How to start a domain flipping business
Tommy Bryson created his Youtube channel to share what he learned to achieve financial success. His strategy is to buy a domain with a small investment. He then holds the domain until he can sell to the right buyer. This is a very solid strategy. This is a classic money-making tactic: buy low and sell high. He invested around $1,000 in five domains. His domains are worth $5,000 when he made the video.
What is Domain Catching?
Domain catching is buying a domain right after it expires. Domains are registered all time of the day and expire a year after they are registered. So that means you can catch domains all day. This also means you can spend a lot of time waiting for domains to expire. When I think of domain catching, I think of being at the right time and place. It happens but you will have to be lucky often for this to be vaible.

Is domain flipping still profitable in 2022?
Yes, domain flipping is still profitable. This is true for a few reasons but I will focus on one scenario. Many people start companies and buy domains for these companies. Many companies fail and purchased domains are released back to the domain registry. There are many reasons why companies fail. In failure, there can be an opportunity. Domains that companies purchased, built a business around, and retired are profitable assets.
How so? People tend to think of similar things and arrive at similar conclusions. If you find a great name for a company, regardless of how that company does, it’s still a great name. When the great name is in a domain, that’s very powerful. That name can be a juggernaut brand in the right hands. You’re adding value and making money at the same time.
Should I buy deleted domains?
Deleted domains can be profitable. However, you have to do your homework. Finding a domain with backlinks is great. You need the right type of backlinks. If a deleted domain contains backlinks from reputable sites, that domain has value. Dofollow links add to domain authority. Anyone purchasing that domain can use those linked pages to produce content.
Some deleted domains have traffic. Yes, even though the domain doesn’t exist. The domain solved a problem for people in the past. Unfortunately, the domain is not solving the problem today. A buyer of your domain can help fill that gap. Again, this is very valuable.
How do I find deleted domains?
I use the site ExpiredDomains.net to find deleted domains. You can also find expired domains on that site. I mainly focus on deleted domains. Delete domains are simple to find. There’s also cheap. The cost is normally the same as creating a new domain.
Once you’re at the home page, just click on deleted domains. There’s no secret or crazy method. You just pull up the list and search. I started by finding deleted domains I clicked with. When I say clicked, I read the domain and thought, hmm, that’s cool. I like that one. Those were the first domains I picked. I’m still happy with my picks months after making them. This site happens to be one of my picks. Surprise!
