    well, actually what i am really looking for is a strategy.. am kinda new to Domain'ing.

    I bought a domain (to try Domain flipping)..

    * Name of the Domain www.antiXware.com /.net
    * Registration Date Dec 07
    * What do you want to use the domain for
    1. review site for antivirus, anti spyware/adware/any other comp security software
    2. Some warez-type site

    Hmm.. did i make a wise decision in buying this domain? or does it completely goes to prove that i shouldav 'read' more?? :eek:

    if i flip this domain then how much dyu think i can get?

    and if i build a website around it, create a few backlinks, do some marketing - then would it be worth the time??? :confused:

    rESPONSE WILL BE MUCH APPRECIATED... :)

    Build the site, build traffic, give your stats, and then sell. Without those steps your name is only worth the registration fee.

    If you want to flip this name, I'd say it's only worth reg fee. If you build the site, etc. value will depend on how well the site is developed, the traffic & the revenue.

    Good to see that you have done a bit of study about domaining before rushing out & buying domains & you've only bought 1, not 10 or 50 like others. I would still suggest reading all you can about domaining & what makes domains valuable. Look at past sales to get an idea of what sells, check out domain forums, etc. There's never enought you can learn in this industry.
