Newbie needs appraisal help

[joergstgt]

I'm very new to domaining, let me know your thoughts on any of these domains and if I made a good choice. Also, let me know how much you would let them go for if you had the domain.
Criticism is appreciated...
As i already said I'm a newbie to domaining but been around building websites for a long time.

here's my Portfolio.

12klick.com
12maxx.com
142day.com
14talk.com
14xl.com
goldinfos.com
goldinfos.net
goldinfos.org
investinfos.com
investreporter.com
moneyworkers.com

I would rate moneyworkers.com the best of the bunch there.

Could you elaborate on your thinking with regards the domain names starting with the number you registered? Any special purpose. Looking at them they are worth less then reg fee to me.

hi dnxpert,

first i wana thank you for your reply.
Until yet i haven't an idea for the ones which have numbers. I bought them because they're short ones.
12Klick.com could setup for a german ppc program or something. Klick means in german click.
14talk.com may for any communication related program. Maybe Voip, chat, cellphone.

Why did you chose 12 or 14 at the start though?

To be honest, numbers at the start of a domain name are very rarely advised.

Even common numbers like 365 or 247 go better at the end of a word like football365.com or sport247.com.

It is a lot more common then 247sport.com or 365football.com

ah ok, understand. You're absolutley right.
But had the wordplay 12 (one to) and 14 (one for) in my mind

[dnxpert]

Aha fair enough, I did not think of the one two, one four - it's not very common.

To be honest, those domains are worth less then reg fee, but, don't be discouraged. We have all been there ( figuring out our first registrations ), and we all understand how hard it is to start.

Before you buy any further domains I suggest you read the DNXpert.com blog and read a lot of posts here at the forums. You will find a lot of valuable advice about how to start and what to look for in a domain name. For a start I would advise you to avoid numbers and hyphens ( - ) in your domain names unless absolutely necessary.

Let me know if you need further advise or directions.

I agree. The domains do not see to be valuable just yet. However, if you promote them with alittle onpage SEO work (content, meta data fields and sitemaps) you can gain ground in a few months and probably increase their value. This would, of course, require actually building a template site or placing some content on the domain. Simply parking these types of domain names is porbably not going to drive much in terms of immediate sales.

Just my 2cents...
