Yes! There is money to make from the business but there is need to have some fund to host it or them. Though hosting is not costly as before. You can get hosting services at cheap rate of $2 yearly. In fact, it is the hosting that makes the domain your own truly.

Theoretically speaking, you can sell domains and make money. However, from a practical point of view, you will not be able to sell domains. There are a lot of domain extensions available so, people are no longer paying a high amount for a domain.

There is something called domain flipping which is where you buy a domain name as cheaply as you can and then keep it until someone is interested in the domain you will usually sell it for more than you paid for it in the first place meaning you will make a profit.

It is a business that you could get into but you would need experience in choosing the right domain names that would more than likely people would be interested in and would want to buy from you for more than you paid for it.

You must rank domain on search engine if you want sell it and that is not easy job. Make backlinks, advertise it, bring traffic (best would be organic), ranked it for specific keyword. All this stuff must be done if you want sell domain for higher price.

You can make a lot of money from selling domain names. This is a very profitable job and you can easily earn more than $100 per month, but it is a job that you need to have experience.

Yes, you should also know that domain names may be in demand to be able to sell them easily, it is a business that not everyone can do, as you say it takes experience.

Could you provide an example because 2 $ monthly and not yearly for hosting is something logical but 2 $ yearly exceeds the rental cost this is what I am thinking about hosting as seeing prices.

Domain reselling business used to be popular some years back. People scrambled to buy keyword domains and short word domains. However things are changing with newly introduced extensions. People prefer to make a slight change if the main word is not available.

You can make money by selling domain names but i really do not know how one can go about it. I believe it's best to ask people who make money from this means.

Yes, you can make money selling domain names. Good domain names that are short, memorable, and relevant to popular searches or industries can sell for thousands or even millions of dollars. You can buy domain names speculatively and sell them for a profit, or purchase existing domains through auction marketplaces. Choosing domains wisely and marketing them effectively is key to successful domain name selling.

For me personally, l have never done this kind of business because l don't even own a single website. However l have read it from different forums and sites that many people are making killing on the same business.

Some people buy a website and hosting and grow it and sell it with a margin will be more profitable than the trade of the domain name this is another perspective but needs a lot of work as many needs ready website monetized and not from scratch.

If you have a good domain or website, the domain brokers will directly contact you and you can sell the domain at good price. Since top companies, officials have ruthlessly cheated me, I could sell one domain at a better price.

Some people sell website with domain name it is more profitable than selling domain name only.

If the website is making plenty of money from advertising or other sources, the seller will definitely get a better price. However, the actual price depends on the quality of the domain, with short domains being sold for a higher price.

This is what I mean exactly you could see a big difference in term of price properly or the revenue but it needs a little bit more work like administration work rather than only sell of domain name only for example.
