Vida.com and investment domains

More or less since December, and much to my regret, because we have a very broad portfolio I see that the market for domain names is clean, relaxing and self-regulating as the overall economic situation cools.

Does that mean that the domains will no longer be a good investment? I think not, if I understand what he means is that an investment will be much more selective.

We have approximately 1300 domains, many of them highly selected. Com,. Net,. Info or. Is 1 in the only word that "we have to do something." But also, over the years have been buying domains of 2 without being generic words. Com, or 1 single word but without much real meaning or not Premium domains in other TLDs such as. Tv. Mobi or. Pros and growing I think that some of them have not won the renovation.

Generally do not sell domains, they are like a collection of stickers on it from time to time sell some to invest in others. This month we offer auctioned after 2 domains, "dominio.tv" and "anuncios.pro", the latter currently on auction at Sedo here following a bid of $ 1500US.

Why do we have sold these domains, if the bids have not been so good from our point of view?. The explanation is varied, "dominio.tv" has a renovation cost of $ 500 and had no plans to do anything with, ie has cost us in the last 2 years $ 1000, there was no point in keeping it stopped. "Anuncios.pro" Nor had nothing planned, especially because even if I throw something sorted soon (I love the industry) for that, I prefer another domain that we have reserved "anuncio.net"

Investment in domains has changed a lot in this 2008, the routine of backorders in Spain in recent years, rarely appear. I do not remember when was the last time I sounded the alarm because there was a lack of motive for the closing minutes of an auction that interested me, I think that really we have been in the sector in recent years, we already have too many and just looking opportunities to improve the quality of our portfolio, and those opportunities have migrated to treatment through private or platforms for sale as Afternic or Sedo, but rarely at auction.

One of those rare cases auction is taking place right now. NameJet auction at the moment the domain "vida.com" in an auction Private? in which there are 209 bidders. 2 days left for the sale of the domain, which certainly has the look of it away in an American investor, and bids are already at $ 8100. The domain magnificent and I think there are things that could be done with ... but unfortunately not in our plans to make an immediate, so I do not think it makes sense to buy it eventually. Even so, we are discussing internally so intense.

To recognize the errors: goodbye to. Mobi

I remember that during the last Forum Domains my perception of the domains. Mobi was not bad, it's more they saw the future.

Following this congress began to look more carefully at my position as an investor to open. Mobi. I remember I started to do the next day, seeing that some users demene.com that I still streaming questioned by those who valued. Mobi

Since that time, validating some domainers and investors have come to the conclusion (if it is true, months has cost me) that mobi is a real snake a bluff summer that I have swallowed me and that has cost more than the account.

To. Mobi have no typein, there are very few developed ones, do not have much sense as employing a mobile.dominio.com and its entire card is the presentation of large corporations that supported. That support was enough to convince technological ago 2 years. To this day, especially watching the circus of the auction. Mobi in the morning and Sedo image that has made it all this DotMobi frankly I do not want to continue buying and investing in this TLD

We have bought some good domains in the release, and auctions and private transactions, from now on, if they sell the bids without much problem with exceptions and not buy more domains. Mobi

I think it is important when one holds something in public, listening to other people who think of the topic, again valuing the opinions and if you believe that the time was wrong and it was the wrong approach, the public recognition and explain his change of stance.
