Hey everyone, I want to thank each of you for being part of this journey and for supporting what I set out to build. However, after carefully reviewing the sustainability of the current paid model, it’s clear that it is no longer viable. The costs to keep up with daily lists, periodic videos, and the workload to sustain a paid membership have exceeded the number of active domainers participating at a level necessary to justify it. Rather than shutting it down entirely, I’ve decided on a better path: 🚀 The community is becoming 100% FREE - All current paid members can downgrade to the free plan at any time and retain full access to everything. - I will continue sharing my graded domain lists, but only on the days I’m actively using them myself, instead of daily. This will reduce costs while still providing real value when it matters. - My goal is to keep this as a closed, focused, high-quality domainer community, just without the financial barrier. 🙏 A sincere thank you Even though the paid model hasn’t proven sustainable, I believe this new structure will allow the community to thrive in a more organic and productive way, while also allowing me to focus my time where it can create the most impact. I’m excited for what’s ahead and I hope this free community can become an even stronger place for serious domainers to grow together. Thank you again for believing in this vision. You can downgrade at any time, and nothing will change in terms of access. -- Michael Rader

We chase names that are memorable, easy to say, brandable… and then someone buys this 🤦‍♂️😂. I admit it. I've bought some ugly names, like gsftw .com, but wait! If you Google "gsftw", you'll find an identity, a use. Do you have any names in your portfolio that don’t seem “charming” at first glance?. Have a happy weekend!

Hey @Michael Rader , how do you keep track of all your domain names? Do you use a template, a spreadsheet, or some other system? If you don’t mind, would you be willing to share it with us? I’m sure many of us would love to see how a pro organises his portfolio. Thanks! 🙌

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FF5j7wqYa0 Had to come in here and share this Any new/intermediate domainers should 100% watch this to see the domain/brand brainstorming process through finalizing the idea, then you can actually see the negotiation and broker outreach process from a real-life broker/client end-user perspective. I am actually shocked he was so hesitant at 25k for this name and even more shocked he got it for 20k. I am certain this name goes for around 20k if not more at auction. This may be the single best domaining video I've ever seen.

I just want to keep you updated on what I'm working on. ✅ Domainer IQ Wholesale Marketplace. I want our community to have their own way of buying and selling bulk domains. Attached is an image of that project I am working on. ✅ More Videos I have a couple of conversation videos lines up, and a new tutorial video in the works. ✅ Drop Tool (Perhaps I'll use my own domain, Dropable .com) Once these are done I want to make it easier for us to look at the graded expiring lists that I share here daily. Instead of CSVs, you'll have a much better tool to look, sort and collect domains, and see my own picks. If you envision anything else feel free to share in the comments!
