay.com and TheToken.com – Domains with “the” keyword works very well and lately the prices are skyrocketing unlike in the past where we could buy such domains for a reasonable amount.

EmilyJane.com – This domain has a very interesting story. I sold this domain previously in 2013 for $5,165. Recently I checked this domain was not resolving to the page which it used to be in the past. I contacted the previous owner but they didn’t own it anymore. I found this domain was under brokerage of GritBrokerage so I had to get in touch with them to buy it. Thanks to Brian Harbin of GB for making the deal smooth and all ended well.

Vivante.com, WildThyme.com, EcoSun.com, FirstServe.com, RainbowCrystal.com, WireFree.com, EliteAgency.com and ArtWood.com – These are the types of domains I really like to invest in. With current hot auction prices, I’m now focusing more on private acquisitions and these are not easy to acquire both in terms of negotiation as well as prices.

Architeck.com – Another example of one word brandable domain.

PowerOfYes.com – Although it’s a 3 word domain but I believe it’s a good domain with positive meaning attached to it.

LeveragedFinance.com – Already have a very few finance related domains so this one was a nice little addition to the portfolio.

Torben.com – Quite a popular name as per LinkedIn which shows 19,000 people.

Labio.com – It means “lip” in Spanish language. Also it’s a 5L, pronounceable and highly brandable domain. Not only this domain can be used for lip surgeries, cosmetics, etc. But it can be used for other different purposes due to it’s catchy brand.

GlobalCrypto.com – A domain selling in 6 figures in the future 😉

Many of those domain acquisitions were private and I regularly use DotDB service for buying domains as it helps in understanding how many potential endusers already exist. So make sure you’re using DotDB and their PRO plan is recommended for which you can get a 7 days trial in case you’re not sure if it’s worth it or not.

Do you believe 0% chance that new domains being popularized can freeze or lower value of some .coms?

It it 100% impossible that domain names like leveraged.finance can hinder your prospects for leveragedfinance.com?

I like to know where blogger domainers stand. It seems to becoming a contentious issue.

Also, if you would rather suggest new domains won’t HINDER, but actually create a BOOM for .com domains (a widely held view), you’re welcome to let us know that too!

Honestly I like to know: if in your mind, are such domain alternatives ever considered in your processes?

Ok. I don’t want to dig into too many facts/trends of today, because that would be a whole blog post. I do say, ‘looking at today’ is dangerous thinking. And almost traditional investor focuses on that. Most people in a macro sense, make money by looking into the future, and even embracing and understand that change happens. Maybe too much philosophy though. But also domains aren’t like most investments. As much as we like to think they have intrinsic value, the value is mostly derived from perception. That is because everyone can use the same ones with different efficacy. I… Read more »

Good value acquisitions.I see lots of good value sales and high returns.I see CSC coming for leveragedfinance .com(don’t sell cheap).Rehabmed. com ,I see a 5 figure sale 🙂.
The others definitely worth same sale range .The 3Ls are top of the line so I know you always aim for the best 6 figures.

Please provide the details of how much you paid for the domains and please provide how much $$$$ you are keeping for maintenances.
I guess you have to sell to get cash and then buy again….it is like chasing the tail.
Do you think this is sustainable?

Hey Abdul, how are you doing? how has your week been? I hope you are well. You have acquired a great selection of domains, and sharing them with us in your blog post is great. Did you buy EmilyJane.com for the second time, to repeat the same process? as you did first time around in 2013, (which is sell it at a higher rate than you purchased it?) or you bought it again for a different plan/ purpose in mind? Otherwise Abdul you make profits on your domain sales and then you reinvest these profits to buy more domains. You… Read more »

Hi AbdulBasit,

Still going through your older posts. Thank God for the internet and for your willingness to share your knowledge.

What is your opinion about misspelled single-word domain names, or less popular alternative forms of common words?

For example: collesion (dot) org (instead of collision), restrection (dot) org (instead of restriction), socialyze, mechanical (technical) etc. Also considering the TLDs.

Thank you so much!
