How to Register Multiple Domain Names
Register multiple domain names for planned websites or future sales. The owner of a domain has the right to keep it for use for a lifetime.

There are some who research new businesses and try to register domains bearing their names with a dot-com suffix before the company gets around to building a website. Some domain names have been sold to corporations for enough money to pay for a house.
