In this week's Top Topics, we take a look at full-time domain investors and their portfolio sizes, plus a domainer is looking for a more profitable opportunity than domain parking. Elsewhere, an investor is ready to quit the industry and Yuga Labs secures a significant domain name upgrade.
How Many of You Are Domaining Full Time?
Within the domain industry, thousands operate a domain investment business as a side hustle, and hundreds more have transitioned to making a full-time living from domain names.
Here, an investor wants to hear from full-time investors. More specifically, how many domain names do you need in your portfolio to sustain an income large enough to make domain investing a worthwhile, full-time venture?

What Should I Do With This Parked Domain?
Domain name parking, the practice of displaying ads on your inactive domains to generate revenue, has gone out of fashion. This is primarily thanks to the low income generated from domain parking compared to the early 2000s.
Some investors do still make money from parking, though. In this scenario, an investor made $78 from parking one domain name in 2021, but is there something else that can be done with a parked domain to make it more profitable?

Should I Have Deleted This Domain?
After acquiring a domain name last year, this investor recently performed outbound marketing on the name. Having contacted one company, the domainer realized that this company had applied for a trademark for a term similar to the domain name in question.
Worried about potential repercussions, this investor deleted the domain name, but was that the right move? Regardless, this is a potential concern that anyone doing outbound marketing on their domains should consider.

My Domaining Journey Update
Domain investing can be one of the most challenging side hustles or professions out there. The solitary nature of domaining combined with potentially sporadic sales and costs involved can mean that it’s easy to get disheartened or quit the industry entirely.
This is what one domainer is experiencing. After three years in the industry, this investor is ready to leave domain investing. As ever, other domainers have offered their advice, with plenty of sound guidance given.
