How to Value Domain Names Step-by-Step
This is Domaining 101: learning the key characteristics that define a domain name, use them to find relevant, recent, and retail-priced comparable sales, and know how to value domain names in the wholesale and retail markets. Increasing your valuation accuracy sets you up to make better decisions in both buying and selling domain names.

Alternative Digital Assets
Building a future-proof career means diversifying your potfolio to include not only what buyers want today, but what they will want tomorrow.
