Many domain investors are familiar with the importance of taking action in favorable conditions. This is because receiving top dollar for a domain name relies partially on timing. <\/p>\n

To help Above users who are buying and selling domains, we have pulled together a list of popular category trends that we have seen across the domain industry as a whole as well as on our own platform. <\/p>\n

A portion of what we took into account were trends we see between Above.com\u2019s marketplace<\/a>, brokerage service<\/a>, and ICANN-accredited registrar<\/a>:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Sports Betting \/ Gambling<\/strong> \u2013 With the recent changes in US sports betting laws, this is easily the hottest niche for registrations and sales. In fact, keywords in this niche took 6 of the top 10 spots in Verisign’s Top 10 Trending Keyword list for .COM domains last month.<\/li>\n
  2. Crypto<\/strong> \u2013 Domains in the crypto space have been hot for months now and are still going strong.<\/li>\n
  3. Travel<\/strong> \u2013 Summer is here, which means it\u2019s the perfect time of year to register and sell travel domains.<\/li>\n
  4. Marijuana<\/strong> – Similar to sports betting, frequent changes in US state-to-state laws have kept domains in this niche highly relevant. In fact, it was the only non-crypto keyword to round out 2017’s Q4 Top-10 list for .COM domains.<\/li>\n
  5. Shopping\/eCommerce<\/strong> \u2013 This last niche should be no surprise. Shopping and eCommerce domains are popular and can sell or generate traffic year-round.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If you need help selling your domains, email our domain brokerage team.<\/a> They can negotiate on your behalf and settle on a price you will be happy with.<\/p>\n
