While I think there are a lot of people that know it exists, very few truly know what it is, understand what it is that a domainer does, knows how they make money, etc.

When I try to explain to someone what exactly it is that I do, I often find myself using the common comparison of “Domains are like Real Estate.” I’m not really sure it can be summed up any better or more accurately, and it gives people a good idea of what exactly it is we do. Some real estate owners flip their properties, some develop the property, while others just keep their land and watch it appreciate in value. In my opinion, these are all great comparisons to what a domainer does, and a good domainer practices some form of all three.

So which of these two are a better investment? Domains or Real Estate? Domain Name Wire recently made an argument for domains with their recent post, 5 Ways Domain Names Are Better Than Real Estate.

Among other things, one of the points the article makes is the individuality of each domain. While there are multiple TLD’s, there is only one version of every dot com domain, so if you want/need a domain that someone else owns, you are at their mercy. Just ask the new owners of iReport.com! I think DNW does a great job, so click over to check out the rest of their list!
