Like anything else, it depends....obviously on how much you sell it for and what your basis is in it. Then depending on the type of asset your holding it as (for example as a business asset or a personal investment), and what your business may be...it will either be a capital gain...generally taxed at 15% or ordinary income...which gets taxed at your own personal rate (depending on your other income, deductions, etc.). Of course, it would only be on the gain above your investment basis in either case.
A Domain Reseller
Yes you can sell a domain name that you currently own. The best way to do this is to contact a domain broker who can broker the sale between you and the buyer for you.
It depends on how desirable the domain name is. Most domain names will only sell for a few dollars. However, some have been known to sell for up to thousands. Again though, you will likely only have to pay a few dollars.
One can sell a domain name through various sources online. Some of those sources are iGoldRush, Sedo, Domain Superstar, Real Time Register and Go Daddy.
Domain buyer
If the question is whether you can buy the yahoo domain name, the answer is probably not. Theoretically you can purchase any domain name, however you would have to convince yahoo to sell, and it would be extremely expensive. If the question is whether you can purchase a domain name from yahoo, the answer is no, try another website such as BigDaddy
There are many ways to purchase a domain name. Sites like GoDaddy and Name Cheap sell domain names at low prices. If one is currently paying for web hosting, the web host may also have a bundle deal to get a domain name for their website at a lower cost.
well if you own it then you can check if it is a good name with a lot of search then you can sell it, otherwise a domain without a website means nothing.
To register an internet domain one must sign up and pay for a domain name on one of the many online sites that sell domain names. Some of these sites include Godaddy, Domain, and Dreamhost.
Today internet activities are very fast then other activities. Today many people created an own website and they buy a domain name. I think millions of domain name sell every day.
Same as with any company, contact them and see if they are interested.
There are many companies that sell domains. GoDaddy is a popular one, known for its television ads. If one is only looking for information about domain sales and not actually interested in buying a domain, online publications like 'DNJournal' have information about how much various domains have sold for.
