Ei, guys, do you have your own domains? How much did you buy them? How long have you been holding those domains? Are you only parking them? Are they profitable? Please give me some info... I am very interested in buying my own domains to park. Thanks a lot

I used to have my own domain but afterwards canceled it. Now I just have a blog that I keep as my own website. Couple of months ago I found a site that sells domain for very very low price (min. of $2.5/month I think). I remember I posted it in my blog. You can visit my profile and my website URL is there.

May i ask you why you cancelled your domain? Did you encounter any problem? It that domain had content of just a parked domain? Thanks for responding here.

$10 per month? Its an expensive domain, I guess. Have you tried to park it? You did not earn by parking the domain? I think we can by domain names at less than $10 per year already.

No, I did not have any problem about it. It's just that I don't really need a website cause I don't have to sell anything online. I just wanted to save so I canceled it. It costs $10/month. But if you really need a website and want to do it for lesser cause, I have it in my blog. I saved it there just in case I might need it in the future.

I don't have my own domain, just couple of blog which I not really updated it. But I found this free domain, not true domain though but just redirect domain, you know what I'm talking about don't you? This domain is co.cc, what I really like is, even this domain just some redirect domain but it could make you change your website unpopular name. This domain could applied to blog or to regular website. For example, I have my blog www.nonsense1234.blogspot.com, that sure unpopular name and nobody will remember it, but with co.cc you could redirect that website by using new domain ended with co.cc, for example www.nonsense.co.cc, which absolutely have nicer ring to the visitor. So, when you enter www.nonsense.co.cc to your browser it will automatically redirected to www.nonsense1234.blogspot.com. That's why, if you experiencing trouble of your unpopular website name, you could try change it, just visit the "www.co.cc" to found out more about it. I hope this info could help you a bit.

I am from Malaysia and I think that it is profitable when you have your domains off your own.If you are a blogger you can make a large sum.As for me i paid RM100 a year for my domain but i am making around 2000 a year to cover up.it is very profitable and i think i can still increase it.
