So you've got this great expired domain you found, now what?
Well, the easiest thing you can do is redirect it to your existing site. This
will bring you more visitors and the PR will be passed on to the domain. Some
prefer to park the domains at SEDO and receive
PPC money while it's on the market waiting to be sold.
However, our favorite way to monetize these domains is to put up an affiliate
site. There are literally hundreds of different reseller opportunities for any
domain traffic you might have, especially adult. You can readily download professional
website templates for free. AdesDesign
has some really clean, free templates, including one that is built completely
from style sheets (CSS), so you can customize the look of the site through a
text file! It makes for very quick work. Also check out this Php free
directory script ;you can set up a Dmoz style directory with admin controls,
just upload it and its done. Similarly, you can modify the look through CSS
and 1 logo image.
Domains
with sites attached to them sell for a lot more money, even if it is a free
template. Take a look on Ebay and see what's selling and
getting bids. You'll notice that even crummy sites slapped together with Frontpage
manage to get bids, without any traffic to them! You can one-up these
sellers easily with a nice template and a good domain that receives traffic,
has PR and is regularly getting spidered. Go even further by doing some basic
SEO to the site and exchanging a few new links to enhance the PR and overall
value of the site. Point is, it's far easier to sell a "site" than
just a domain name.
Here's a great template we have to run a classified ads site: Php/MySql classifieds,
For $49, you get all the code you need to set up a professional classifieds
site with your new domain. This script has many features, including full admin
controls, price setting, picture uploading, etc. These tend to be good sellers
on auction sites. The beauty of using this method is that the scripts are completely
generic and customizable to any business category. Any expired domain could
be turned into a very professional looking classifieds site with minimal work. If you're interested in purchasing this template email us at sales@recycled-traffic.com
Here's our personal list of some nicely converting affiliate programs we've
had success with:
Adult:
Nastydollars (produces
the infamous "Milf Hunter" among others)
Click Cash (iFriends
referral program)
Payserve - (European content
and liveshows)
CDgirls- (some of the best
adult content on the web, tons of free material for your site)
Wild West Domains
(Go-Daddy domain and hosting reseller sites)
Sedo (PPC domain parking)
Also, if you're looking to build a list of email marketing prospects, Nitrolistbuilder
offers fresh email opt-in co-registration leads for 1 penny each. Minimum order
is 100,000 or 25,000 per month for $280. Most of their email lists consist of
"opportunity seekers", but they can custom build for an additional
fee, or CoOp a list for you if there is additional interest in purchasing leads
for that industry. This is a very inexpensive way to instantly gain a massive
list of prospects for your email marketing campaigns.
