Here is a good parked site..

I started working on the topsilversites.com, but realized that it is going to take more than just a few hours of work to get something good up and going. I expect to have a good start that I can post by the end of next week.

In the meantime I was looking at my parked domain stats and found a good one to share. I bought tanning-lotions-wholesale.com even though the traffic statistics didn't look all that good. I got it uncontested on the domain aftermarket for $60 and immediately parked it with Sedo. It has been parked for 4 months now and have made a total of $7.54. Now, I know that isn't much, but the interested thing is how the amount has changed.

In the first month the domain made $0.06. I was actually kicking myself for buying it after such a disappointing month. The second month it went to $3.62, this looked a little better. Then in the third month the revenue dropped to $1.93! However, there are still 10 more days in this month and the domain is already up to $2.30. I think we will get up to $3.00 for sure.

Comparing to what I make on my websites that take hours to build and a lot of brain power to create, I prefer to purchase an expired domain and then just let the parking houses do all of the tough work.

Learn how to find domains in the domain aftermarket.

303 Visitors to an $8.20 Domain

Here is my next project. I don’t know where the traffic is coming from for www.topsilversites.com, but it has been parked since December and is still getting a good number of visitors every month.

However, the site has made a whopping $0.06 parked.

This is going to be my next project. Get TopSilverSites.com up and running and monetize the traffic that it receives. For the 3.5 months that it was parked it received 303 visitors. That is pretty good and could be about $150 worth of traffic (if clicks are costing $0.50 for silver related keywords). It should be doing better…
