5 Name-Free Careers in Domaining

Domain name careers can scare off some of the newbie domainers because they sense  a ton of hard money has to funnel into those bursting domain portfolios. Those domain names took time to buy and resources to amass. Many domainers started small. And some concentrated  effort has been done buying and selling names  instead of developing core competencies in domain services.

But getting in on the ground floor of a career with website developers and name owners is the most available free occupation opportunity and career education online. Here are some ways to earn money in the domain space without ever owning a domain name. The domain world is one where the ramp up to any point in the compass to profit starts on its own tilt.

1. Template Maker

For every open source application or freeware website type, each website owner or blogger wants a custom look for their template. The template is the group of files that organizes and projects the two dimensional look of the site. Because the application is open source, every like programmer will have a site that looks exactly the same. Templates can work on standard or custom designs and releases.

The scope of freedom to create a template is limitless. Downloads can be conveyed from a portal website free, fees charged for bulk access, custom design purchased, or donation-request vended basis. The designer can decide how much they want to charge for each. Sometimes a design is a feature a domain owner will invest more money in to make the site experience better.

2. Content Writer

Minisites and content articles are the development manna in answer to a domainer’s prayers. A college student, retired person, senior citizen or housewife could make 5 templates a day for a minisite and rework the keywords later. A minisite is an HTML file with areas of text added in. The density of repetition of certain key words serves search engine result dynamics, or SEO.

Article writers can earn page view money at Associated Content, Triond and other websites. Sites like Helium encourage a social network approach to writing earnings. Constant-Content orders work from selected writers. No college degree or topic restraints are resent. Writers can speak to the topics they are most qualified to author on or research new material and publish it.

3. Graphics Designer

Along with a logo and banner, most new websites will want avatars or iconic symbols to enhance their visual website brand in color. Devising a background image or set of icons for a website can be a creative outlet for many people just starting out in website illustration. Often a standard size for each application type has the same specifications, which allows for uniform fit in graphic design for websites.

Introduction to graphic design can be self taught. Online courses and college training classes are available now. Many free and basis graphics programs are available for download online. Resizing and recoloring many types of the same images in a class or category can provide some webmasters with choices when laying out their site.

4. Link Building

Link Building and site url promotion is one of the fastest developing careers online. Cementing search engine relevance of a site by planting posts with link backs and track backs all over the Internet takes time and skill. Knowing which highly SEO rated web directories can help a site get boosted to its highest optimized result is a knowledge few can claim. Doing this quickly for best results makes an online professional shine.

5. Site Marketing Guru

Organizing all of the above services from start to finish for a domain name is a business in and of itself. Writing press releases, finding new members, signing up for affiliates and publicizing the website for a given domain name is a full time job just for one name. And many domain name portfolio owners need to get active marketing for multiple domain names they want to promote.
