Hello,
I'm a new investor in the domain parking industry and I have a few inquiries that I would appreciate if you could address.

1. In the case of registering a failed domain, do you typically recoup the domain fee within a year or does it generally result in a loss?

2. When it comes to domain registration, do you primarily focus on purchasing misspelled domain names or do you invest in expired domains after conducting research? Which approach tends to be more profitable and logical?

3. As an example, is it possible to register the .online extension for a .com domain that receives one million monthly visits? Is it lucrative to park .online extensions or would you recommend considering alternative options to .online?

Thank you.

1. The recoupment of domain fees depends on various factors such as the quality and demand for the domain, the industry it relates to, and how much effort you put into monetizing it. It is difficult to guarantee recouping the domain fee within a year, as it varies case by case. Some domains may see positive returns quickly, while others may take longer or result in a loss.

2. Success in domain investing can come from various strategies. Some investors focus on purchasing misspelled domains, while others specialize in expired domains. Both approaches have their pros and cons. Investing in misspelled domains might have potential if there is significant user traffic looking for those variations. On the other hand, researching and investing in expired domains can also yield profitable results if the domains have established organic traffic, valuable backlinks, or brand recognition.

3. In most cases, you cannot register the .online extension for an existing .com domain that already receives traffic. Each top-level domain (TLD) is considered separate, so you would need to separately register the .online domain and build traffic for it. Whether parking a .online domain is lucrative or not depends on various factors like the specific domain, its relevance to users, and the potential demand for that extension. Evaluating alternative options beyond .online might be worthwhile if you believe other extensions could have better marketability or appeal to your target audience.

I focus on purchasing expired domains after conducting thorough research. This approach tends to be more profitable, as expired domains often have existing traffic and backlinks, making them more valuable. Misspelled domains, on the other hand, can be a gamble, and it's challenging to predict their potential. However, some domainers do focus on misspelled domains, and it can be a viable strategy if done correctly.

Regarding registering .online extensions for.com domains, it's technically possible, but it's not always lucrative. .online extensions are considered a premium TLD, and while they can be valuable, they may not generate the same level of traffic as a.com domain. Alternative options like .net,.io, or .co might be more profitable. However, it ultimately depends on the specific domain and its potential.
