For domain names, everyone who has been on the Internet is no stranger. Basically, everyone who has been on the Internet knows the domain name, and you need to enter the URL on the browser to browse the website.

But for most people, memorizing and entering a domain name can be a hassle.

Therefore, the emergence of Zhou Xuan's hao123 has brought good news to the majority of beginners. Zhou Xuan believes that under his promotion, hao123 will definitely become popular and occupy most of the market for navigation websites.

However, it is also a good way to invest in domain names.

With the development of the Internet, the development of business, the increase of companies. More than a decade later, the number of .com domain name registrations has soared to more than 100 million, and good domain names have basically dried up.

But there are only so many good domain names, so they're expensive. As a result, many startups have to choose other new TLDs. Although many new top-level suffixes have appeared, the leader position of com for more than ten years has made the value of .com domain names far ahead of other suffixes.

It's still 1998, and many of the best com domain names are still grabbed and have not been registered. In the last life, many domain name bigwigs on the Internet, such as Cai Wensheng and Yao Jinbo, owned many superb domain names, which were worth tens of millions of dollars after more than ten years.

Domain names have always been a value investment, that is, the domain name is owned and held, waiting for the terminal to inquire about the price.

For those companies, in order to improve their own brands, they can often spend a lot of money to buy. Let the domain name holder make money, at least dozens or even thousands of times the investment.

Later, JD.com, Xiaomi and other companies spent tens of millions of dollars to buy back their domain names from abroad, so as to protect their brands and enhance their brand influence.

It can be said that if you invest in registering a few good domain names at this time, you can be carefree for the rest of your life.

Although Zhou Xuan in the previous life knew early on that investing in domain names could make money. But like most people, there was no real action. But even if you act, it is estimated that it is the same as the general public, and it is estimated that it is true that you lose money without that eyesight.

Zhou Xuan also graduated a few years later, when it was 15 years old, and the batch of domain names was hyped up, and many people made a fortune.

Zhou Xuan and his colleagues just happened to meet that peak period, and in just half a year, ordinary domain names were speculated more than ten times higher, and some even increased dozens of times.

Everyone thinks that the big market of domain names is coming, but they don't know that those bookmakers are hyping up, and when everyone thinks that the market is coming, they rush up to raise the price, and then the bookmakers take the opportunity to ship.

Just like the greed of everyone in the stock market, buy up and not buy down. Zhou Xuan: If they make an early move, they can still make a profit. Zhou Xuan and his friends thought that it would rise, but unfortunately there was no regret medicine, and the price plummeted after half a year, and the domain name invested could only expire and delete if it was not willing to renew.

Later, Zhou Xuan really found that he was indeed not speculative material, so he had to work hard and make money steadily.

Of course, through that year's good domain names, I also know many domain hype methods.

It was now ninety-eight years, and Zhou Xuan found that there was no better era than this.

As for why I only think of investing in a domain name now, I don't have the money. You know, there are not many registrars that provide domain name services in China.

Founded in April 1996, Wanwang is one of the earliest providers to provide domain name registration services. Later, it was acquired by Alibaba, and it was favored by many domain name enthusiasts.

Zhou Xuan opened Wanwang and checked the registration price of the current domain name.

The registration price and the price of renewing for one year are more than 400 yuan, Zhou Xuan sighed in his heart, it is really expensive.

You must know that after ten years, the price of domain names has basically dropped to dozens of yuan, while the registration price and renewal fee of some new domain name extensions are only a few yuan.

In comparison, the 400 yuan at this time is simply sky-high, equivalent to more than half a month's salary.

I remember that the price was basically 120-160 yuan per year from 99 to 02, and the price was 60 yuan-100 yuan per year from 03 to 12, and it was almost maintained at about fifty or sixty yuan in the future.

On this day, Zhou Xuan was thinking about those famous companies in the future, and then checked one by one whether the domain names had been registered.

For a day, my head really hurts, and I have to endure the extremely slow Internet speed.

Not only large companies in the future, Zhou Xuan also checked the two-letter, three-number, four-number, and some number-letter combination domain names. As expected, it has been registered, but the spelling is still there, and Zhou Xuan decisively registered.

Huanyu is the name of his own company in the future, and if he has time, he has to inquire which person or company is in the hands, hoping to buy it back at a low price.

It will definitely not cost much to buy it back now, you must know that ten years later, Jingdong has spent tens of millions to buy it back.

Suning, 163, google, facebook, etc. were all registered in ninety-seven years, and Zhou Xuan was just one year away from being able to register first, but it's a pity.

However, the domain names of many companies in the back have become Zhou Xuan's pockets.

For example, Tianya, Sohu, Sina, Wanda, Baidu, Alibaba, Tieba, Huawei, Taobao, Weibo, WeChat, etc., of course, there are popular investment, financial management, tourism, roses, video and other industries pinyin and natural pinyin.

There are too many domain names in ninety-eight years, and the best domain names in later generations have not been registered, which is really cheap Zhou Xuan.

"With so many domain names, the first thing that comes to mind when those companies are founded in the future is to buy domain names from me, and then you can use the domain name as a shareholder, or invest another capital to own the shares. You know, all I can think of is the domain name of a company that will grow well in the future. It seems that I should consider building a domain name service company, so that I can also master this huge domain name resource.

A good domain name is really useful for brand promotion. The best examples are JD.com, Xiaomi, Sina Weibo, and so on. "Registering so many superb domain names, the income brought to Zhou Xuan in the future will not be more than 10 million. Not to mention money, influence is the key.

Throughout the day, Zhou Xuan registered hundreds of domain names, all of which are the best domain names of com, which are of great value.

The registration price is almost 400 yuan, and it costs tens of thousands of yuan in total. Fortunately, the total investment of the two stores only cost a little more than 150,000 yuan. Zhou Xuan still has seventy or eighty thousand here, otherwise it is really not enough.

Domain names are not like other products, if you don't register them now, you may be registered by someone else one day. And although some domain names were registered after 99 or 20 years, Zhou Xuan didn't know it, so he could only register them all in one go, starting first.

In the future, you only need to pay tens of thousands of yuan a year to renew the money, and you can sit and wait for the project to come to the door, where to find such a good thing.

After finishing the domain name thing, Zhou Xuan can finally start the development of the hao123 website and Internet café management system.

hao123 is very easy to do, it is estimated that it will take a day or two, and the Internet café management system is estimated to take a few days and half a month.

Therefore, Zhou Xuan decided that after the final exam, he would start development, strive to finish it before Chinese New Year's Eve, and then have a good year.
