how much of your portfolio are domain names?

I'm just curious what percentage of your incomes are coming from domain activity?

Well all of my revenue has something to do with domains, but if you mean like sales, and parking and such probably about 10% right now. I would like to get it up to about 25% by the end of next year.

I've always been very difficult to convince in entering that market...I simply fear that I'll have too many domains that will end up being useless :\

I have only sold on website and that was with a sub-domain so I wouldn't know. My website now has some okay stats and the domain is very popular and well known because I have advertised it everywhere.

The way it works for me is that domain sales are sporadic. I easily make 1k every 3 months or so, but when, and how much more, really depends.

I used to make about $600 monthly from parking. This was certain revenue and hardly fluctated. Having sold most of these domains, my parking revenue has diminished some what in the last month.

I have a few sites that bring in some adsense revenue; nothing substantial, but at least its something. I use most of this money to try to cover the hosting for domain social (which costs a lot).


Otherwise you can do pretty well, just need to right domains.

I'm finding that a lot of my time is spent on recordkeeping/filing sorts of stuff. I/m bummed that it is taking so many different pieces for me to put together any kind of income at all, and I'm not good at keeping up with the large number of spread out details this is involving.

That is quite good, and quite rewarding for its purpose. How much did those sites ended costing you per month?

I made $600 consistantly for about 5 months. I had about 8 sites making me that, so its $72 a year, which (to answer your question), is about $6 a month.

Hmm, well that's pretty good, these must be quite efficient websites, and with the costs, is definitely worth it
