This information comes from a lesson being taught about selling Domains. So in fairness you can choose if it is right for you. Domain flipping is simply the process of buying domain names at a low price and selling it later at a higher price after increasing its value over a period of  time. There are many ways you can increase its value. You need to make it by known by so many people, the more traffic your domain name has the more important it will become.

To make good money from domain flipping, it must be short and keyword related, that is a name that is relevant, also it must be short, unique and memorable, so that people will want to buy it since their visitors can always come back to it easily, if it is short and memorable it cannot be forgotten easily.

To make money from flipping domains, first you should get registrar account. Go Daddy is very Popular because they are easy, cheap, and reliable. But there are so many others, such as Namecheap, etc, After buying your domain name you should now drive traffic to it, you can buy a .com for about 10 dollars and then drive traffic to it, then the next day you can list it for sale, most times if you have a good domain, you will be able to sell if for a minimum of $100 after 24 hours of listing it.

Something else you may be interested in is Domain parking. This is simply a process of monetizing your domain name with advertisements, there are so many parking sites, some of them can only accept you if you have a certain number of names.

All you need do is buy a good domain name that is related to the niche you are targeting and then re-direct it to the parking company name server. After this you can now add your advertisements to your domain name.

Some parking companies are better than others because you can use them to park your domain name and it will look like a website.

After buying these names, you may want to flip or park them, you will need to increase the value so it can sell well. You can create blogs and include your domain names in your content, by referring your visitors to them for more information.

 Also you will be requested to provide some keywords when parking them or use the default keywords, do a research on high paying keywords and use them. If you really want to make good money this business you should have more than 20 parked domain names.To get more visits you can use email marketing, auto responders and search engine submissions.
