Started writing on new blogs.

In my previous post I listed all my domains. I feel that I will have to let few of these domains to expire and other will find their use.

I started writing on websiteown.com and also built diseasesofskin.com. Writing on diseases of skin will need a little study so it can wait until I pour out the things I know well in other blogs. I guess these two domains can turn out to be the biggest earners for me in the coming time. Lets see how it turns out to be.

My first assignment

Lots of time I got opportunity to make a website for my friends and other persons but I always refused and rather I taught them “how to build a website” or blog.

This time it looks like I am going to make one for someone. Just registered a domain bdca.in and installed a script on it. Waiting for name sever propagation to complete and then I will try to finish it as soon as possible. Lets see how it comes out to be.

Yet another domain

I just purchased yet another domain from godaddy (yes its still confusing). websiteown.com is the domain I purchased. I purchased this domain as according to google keyword tool this term get more than 350,000 searches every month.

So how actually I decide whether to buy a domain or not. I brainstorm about the domain name then I think whether I will search for that term on google or not then I think whether my wife (who is not much familiar with web) will perform a search on google if I tell her the subject I want to search then I go to google keyword tool and then look for the amount of searches that term gets. Then I think how much SEO I will have to do to make this domain rank well in search engine. And last and most important how much this domain can earn me or how many email subscriber this domain can attract. That's all.

Why I register so many domains

Why I register so many domains?

This is a question I get asked many time. Everyone says that register 1 domain name then work on it to get it pull large number of audience/ visitors/ reader or whatever you call it. I ask if you don't know what you are going to do if you don't get the kind of success you want then what will you do? My guess is your answer will be  “start again” and what if you wont get such nice domain at that time what you are getting today than? And what about the lost time you have wasted in your “one blog” strategy?

My suggestion is, Start multiple blogs at one time, try to find out with which one you feel comfortable and when you find the success you were looking for in one or two blog than abandon all others keeping 1 or 2 most successful ones.

Godaddy.com most confusing site I ever used

Godaddy.com may be the biggest domain registrar on the planet but their site design is so confusing and they make the process of registering domain or buying anything else from them so complicated that its not easy to do business with them. They need to make it easy but I don't think they are going to do that as their complicated process makes them sell a lot more than what they actually can with a simple design.

The second thing they need to improve is their site downloading speed. I started this post after I have filled the login box and pressed submit button but I am nearing the finish of the post and still the page is not loaded fully (Actually I had to do a refresh to make it load further as it was stuck).

A little bit of research

Most of the time when we have to do something we just do it in hurry without doing any research. We do this specially when we do something online.

In my previous post I wrote about purchasing a domain name www.orkuthome.net . I also tried to do it in hurry by going to name.com or godaddy.com and register the domain. I entered the name.com and searched for domain, clicked .net domain and proceeded to checkout. It was showing 8.99$ for that domain for 1 year. When I was just about to do the checkout I saw the promo code box. I searched on the google for promo code for name.com but didn't found anything meaningful. After trying for some other variation for searching for a promo code I searched for .net domain sale. I found this other site that is selling .net domain for 6.49$ (+18 cent icann fees). I registered the domain for 2 years for only 13.34$ . For only 4.35 $ extra I got the domain for another 1 year.

Now I am doing some research for some good web hosting so I can handle properly my ever increasing list of domain names. Any suggestions?

Orkuthome.net

I just registered a new domain www.orkuthome.net . Now my list of own domains is going up. Lets see if I can make some money with domain or not.

What can I do with domain?
I started my first google adword campaign yesterday and up till now it has paid good. Using the keywords associated with orkut I have been keeping the campaign going. The campaign gave me this idea that if I had a domain specific for orkut than I could have done lot more with the campaign. Waiting had been a habit of mine that has resulted into a lot of wasted time for me. So rather then waiting for an idea to click I registered the domain and within few minutes the site will be live on the domain orkuthome.net.

Update: I don't own this domain now.
Another update: Orkut is dead too.
