INTERNET REAL ESTATE CASH


What is a Domain Name?
A domain name is essentially your web address. Anyone that types in your domain name in a web browser will be taken to your website. Domain Registrars or Web Hosting companies can help you register your domain name from a variety of domain types. We also register country-level domain names such as .us, .ca, .ng and .uk which represent websites from their respective countries. The length of the domain name registration term can vary from 1 year to 5 years depending on its type. Locking a domain name in for a 5 year term will generally give you the best pricing.

INTERNET REAL ESTATE
In the past three years alone, the number of dotcom names has soared more than 130 percent to 66 million. Yet every two minutes, another joins the list. Registering and selling domain names is one of the best ways of making money on the Internet. It is easy, exciting, requires very low investment and has a very huge profit potential.

WHAT ARE DOMAIN NAMES?
A domain name refer to the names assigned to a websites on the worldwide web-Also known as Business names or trademarks. Businesses, companies or individuals seeking to promote their web presence usually register domain names. An example of a domain name is www.Google.com www.Goldlinklisuranceplc.com, which is a registered trademark of Gold Link Insurance plc on the Internet. Thus, if you click here http://www.Goldlinkisuranceplc.com it will take you directly to the Gold Link Insurance Plc website.

CREATING YOUR DOMAIN NAME
There are principles that you must pay attention to when creating your domain name.

POPULARITY OF THE NAMES
The name you are creating must be something that is familiar i.e. Most people can easily identify with it. For example a name like http://www.weddingcattering.com would certainly be more popular and command a lot of attention than a name such as http://www.denpako.com Also, the suffix you attach to the popularity level and likelihood of purchase. Suffixes like .COM .NET, .BIZ and .ORG are the most popular.

SHORTNESS
The domain name you are creating must not be too long. They should be two worded or preferably, one worded domain names like www.bible.com, or www.omega.com

VIABILITY
The domain name should be completely viable, i.e. it should cater for a business or sector of industry which is in high demand. E.g creating a domain name for a business in the stocks industry which is rapidly growing, you might create a name like stockscorner.com. The more generic the name is the better.

PRICING
The price you are offering your domain name matters a lot. You may want to carry out an appraisal of your domain name before putting a price tag on it. This may cost you up to and $60, however, there are some free domain appraisal sites such as swiftappraisal.com and godaddy.com My advice is, don’t waste your time giving your domain names to any appraised site, just determine the price at which you would like to sell it, preferably between $100-$5000. This way you’ll have a higher turn around rate. More so as your domain names can be as low as $2-$8, and if you sell one for just $200, that is still a very huge 2500% profit. Aside these, creating domain names are very easy. A look at our environment will reveal that people are into various types of businesses ranging from clothing to jewelries, automobile electronics accessories etc. Many businesses exist on Internet that you will not and cannot find in the physical environment. Here is a small list of online businesses: search engine optimization, affiliate marketing, Banking, Mobile technologies and communication gadgets, real estate etc. What you simply should do as a domineer is to create domain names using certain keywords that are particular or related to a chosen business area or sector. These words must be words that are commonly used in that particular sector. For example, for a business sector like Real Estate, you can create domain names such as Estateproperties.com or Preportyagents.com You can see that the domain names not only fall in line with the principle described above, but also consist of Keywords, which are relevant and related to the Real Estate businesses. Anybody that needs information on real estate will most likely type anyone of these keywords. -Real estate, Estate, Properties etc on the search engine. Consequently, anyone that wants to start a real estate business on the Internet and needs a domain name that will represent his real estate business and a tract more visitors to his site will go for any one of the domain names you have created. All you need to do is turn on your thinking cap.

Lagos Host ltd, 28 Ondo Street off Ajayi Rd, Ogba, Lagos.

REGISTER YOUR DOMAIN NAME
To register your domain names, you can go to http://www.yahoo.com and register for just $2.99/year. Register it immediately, if you don’t your domain name could be registered someone else and he becomes the legitimate own (Domain name ownership is based on first come first served). You can also register your domain names at Godaddy.com, Dotcom.com and register .com.

SELLING YOUR DOMAIN NAMES
After registering your domain names, you should sign up for a free account with a domain broker. A domain broker, just like a stock broker, is a company that acts on behalf of both the buyer and seller of a domain to complete the transfer/sale of domain names from one register to another. You can sign up with http://www.sedo.com or www.goldkey.com They both provide you with a domain parking service that enables you to earn money on your domain names without the need to develop your own website. They also help you brand your domain names and offer other features to maximize the purchase of your domain names by buyers. Parking your domain names implies that you are handing over the management of your domain names to someone else. So when you park your domain names with sedo.com and goldkey.com, it means that you‘ve handed over the management of your domain names to them. This makes it easier for you since you don’t have to worry about somebody poaching on your domain names. Also, you are able to benefit from their wealth of experience on the Internet. What sedo.com and goldkey.com now do, apart from helping you get buyers for the domain names, is to carry out some Internet marketing business with your domain names. Actually, they create and develop websites for your domain names and fill if with relevant SEO (Search Engine Optimized) contents which attract online advertisers. They then pay a percentage from the adverts. Gold key pays every 15th day of the month, once your account balance for the month exceeds the $100 minimum payment requirement.

THE WAY YOU CAN RECEIVE PAYMENT
Once someone gets interested in buying your domain names, your domain broker (Sedo.com or
goldkey.com) contacts you via e-mail. You will then need to allow your domain broker to transfer the domain name to the buyer. On complete negotiation, the buyer pays the money into an escrow account with your domain broker while the broker pays to your own domiciliary account (here in Nigeria). Seod.com and goldkey.com both allow you to receive your payment via wire transfer. You can also receive your payment by opening a US bank account with E-trade. Please do not register a domain name that is not yours. This practice is called “Cyber-squating”, and tough laws are now in place to punish those guilty of such.

CASE STUDY
The man at the top of this little-known hierarchy is Kevin Ham—one of a handful of major-league “domainer” in the world and arguably the shrewdest and most ambitious of the lot. Even in a field filled with unusual career paths, Ham’s stands out. Trained as a family doctor, he put off medicine after discovering the riches of the web. Since 2000 he has quietly cobbled together a portfolio of some 300,000 domains that, combined with several other ventures, generate an estimated $70 million a year in revenue. (Like all his financial details, Ham would neither confirm nor deny this figure). Working mostly as a solo operator, Ham has looked for every opening and exploited every angle—even inventing a few of his own—to expand his enterprise. Early on, he wrote software to sang expiring names on the cheap. He was one of the first to take advantage of a loophole that allows people to register a name and return it without cost after a free trial, on occasion grabbing hundreds of thousands of names in one swoop. And what few people know is that he’s also the man behind the domain world’s latest scheme: profiting from traffic generated by the millions of people who mistakenly type “cm” instead of “com” at the end of a domain name. Try it with almost any name you can think of - - Beer.cm, Newyroktimes.cm, even Anyname.cm – and you’ll land on a page called Agoga.com, a site filled with ads served up by Yahoo (Charts, Fortune 500). Ham makes money every time someone clicks on an ad- -as does his partner in this venture, the West African Country of Cameroon. Why Cameroon? It has the unforeseen good fortune of owning. cm as its country code - - just as Germany runs all names that end with de. The difference is that hardly any. cm names are registered, and the letters are just on keyboard slip away from.com, the mother lord of all domains. Ham landed connections to the Cameroon government and flew in his people to reroute the traffic. And if he gets his way, Colombia (.co), Oman (.om), Niger (.ne), and Ethiopia (.et) will be his as well. “It’s in the works,” Ham says over lunch in his hometown of Vancouver, British Columbia. “That’s why I can’t talk about it”. He’s nearly as reluctant to share details about his newest company called Reinvent Technology, into which he’s investing tens of millions of dollars to build a powerhouse of Internet businesses around his most valuable properties.

SELLING THROUGH YOUR WEBSITE


How to accept credit cards on your website
Accepting credit cards on a website is absolutely necessary for the success of any online sales efforts. While there are several other available payment methods for websites, credit cards surpass every other one because of their wide use and convenience. There are two types of companies that can enable a website to accept credit cards. The first is a 3rd party processor, and the second is a merchant service provider (called an MSP, or ISO). The primary differences between 3rd party processors and MSPs are the way a website integrates with their service, the liability that the website owner has over the transactions that they process, and the price that a they will pay for the ability to accept credit cards. 3rd party processors include companies like Paypal.com, Google Checkout, 2checkout.com, CCnow, Clickbank.com, and many more.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MSP’S AND 3RD PARTY PROCESSORS:
MSP’s
· The business apply’s for a merchant account directly with a MSP.
· Business is personally liable for everything that they process.
· Customer’s credit card statements have the business name on them.
· Use with a Payment Gateway (Seamless integration available).
· Some fixed monthly fees in addition to processing costs.
· Possible setup fee.
· Possible long term contract requirement.

3RD PARTY PROCESSORS
· Business processes under the name of the 3rd party processor.
· Customer’s credit card statement has 3rd party processors name on it.
· Any dispute is made through the 3rd party processor and not the processing bank.
· Business and customer have limited protection from being ripped off.
· Must use 3rd party processors checkout system (Paypal has one exception).
· No fixed monthly fees.
· Some have setup fees.
· Most have high processing costs (Paypal and Google Checkout don’t).
· No contracts.
· Business is partially liable for the transactions that they process.

WHICH SHOULD A BUSINESS USE?
Assuming that you are based in the US, this depends mainly on how much business you do, the type of products you sell, how you want to integrate payments into your website, and whether you sell on eBay or not. For businesses in the US, Paypal is pretty much going to be the lowest cost method of accepting payments that you will find. As much as I personally hate to admit it, it will be very hard to find a company that can beat the cost of PayPal. However, PayPal has many negative attributes which often make it a poor solution for serious ecommerce websites. Personally, I think PayPal makes an excellent supplementary payment method, as there is a fair number of online shoppers that prefer to use it.

HOW MUCH YOU BUSINESS YOU DO: Merchant accounts have fixed monthly fees associated with them. If you are only processing a few dollars a day, it is simply a waste of money to use a merchant account. 3rd party processors don’t have fixed monthly fees, and will be a more cost-effective solution for low volume businesses or an individual. If you do a lot of business, then a merchant account will give you better control over the funds that you process, and how your payment method integrates into your website. Many people consider the threshold of switching from a 3rd party processor to a MSP at about $1000 per month in processing. Personally, I would switch to a merchant account at about $500 per month, so that I could provider a cleaner experience for my customers. But either way, these aren’t huge volumes of processing before a merchant account may be warranted.

THE TYPE OF PRODUCTS YOU SELL: Many product types are considered high risk. High risk refers to products or services that carry an increased risk of being charged back, or being obtained by or sold to fraudulent buyers. A few examples of high risk businesses include anything adult related, travel related, online pharmacy, and download-able products. Online in general is much higher risk than retail. On a personal note, I think that most online businesses will experience some sort of fraud in their online ventures. Neither 3rd party processors nor MSP’s like providing services to high risk businesses. In these cases a business will have to contact everyone to find a company that can provide service to them. In some cases they may have to process through an offshore merchant account provider.

HOW YOU WANT TO INTEGRATE PAYMENTS INTO YOUR WEBSITE: If you want a completely seamless system where your customer never leaves your website, then you are going to need a merchant account and a payment gateway. Payment gateways generally have two integration methods, but I only recommend using an API method of integration. 3rd party processors require your customers to fill out their information on a website owned by the 3rd party processor. A seamless integration method is considered by many to be fundamental in providing a smooth and efficient shopping experience. Paypal does provide a system called payments pro, which is a step in the seamless direction, but it is difficult to integrate into a website, and still creates some usability barriers. If you look on any major ecommerce website, you will find that they are all using a seamless integration with their payment processing method. 3rd party processors may be an alternative payment method, but they are rarely the primary method for a serious company.

DO YOU SELL ON EBAY? If you sell on eBay, you should accept Paypal. Paypal integrates seamlessly with the eBay checkout system, and the majority of eBay users expect to be able to use Paypal to complete their purchase. Merchant accounts are difficult to integrate with eBay and must always rely on multiple independent systems for them to work smoothly and automatically. Businesses that sell a lot on eBay will probably look into one of these checkout management systems at some point, but Paypal is the perfect solution for the majority of smaller eBay businesses.

NOW THAT YOU HAVE YOUR PROCESSING METHOD:
I am making the assumption that you already have a shopping cart in place on your website. This can either be a custom designed system, or can be a pre-made cart system like oscommerce, zen cart, and many of the other popular carts. If you went the merchant account direction, you will also need a payment gateway. It is easiest to get a payment gateway from the same company you are getting a merchant account through. If you already know what payment gateway you want, make sure that the merchant account provider can set this up for you. If you don’t know what payment gateway you want, Authorize.net is always a safe bet. There are many payment gateways available, with the most common being Authorize.net, and Verisign. You will want to use a payment gateway that has an API (Application Programming Interface) method of integration. The API is what allows your website to transparently integrate with the payment gateway.

REQUIREMENTS TO PROCESS ON YOUR WEBSITE:
1. A SSL (Secure Socket Layer) Certificate (needed if you use a payment gateway API).
2. A shopping cart system (This can be custom made or you can use readymade shopping cart software).
3. Integration of your payment gateway or 3rd party checkout system.
4. Merchant account providers also have a list of requirements to setup an ecommerce merchant account. I recommend making sure that as many as possible are met before applying for a merchant account. Depending on whether you have a custom designed or a generic shopping cart system, it can be as easy as pressing a button, or as hard as writing a complex integration script, to integrate your website with the payment gateway. Most shopping carts that are widely used will have a module or plug-in to integrate with most of the popular payment gateways. Custom carts will need a custom payment module, which should be coded by the person who designed the cart or another competent programmer. For a guide visit http://www.merchant-account-services.org/article/authorize-net-php-integration using php5. Also, if you are interested in purchasing a Authorize.net integration script, authnetscripts.com has scripts for PHP, ASP, PERL, and Cold Fusion. I have used their scripts myself and highly recommend them. The price of one of these scripts is far less than hiring a programmer to write one for you. Integration tutorials for most payment gateways are available in just about every programming language, but again these should be programmed by a professional. If you need to hire someone to do the integration for you, I recommend services like getafreelancer.com and rentacoder.com. Make sure to pick a service provider with positive feedback, and make price a secondary factor. Here is a brief guide on how to use freelance marketplaces. If you do use a payment gateway, make sure you are not storing credit card numbers or other sensitive information unless you know exactly what you are doing, how to properly encrypt the data that is being stored, your server is PCI compliant, and your website does not have security vulnerabilities.

ONCE YOU’RE INTEGRATED:
Once your website is integrated with your payment gateway or 3rd party processor, you are ready to start accepting payments. This whole process is not really as complicated as it seems, and should be takes in steps to prevent problems.

QUICK OVERVIEW:
Merchant Account / Payment Gateway Flow -is the order of setting things up that I recommend for the least amount of potential problems.
1. Setup Website
2. Setup Merchant Account and Payment Gateway
3. Purchase and Install SSL Certificate
4. Integrate Website with Payment Gateway
5. Test Integration, and Run A Real Transaction
6. Go Live!

3RD PARTY PROCESSOR INTEGRATION - requires less structured planning, but some ordering will make a difference.
1. Setup 3rd Party Processor Account
2. Setup Website
3. Integrate Website with 3rd Party Processor
4. Test and Run A Real Transaction
5. Go Live!

Hopefully this whole process goes smoothly for you. Once everything is complete, you can focus on the marketing and promotion of your ecommerce business.
