Today I am going to give you a few more tips on how to pick domain names for domain parking. But first I want to dispel a few doubts about the technique of putting a “www” before the domain name and without the “.” (for example registering wwwauctionads.com). The process will only work if the underlying site is popular and has lots of visits (check the Alexa ranking of the site). In my example auctionads.com has a ranking of 2632, which would be a good rank for this technique. Also, when using this system, it is of no use to register “www.wwwauctionads.org”, since the original site is a “.com”.
Another tip to pick up good domain names is to pay close attention to what is happening in the country where you live with sites that have a country ending, like .de, .at, .br, .es. Here is what I mean. I was searching Alexa ranking for “.at” sites (.at is for Austria), and I registered a few of the top “.at” sites as “.com” and they have done really well for me. This works especially well because the “.com” is where your browser will take you by default if you just type in a name on the browser. Like if you type “adbux” on your browser you probably wanted to go to adbux.org, but your browser will take you to the parked page of adbux.com. Which is actually kind of funny since I just noticed that adbux.com is a parked domain on NameDrive (I recognize the template). This is even better since all things being equal, the “.com” domain name is more valuable that any other one.
To end this post I would just like to post a screen shot of two parked domains I have on NameDrive, that yesterday on 4 clicks gave me about $10, and one of the clicks was worth more than $4. Since I get about 150 to 200 clicks a day wouldn´t it be nice if they were all worth this much
I would also like to remind everyone of the challenge I put out to try out domain testing for free. I was expecting to shell out $1000 for this exercise but I have only had two takers so far.
