How to Invest in Internet Domain Names

1. Think of a unique domain name that contains high-paying keywords. Valuable domain names are straight to the point and refer to a popular subject such as personal finance and health. Go to the High Paying Google Keywords website in Resources for a list of possible domain name ideas.
2. Register your domain name. Go to the Nameboy website (see Resources) and enter a domain that you would like to buy. Nameboy will then generate variations of the name if your specific name is already taken. Choose a domain name with a .com extension because these are the most valuable.

3. Monetize your domain name. Sign up with a Web hosting provider such as Blue Host or Go Daddy and create a webpage. Post content and information regarding your domain name's theme and integrate it with Google AdSense. If the domain name is buzzworthy, it will attract lots of visitors. Visitors who click on your page's ads will generate revenue for every click.
4. Park your domain name. A parked domain name is nothing more than a page with ads. This is used to hold onto a popular domain name and wait for an offer from a prospective buyer. Sign up with Sedo and park your name on their site. Simply create a free account and transfer your DNS servers to Sedo.
5. Auction your domain name. Sign up with Go Daddy and click 'Auctions' on the top toolbar. Select 'List a Domain' on the left-hand menu. Become a member of Go Daddy Auctions so you can buy and sell domain names.
