Is it better tu purchase an old domain although it doesn't have any backlinks (or maybe has some) without any spammy record or just a fresh domain?

The main advantage would be just the age, is it worth it?

If you have $1k, get a very, very good domain. If you have a lot of time, reg fresh and write lots of content. IMO
 
An auction domain definitely makes a huge difference, but..... it is very easy to get penalised by Google. All it needs is reports from your competitors to Google for it to be investigated and then penalised. You then lose the $1000's you have paid for it. Seen it happen a LOT.

In my mind you have to work out if you can make profit quick enough to offset the initial auction cost. If so, you have nothing to lose. Well maybe content, but that can be recovered and reused eventually.

Personally I go for expired or new domains, leave to age, and then build with decent links.
 
Find something like having 10 niche relevent backlinks or more
also choose one that in same niche
auction domains are the best but you need lot of money

I was referring to experied domains principally
 
expired domain with Backlink is better ,but it's expensive.

Alright, so in my case I don't have any parked domain, should I go for a drop one that has minimun ''x'' years?
Thanks!

Why? If expired, all you have to pay is the registration fees.

no one sell their expired domain with DA for free. if you found one it's life finding a diamond in the road.
 
No, I have my own spreadsheet about things that I want to see in a purchase and make my own score. The only one of those I pay attention to is DA because DA 40 + seems to be "this is not complete garbage"

I have never bought one, all the ones I use, which is 100+, I have found myself. You need to think outside the box and not use software to search for them, from my experience.

Somtimes, for a new brand, you want a clean new domain and start from scratch, but if you want to seo, an expired domain is better.
