Domainers fail because:

1. They reg junk domains.
2. They don’t understand development.
3. They can’t afford renewals.
4. They lack confidence and blame it on lacking support from others.
5. Get burned out sitting in front of a computer.

Domainers succeed because:

1. They do their research. (buy in the aftermarket.)
2. They learn to develop or team up with developers. (earn revs)
3. They implement a consistent marketing/sales strategy.
4. They are enthusiastic, passionate and confident.
5. They take breaks.

So, why don’t you disclose what are the changes you did to improve, so that new domainers could follow.

Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.
