Retire Young and Wealthy

I don’t know why but I looked up a one word .jp domain on a subject I thought could be useful. I couldn’t believe my luck to find that it wasn’t taken.

.jp domains can be registered at godaddy. A .jp domain costs a whopping $99.

I wouldn’t usually bother, registering a .jp domain, but I remember seeing a similar and related domain sell for a four figure sum on sedo.com’s recent sales section. (If you can believe those figures).

I know not everyone sees domains an investment, but I am sure I can’t go wrong with this. A domain that I registered last year and decided not to renew is now listed on sedo for $850! Who knows if it will sell, but I could have easily re-registered for $10.

I have been disappointed before, so I know if you come up with something good it is better to register it straight away. I thought it was only me, but I have read on forums how registers record every search look up and people have conspiracy theories that domain registers then sell these lists.

I have never seen such a list but I wouldn’t be surprised if this happens.
