Have acquired InsuranceComparison.com

I acquired the domain, InsuranceComparison.com recently and it took me nearly one month to close this deal. I have sold a few insurance domains and I like that niche.

I am planning to develop this domain, InsuranceComparison.com into a business website but it would need extensive project to do such a website, I believe. Do you recommend/know any business website developer who could create an insurance comparison website?

I am thinking of using subdomains such as

Car.InsuranceComparison.com, Health.InsuranceComparison.com, Pet.InsuranceComparison.com
Home.InsuranceComparison.com
Travel.InsuranceComparison.com
Life.InsuranceComparison.com

etc…

What do you think of such subdomain creation? Would you suggest creating directories instead of subdomains?

Wedding Insurance Domains. What do you think?

According to the stats, there are 2.7 millon couples who get married in the US every year. Worldwide figures might show 5 to 10 times that.

Wedding reception arrangements could be costly and average cost for a wedding in the UK is around £30,000 which is equivlent to around $45,000 in the US. Therefore couples are encouraged by people to get “wedding insurance” in case anything goes wrong.

What do you think of “wedding insurance” domains?

Insurance domains are in good demand because of their nature of being used as a business website brand/name.

e.g. “insurance” domain sales are:

InsuranceRates.com sold for $225,000 (sold in 2008)

LAinsurance.com sold for $100,000 (sold in 2009)

InsuranceLeads.com sold for $50,000 (sold in 2008)

(I am selling an insurance domain in xx,xxx range and the transfer is nearly finished.)

Following is the list of the “wedding insurance” domains I have acquired. You may make offers at Sedo if interested in any.

Will I keep on making mistakes at Sedo? Today, I just started another low reserve auction AGAIN!!

I made a mistake a few weeks ago when I decided to try my luck by starting a very low reserve auction at Sedo. The domain name was WebcamPlace.com and the auction was started at $100. There was no more bid and I ended up selling the domain with a small loss.

Today, I have started a premium domain, low reserve auction at Sedo AGAIN!!! The domain name is PetInsuranceComparison.com and there are around 30,000 EXACT searches per month for the keywords and CPC (cost per click) is around $14 per click. I value the domain in xx,xxx range but I am trying my luck again. You may visit the Sedo domain auction here. I am not sure this time now because last time there were no more bids even at $100.

Let’s see. May visit the petinsurancecomparison.com auction here.
