Blog Flipping Tip: 15 Domain Name Extensions
Mar 20th
Ok. So you have a killer niche idea for your next blog flip, but the ideal domain name is taken. Many times the .net and .info variation will be available, but you prefer to stick with the .com version.
Well this can be annoying but no need to fret, as below i give you over 15 creative domain name suffixes and prefixes which you can use to snatch up the “next best thing”.
- Guide (as in yoga exercise guide.com)
- Hut (as in coupon hut.com)
- Point (jonas brothers point.com)
- Just (prefix)
- Blog (vegas golf blog.com)
- Weblog (taylor swift weblog.com)
- News (twilight movie news.com)
- Big (prefix)
- Solo (seo solo.com)
- Simply (prefix)
- Hub (blogging tips hub.com)
- Tips (social networking tips.com)
- Get (prefix)
- Zone (miley cyrus zone.com)
- Pros (freelance writing pros.com)
- Surplus (this one is good for product-based blogs such as plumbers surplus.com)
These are just some of the domain name extenders i have used when registering a name for a blog flip, when the one i prefer is already in use by someone else.
So next time you have that killer niche idea and a name in mind, but it’s taken, get creative and adopt one of the multi-purpose extenders above.
I’ve seen quite a number of great domain names lately on Sitepoint and would ask that next time you visit, do focus on the extenders some sellers are using. Then see if you can come up with a few on your own.
Oh! and one last thing, if at any time you have doubted the importance of using keywords in your domain name, see what Matt Cutts has to say about it.
Reader Question?
Have you used a funky domain name suffix or prefix that didn’t make my list above? Share below.
New Flip, Twilight Movie News Blog
Dec 16th
As some of you know i have been busy building a few flip blogs. One of which is a Twilight blog.
I have it just about ready to flip on Sitepoint. This Twilight blog is a true beauty, it features a customized premium theme and a custom header logo.
Traffic and Revenue Summary
The blog is fully indexed and receives regular daily organic traffic from Google, Yahoo, and MSN. As for revenue it has that too. This is a new blog (only three weeks old) but already has made over $50 in revenue. Mostly from a few affiliate program links.
This blog is going to make someone a good deal of money, if promoted correctly and updated regularly.
Can i See It?
Sure. Visit http://www.twilightmovienews.com and take a sneak peek.
Niche Research
This blog is in a **super hot** niche right now. Unless you have been living under a rock, you know that the Twilight movie is everywhere with its fanbase growing bigger everyday. The movie came out on November 21st.
The future of Twilight
The Twilight saga has just begun, with three more movies in the works. The second movie New Moon starts shooting in March 2009.
Grab this blog while you still can. To inquire on buying it before i list at auction on Sitepoint, send me an email via my contact form above. All blog site business details will be provided.

Entrecard.com Up For Sale, Starting Bid $100,000
Sep 25th
Have $100,000 lying around? That is the minimum bid to buy Entrecard.com. I just noticed the listing on Sitepoint. I’m not sure why Graham (the founder) is selling, but it will cause BUZZ in the blog-o-sphere for sure.
Why Is Graham Selling Entrecard? (read his own words below)
I am selling because I have come to a stalemate. Entrecard is growing fast, but I do not have the resources to put behind it. I recently met extensively with Venture Capitalists who were going to make a 700k seed investment and a 2-5m follow on Series A investment in 6 months. The deal fell through in the 11th hour, right before the terms sheet, because they lost faith in my ability to execute the plan after a series of tests in which I did not know I was being tested. The valuation we were discussing was 8 million. We were going to open a headquarters, hire 10 people, and go straight to the top. Then it fell apart, and after getting my hopes up, I just haven’t been able to get back on my feet. I’m a wreck and feeling like a failure to come so close only to drop it due to my idiocy.
Sitepoint Listing Snapshot
Around since November 2007, Entrecard is quite popular with many bloggers. It has lost some steam in the last few months, but it is still a formidable property.
It averages over 3 million page views monthly, no small feat. This will be an interesting sale for sure. You can go to the Sitepoint listing, subscribe to updates, and follow along. I’m as curious as you, to see what it will fetch.
