OK - I've got a few domains laying around due the the 10,000 ideas which formulate in my head every 30 secs and was wondering what the best way to monetize them is?

I've got a few on Sedo - but I'm not that impressed (but maybe I have bad domains)

Any ideas?

If they don't have any type-in traffic not much you can do beyond reselling them (if keeping them undeveloped)

Try Namedrive - works fine for me .

They may not be good domains.

Parking them at Sedo is still beneficial if they dont receive traffic. People can search the sedo database on keywords which would result in your domains appearing if they fit the persons desirable niche.

However, if you truly plan on developing them in time, dont park at Sedo. Not worth it.

Also, you dont have to park them.

Just have accurate contact info on your domains WHOIS, and point them to nothingness.

People will email you if they are interested, and your domains are 'good' enough.

If they do get type in traffic and you are looking to make PPC revenue then Sedo and Domain Sponsor are two of the better programs.

Fabulous for gambling domains.. you can make $10 a click or more, no joke (if approved, they're serious about what gambling related domains they choose)

Thanks - I'll check out a few options.

How do you tell if you have type in domains?

How do you tell if you have type in domains?

Other than parking them to see how much type in traffic they get, you can usually estimate it just based on how common the keywords are or how many searches they have using the Oveture tool: http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion/

For example your domain aguawebs.com likely gets no natural type in traffic, whereas webdesign.com would get quite a bit from people just typing it into their address bar.

I would suggest putting my youtube/adsense script on the domains since it is automatic and you can just add in your google adsense code and then leave it there. this is a domain that i have that i wasnt using and i just put the script up and left it. www.DigitalTradeUnion.com

If you have more than 1 domain, we can work out a bulk cost for scripts on all your domains.
