Search for your domain name

retired_member2

Raining on your friends parade but if he does have to rely on google adsense for earnings then bit silly really.

Websites go up and down all the time, one minute you can be up top, next minute you can be nowhere, then the month after that you can be back up top again.

Inbound links are the way too go and not from websites that you own also website design.

I used to change my design reasonably all the time and I'm still doing so now after 3 years and I'm still bloody buying domain names that I have no use for but lol

I always target one market for domain names and your friend should know that there are seasonal trends in any marketing especially online.

Summer people go on holiday or want to shop down the high street so sales drop and at the moment we are having a very warm spring which pushes people outdoors.

Winter is the best time for sales and click thrus as too cold to go out and less of a rush too shop online.

Adsense also depends on what search terms are used and how much the advertisers are paying per click thru, this is also determined by seasons.

If you look at supermarkets they always bring their summer stuff out in spring or their easter eggs near enough just after xmas.

Just trends wouldnt worry about adsense.

adsense is only a small proportion of his total income - he makes a generous 5 figure package from his online ventures

I don't think anyone here is talking about creating scaper sites, unique content is essential.

I threw up a simple single page site on Friday, indexed on Saturday and $3.50 on Sunday. It could of course be a one-off.

Also we're not talking about making bucket loads, the title of the thread is how to make a domain earn £1 a week.

So how do you achieve this with minimal effort?

Thanks for this thread chaps, I was thinking about moving away from parking and this spurred me on to actually put some effort in. I've been setting up quite a few basic adsense sites, no unique content to speak of, they don't even look that nice but here is a sample of a few domains, comparing the parking income from march to the adsense income from April:

domain1 = $12.73 / $46.04
domain2 = $9.96 / $28.63
domain3 = $6.26 / $9.98 (half month)
domain4 = $2.62 / $6.75

I'm well happy with these sorts of figures and I now have the bonus that my sites are beginning to appear in google.

Cheers, Grant

Ineed scraper sites are a waste of time nowadays, there are also better suited engines like MSN for mini sites so making £1 per week per domain from a site with good content was the remit which is still very achievable in my opinion/experiments so far.

I'm seeing similar, though not quite as impressive increases with one or two I've changed too.

bye bye parking ?

It's certainly opened my eyes to how much money I've potentially lost by taking the easy option and parking nearly everything!

Agreed!

I'm currently developing a large number of my domains after a little experiment showed how profitable it can be compared to parking.

As an example, I have one domain which in the previous 6 months before I developed it made $1.96

I now have a small site on it and it brings in £500 a month.

The key to this is picking the domains that are exact matches to keyword phases that are searched for.

Within days you will be number one in MSN. Yahoo & Google will be close behind after maybe a few months and a few links from other sites.
