No time to create a site for every domain we register anymore, so was wondering which PPC services were best for UK domains. Sedo seem to dominate the market. How do they compare to the others such as Namedrive, DomainSponsor, MIVA etc.?

Thank you.
 
OK, contacted Sedo and Namedrive.

Are there any others. I'm looking for the following in particular:

- high payments per click
- geotargeted ads with significant inventory of advertisers for Germany and France as well as UK
- enter/exit pop-up/under (that gets around blockers)
- ability to customise page with specific picture etc.
- ability to customise meta-tags
- page appears in search engine results (seen this with Sedo)
- 'domain for sale' link

If search engines filter out all PPC landing pages, is there any value in setting up a one page site with an article related to each domain name and surrounding them with Adsense ads? Anybody tried that?

Thanks very much.
 
I remember I tried to talk you into Espotting about 3-4 years back Nadeem :p

They where good then and I made a fair few pennies :p But since they sold to the Yanks they gone downhill.. well off the hill TBH. Not worth bothering with anymore.

Personally I just use Namedrive and would recommend them NP. Good geo and stats to go as well.

The best backfill is Google (Namedrive and Sedo use Google) If your going to use Sedo then I suggest you get the Sedo Pro account, better stats and money I believe.

Google dont like their parking feeds indexed by search engines nor popups on their feeds. But yep some do get indexed.

If you know Satish from Espots of old then im sure he can set you up a good deal with www.nixxie.com they use Google, Overture and eBay feeds.
 
Thanks aqua :) Yes, eSpotting were good for a while I never ended up signing-up with them as preferred to develop domains. However, too many now to build fully-fledged sites out of, so need to park them. eSpotting/MIVA UK and few advertisers now, prob. because their minimum bid is 12.75p

Will try Namedrive and compare them to a couple of others I'm investigating inc. Sedo.
