🆕 Domain Picks at Odys

This week's top aged domain picks at Odys, where I discuss what I'd do with a former failed NFT project / website

Hey there đź‘‹,

I recently joined the Domain Academy course & community led by Michael Cyger (who sold it to GoDaddy).

I’ve completed the basics of Domain Name Investing, but the Domain Academy Investor course is super in-depth at 20 hours long. I’m actually learning way more than I expected, and am a long way away from achieving this certified badge:

And there’s a webinar I’m looking forward to going through about using advanced filters on ExpiredDomains.net.

The training comes with the premium membership of the Discount Domain Club, and as I’ve been buying more domains on GoDaddy recently it’s a no-brainer.

This week’s newsletter is sponsored by me

I’ve pre-launched The Newsletter Is The Business where I’m going to be teaching how to funnel website portfolio traffic and existing lists into an editorial newsletter in a way where the newsletter itself can become its own business.

Sales have been going pretty well:

I’ll be launching at some point in March, where the price will be either $197 or $247, but until then you can get access at the prelaunch price of just $97.

Ok on to this week’s domain picks.

Cheers!

🆕 Aged Domains at Odys

Most SEO domains are ugly as hell, but some actually make for decent brands. Here are my top picks of the new brandable domains with link juice on Odys, to build sites out on

2 years of age, 213 unique referring domains, 6 high authority links

History of domain

Looks like the site was to sell an NFT collection around Nirvana but never went anywhere - there are 88 items on Opensea with no activity. Here’s the previous anchor text from some high DR sites that are linking to the domain:

What Patey would do

I’d try to get the domain to rank for music NFT keywords with low difficulty:

I’d then funnel that traffic into a newsletter about NFTs - I have one of those ;)

Other Odys domains that caught my eye:

Snoras.com - $4,780

27 years of age, 276 unique referring domains, 2 high authority links

History of domain

A domain that used to host the site of one of the largest banks in Lithuania.

Odys Monetization Angle

Use this domain to build out an authority website focused on personal finance. Create a blog with dedicated sections covering anything and everything associated with financial products, including loans, credit cards, and insurance among other things. All in all, you can freely touch upon any topic related to personal finance. Monetized via affiliate marketing and sponsored content.

17 years of age,135 unique referring domains, 1 high authority links

History of domain

Former domain of the site of a Japanese health blog that offered news and advice on fixing a downturned posture and having a straight neck.

Odys Monetization Angle

This domain would be a picture-perfect platform for hosting an authority site focused on all things orthopaedics. Create a blog and fill it with content such as articles, promotional materials, instructionals, reviews of various services & medications, and everything in between. Monetized via display ads, affiliate marketing, and sponsored content.

I’m often asked where I hand register domains, and the easy answer is Namecheap. They also offer Handshake domains, and I will likely be staking my .lazy TLD there in the future to sell decentralized SLDs.
