Some are expired domains of developed sites and hastraffic, backlinks and pagerank. Ok, pagerank alone doesn't have value for Google but still there are tonsof people buying backlinks valuing them from pagerank :) There are 3 categories of drops catching 1.expired domains to get flipped - these domains might have just some value when sold to others. Moneyinvested might not get back if You don't get buyer. 2. expired domains with traffic - domains that has trafficfrom backlinks -> their traffic decrease by time, but You can get some profit by parking them or developMFA site or make new serious project. 3. expired domains with pagerank - these domains has pagerankfrom DOFOLLOW backlinks. There are marketplaces where You can sell backlinks. Google doesn't nullpagerank if You create new similar content as backlinks that have generated pagerank usually stays asthey are. Catching domains for flipping doesn't make much profit and You can't be sure if there would beany. I suggest You to buy domains with pagerank or traffic, as you can count how much minimal profit Youcan get and You know if it's enough to pay domain cost and make $ above cost. Where to get gooddomain names? Plenty of main domain registrars have aftermarket for such domains. You can also buydomains that have expired for regfee only but they barely have some value. I mostly use
aftermarket as there are domains with hundreds of visitors/day or PR3-PR5 easy to get won in auction.Really it's worth to buy domains in auction as they are sold before they are trully marked as expired soYou keep site sequeantly running and keep Pagerank. But how to find really good names? I use these twotools as they are probably best:
- huge list of expiring domains at
where You can set filters and line-up on different criteria (traffic, overture, etc.). The alsoshow if it suppose to be real pagerank or spoofed (fake). Another cool tool is:
-> You can line-up by alexa rank or pagerank. These domainsare picked from all in godaddy listing and there are some awesome domains with high PR. Remember,PR3-PR5 domains are mostly spoofed by redirect so check backlinks Any domain with PR3-5 should belisted here (if this tool doesn't show any result or result is different domain then searched, it means PR isprobably spoofed):http://www.google.com -> info:domain.comShould have from 5-100 dofollow links inthis search (this tool doesn't work perfectly and number of search results doesn't show all dofollow linksindexed). PR2-PR3 should have about 5-20 results, PR4-PR5 should have atleast 20-50.
Godaddy shows estimated monthlytraffic and You also have alexa rank to know if it's true and longterm traffic.
Ok. I've picked domains,domains have bids, what now? What domains are worth to invest?Traffic domains:
If You gottraffic (by godaddy estimates) 100 UIPs / day, then You can 1. Park domain -> You will lose almost allsearch engine traffic (might be up to 50% of annual traffic). But You have high CTR (up to 20-30% if Youpick right keywords matching previous domain content). 2. Build small blog or site with few content andadsense or adbrite ads and wait for clicks. To estimate maximum BID that can bring atleast investedmoney + some profit You need to count. You got domain about religion, average religion PPC at
is 50-60 cents, and You got 500UIPs stimated by godaddy. Lest say, You lose 30% of trafficfrom search engines so You have 350UIPs. 350 UIPs / 30 days = 12 UIPs/day. If You got 5-20% CTR onaverage You've got 0,6-2,4 clicks / day and that is 0,3-1,2$ a day. Each month You got 10-20% decreasein traffic. So first month You got 350UIPs, next is lets say 300, 270, 230 etc..... So in first 12 months,average traffic is around 50% of first month traffic. So that's maybe 170UIPs on average, let's say minimal5% CTR and 0,5$ PPC = 4-5$ a month = 50-60$ a year. That is absolute minimum but if You want to besure, don't spend more then 40$ on such domain. It's just safe path as You probably have CTR around10%. Various domains works better with various parking companies -> this si some small comparison:
