What are the points that need to be considered before buying a pre-owned domain?

[Bala]

I am planning to get a pre-owned domain or a famous name. For example;

When we buy a famous brand franchise it reduces a lot of responsibility such as advertising, branding and much more. In this type of business, we only have to sell the product to the end user.

In the same way, I want to get the pre-owned domain that has already established in the market.

I know this rarely happens, but there is some provider who sells this type of domain at the bigger price.

So here, Can anyone suggest me what are the points that need to be considered before getting a pre-owned domain? Or should I buy a fresh domain?

First of all, I will suggest you to buy the new domain. If you are planning to get pre-owned domain then you should consider some points like domain blacklisted or not, internal & external links, domain authority, hosting location, page loading speed and much more.

Yes, I agree with Ekta,

You can opt for new domain instead of buying the old domain.

Consult with the good hosting provider and take suggestions on this.

[Parag]

Before buying the domain do check domain authority and PR of the domain.

[Shilpa]

Check blacklist status of the domain because some domain gets blacklisted because of sending spam emails. This will hamper your business and also affect the rankings in search engine.

[Trisha]

Opt for .com or .org or .net domain

The first step for starting an online business is to select a domain name. If you are planning to buy already used or pre-owned Domain name, I would suggest you select the domain name for your business after doing proper research. There might be chances that you select a banned or a blacklisted domain name in the market, which might create the problem in some areas or many other unknown legal & technical issues in near future. Here are some of the important factors that you should consider before purchasing a pre-owned domain name.
Age of Domain
Good Domain Authority
Domain Name Should Be Below 67 Characters
Check Copyright Of The Domain
