So, what is the best thing to do? If you have money, best option buy land(domain name) which is ready to be developed. then give it to somebody for developing(say it takes 1 year to develop). Rent it or Sell it then split the money (60% land owner 40% for the builder % depends on the cost of the land). There is one more option. buy land and develop your self which is the tough thing to do unless you have help and money. Best this is buy good land in the right location. You never loose. Don't buy farm land middle of no where. Buying land in suburbs(2nd grade domains) is bit affordable and grows faster and will be good return on investment faster than prime land(generics).cities always grow. cheers Domains are land,

There is not need to build a huge shop. Instead you can just add several small shops. Having more shops will be a lot easier if you sell digital products though.

I tend to see a domain, have a great idea, buy the domain and before I've even started with the site I've bought another domain name with another idea and so on and so on.. Maybe nominet should only allow 1 domain per week per person haha, that might help me a bit really. Interested post, shops that take no running, that once established look after themselves would be great!
