    Nice contribution. You can also try freshdrop.net and tdnam for good domains.
    Green on your way.

    Did you download a list at least 6 days old? The top list are newer names, and most registars keep them for 5 days before they are available for registration again. Also, add at least 20 words for your filter list for best results. The small list I gave was just an example, and of course I didn't give away my best words! :p

    I sell my domains on eBay. I'm sure there are other places to sell them but I've made pretty consistent income selling domains on eBay for an hour of work a day. Speaking of which, I have another tip:

    You can park your domains at:

    http://www.sedo.com

    Sedo will share profit with you for people who click your ads, and will allow you to track traffic. Some domains I buy already have traffic, which means I use them or sell them for a higher price. Also, people who come to the site and are interested in buying your domain can make an offer (but Sedo takes a large chunk as commission). I've sold quite a few domains to buyers here.

    I would feel like I'm ripping people off for this little info, lol.

    Thanks for all the compliments. I'm producing a video of some of the things written here as we speak and hope it will help you all.

    I am having problems with the filter. I added my list to the "input list". Then I did the "filter setup". I put in the words that Sherry suggested and few more of my own as a trial run. I hit okay, and then clicked "Go". Nothing happened.

    None of the names filter into the output list. I put the same list of words in all three sections of the filter setup...could this be why? I just really don't know how to make it work.

    Only put each word in ONE section (prefix, suffix, etc). If you put the same word in all the columns, you are effectively telling the software to find:

    loanloanloan.com

    That kind of name probably doesn't exist. :p

    This is great information. Rep added. I haven't read all of the posts yet... it's too early... haven't had my starbucks mocha frappuccino yet. :D

    I don't know if someone already said this, but you should do the video.

    I'll be making the video this week and the next. I think it'll come in 5 parts (download list, importing, filter set up, bulk registration, parking, and misc.), although I am a little self conscious of my voice, lol! I gotta warn ya, don't mind me if I'm stuttering like mad!

    Don't worry about it. I have seen a lot worse on video than stuttering. I have no problems with voice, but the idea of being in front of, instead of behind the camera is what gets to me. I will be doing some videos of my own in the next couple of weeks.

    Besides if stuttering is the problem, then just rehearse your lines... and it will be a lot easier. Stuttering is a cognitive problem. Your mind is focusing too intently on speaking a word that you can't speak it at all. I have always equated it to "my brain is working faster than my mouth can move". Just rehearse, slow down, and take your time. And if all else fails, it is in fact video, so just do re-takes and edit the video.

    Sir Anthony Hopkins gave the best advice about public speaking and learning lines. If you memorize your lines by heart to the point of not having to think about it, they will no longer be lines. They will be part of you, and the words that make up the lines will become second nature. They will more or less become part of your language. He probably didn't say it in those words, but it was something to that effect.

    It isn't really being on camera that bothers me... it is the fact that once it is uploaded, you can't undo it. Pirates will have the video on eMule within the hour. :p

    Thank you very much. This is absolutely amazing information. I was thinking of flipping websites, but this is a quicker way of earning some income. This could allow me to accumulate some seed money to flip websites.
