Don't You Like Success?
Be frugal, it pays! If you are looking for an exact domain name that already has traffic generated to its website, domain name after market may be the purchasing choice for you. With after market purchases, you can buy a domain name from either an individual owner or a third-party service that sells domain names.
While names such as "books.com" may sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars, you can usually find a good domain name more targeted (such as sciencefictionbooks.com) for under $250 by utilizing after market purchases.

Cash In Those Old, Unused Domains.
Make a profit from junk domain names! If you have a stockpile of unused domain names, a domain name investment service may be able to help you. By selling those domains that are valuable to other services, you can put cash back in your pocket.
Domain name after market services will list your domain in a searchable database on their site, and promote your domain name through emails and newsletters. These services don't make money unless you do, so they are definitely motivated to move your domain.

Finding A REAL Domain Investment Service.
Beware of the leopard with no spots! Domain name investment services are not a regulated industry. However, it is easy to see who provides a solid domain assessment and who does not.
If a company judges your website on a non-uniform list of criteria, or they make guarantees of large sums of money, you can bet they are not a very reliable domain name service and you should steer clear.
*Look for companies that have a good resume of domains they have worked with in the past.
