Auctions that sell unique domains have entered the life of Internet entrepreneurs not so long ago, but have already made a lot of noise. Despite the abundance of rave reviews, most Web users call making money on antique domains a "scam", and virtual auctions are another invention of scammers.
But just read the reviews of advanced users and it becomes clear that such auctions really exist and are in demand.
The same can be said for unique domain names. According to reviews found on the Internet, making money on antique domains is not an easy task. Yes, and such domains are not cheap, and only specialists who have passed special accreditation have the right to provide access to them.
How and how much you can earn
To make money on a domain auction, you must first purchase one of them, and then sell it to the owners of some virtual companies that dream of buying a unique address. The existence of this rather serious and profitable business did not fail to take advantage of lovers to earn extra moneydoing.
Among the notorious sites is the DoxodWork project. So, its creators assure representatives of the Internet community that working at an auction of antique domains can bring income up to 25 thousand rubles.
Domains under the hammer?
The author of one of the training videos reports that not only antiques go under the hammer at virtual auctions. There are online auctions on the Web, where it becomes possible to make money on antique domains. The reviews of the majority of users who are not participating in the affiliate program are full of doubts. These people believe that you can't earn much by selling discarded property, and even virtual property.
I must say that the promotional pages of the owners of virtual auctions, which list domain names as lots, have an excellent reputation and are full of rave reviews from "grateful customers".
Reviews about making money on antique domains found on the Internet
Independent experts with the aim of exposing the owners of the DoxodWork auction, selling "unique" domains, have registered on this project. During the experiment, it turned out that the owners of a suspicious site offer newcomers to take their first entrepreneurial steps at their expense.
Volunteers pursued the goal of revealing the whole truth about making money on antique domains, so their report, submitted to the online public, is replete with facts that only users registered on the project can know about. This site is called fraudulent for a number of reasons:
- If the first purchase is made with the money of the site owners (as promised in the advertisement), then all subsequent purchases, new entrepreneurs complain, they have to pay out of their own pocket.
- As soon as a predetermined amount is collected on the personal account of an entrepreneur who has agreed to work at a domain auction, it turns out that it is impossible to withdraw money. The amount to be withdrawn is much higher than what is mentioned in the promotional videos and texts.
- When a user, disappointed by failure, returns to his personal account, he sees only a blank page.
How to trade on the Internet
Perhaps the most sought after personnel at the auction are users working as overclockers. Their task is to provide the "visibility" of the unpurchased and re-listed lot.
Among the professional skills of these overclockers is the creation of several accounts, like two drops of water similar to each other. In this profession, advanced users say, you can meet real virtuosos. Their twin accounts are created on different computers and filled with unique information (data about the place of residence, last name, and so on). Officially, overclockers cannot be blamed for anything - they do not break any rules.
Their goal is to sell the same non-existent lot over and over again.
How to recognize overclockers
The prices they quotedridiculously small, and the overclockers themselves are unnaturally active. The lot sold by them appears at the auction again after a while. The same object can "float" three, five, ten times.
For several years since the appearance of virtual auctions, millions of users have already used their services. Some of them put their lots up for sale, someone wanted to make a purchase, and, I must say, many were satisfied with the result.
The army of users who have ever entered a virtual auction is quite numerous. According to their feedback, making money on antique domains or other auction lots is quite possible here, since a virtual auction is perhaps the best opportunity to sell and buy.
If we consider trading under the hammer as a business, experts say, then this type of activity has an impressive future. The number of auction sites is growing from year to year, and now many reputable experts rank virtual auctions as one of the branches of e-commerce.
According to advanced users, the virtual auction is the marketplace of the future
The birth of a new industry led to the emergence of a new profession. It's about mediation.
When choosing an intermediary, first of all, you should pay attention to his reputation. Fraudsters, who, according to experts, always "nest" near virtual auctions, inhas become more lately. Their methods of work are simple: to mislead inexperienced beginners with tempting promises (for example, by offering earnings on antique domains without investments) and exclusive conditions.
There is always a large selection of goods, and even a buyer who does not have online shopping experience can purchase them. In addition, there are many more consumers in auctions, and therefore more opportunities for e-commerce merchants.
Finally, at auctions (including domain auctions) it is easier to organize an advertising campaign, which means it is easier to sell. And the last thing: the seller does not have to pay anything for his lot to appear at the auction, and the simplicity and variety of the choice of conducting preliminary negotiations between merchants and consumers brings the probability of a successful transaction closer.
