9 Ideas For Your Dormant Domains

Just a few days ago, I conducted a poll to see how many domains you owned that were just laying dormant. That is, domains you purchased but simply were not doing anything with. So far, the results point to most people having between 1-5 dormant domains just laying around. I have a few domains myself that I don't want to pay for anymore but instead of letting them go gracefully, here are a few ideas for putting those domains to good use.

* Use As A Prize - Hold a contest and use your domains as prizes. Domain transfers are usually a painless process

* Flip Them - Domain Flipping is the process of buying a domain or website, fixing it up and selling it for a profit. So if you have a somewhat good domain name, slap on a CMS, add some relevant content for a niche and then try to sell the site.

* Auction It Off - Domain registrars such as GoDaddy have an entire auctioning system for auctioning off domains. Let the domain go to the bidder with the highest amount.
