The Art of Domaining
Posted on 22 March 2007 by DeanHunt
Domaining is the art of buying domain names and selling them or monetizing them for a profit.
The key to domaining is quantity trumps quality in most cases, so getting a large amount of domains for a good price is the trick.
With these sites you are not going to have the time to build large, high quality sites. So most people put up a parked page that has PPC adverts on it. Others put up a basic template with basic content, this would also allow it the chance to rank for low search engine terms.
Another area that you can make huge profits from is buying domains that get typo traffic, so for example utube.com got millions of extra visitors last year, this was due to people looking for the YouTube.com site.
if you intend to eventually sell the domains then we recommend that you put up a basic site, this way you will stay in the search engines and this adds value to the domain.
If you are a domainer and would like to share your domaining tips with us then please leave a comment.
