TrafficZ – Domain Name Parking Review

TrafficZ – Domain Name Parking Review

May 15, 2010 in Domain Names, Make Money by Olgi Zenullari

Being a domainer myself and having more than 100+ domain names I wanted really to test a good domain name parking company which would offer me a nice return for my domain names. After spending some time researching the domain parking industry I found TrafficZ

I’m even a member on SEDO (biggest marketplace for domain names) but unfortunately their domain name parking program didn’t suit my purposes so I applied on TrafficZ and after speaking with one of their managers I got accepted. I heard it was quite difficult getting accepted however if you have premium domain names and tell them what you are planning to do you won’t have any problems at all and you will get in

Its Not The Domain Name Which Makes a Site Successful!

Its Not The Domain Name Which Makes a Site Successful!

May 14, 2010 in Business, Domain Names by Olgi Zenullari

I’ve been reading lately in different forums many controversial replies to a question like “What domain names would you register if you were back in 1990″. I don’t expect everyone to be a domainer and know the value of a domain name however many (if not all) of the replies were either Google.com , Yahoo.com , Facebook.com or even Twitter.com

In this article I would like to emphasize the fact that successful entrepreneurs build successful sites, despite the domain name used. It is true that a premium domain name which contains your main keyword would only bring positive impact on your rankings however with the actual social media buzz its not a big factor. Have a look at the following domain names and tell me what you see?

Grab Some 2 Letter Domain Names!

Grab Some 2 Letter Domain Names!

April 8, 2009 in Domain Names by Olgi Zenullari

With the current situation of most important tld’s (.com , .net , .org) it is really difficult to find some good, short and easy to remember domains due to the fact that almost all of them have been registered.

This situation leads all of us in exploring new markets where we can possibly get some nice and short domain names for our future projects. First of all you should know the proper resources needed to find some good and catchy short domain names.

There is an interesting list over at NORID, which shows all the possible cctld’s and their official site where you can register domain names. Now most of them wouldn’t let you register 2 letter domain names however I have found a some sites which will let you register them (at the end of the day, its all about the benjamins :P )

  • .GM -  (Register 2 character .GM names)
    At the time I am currently writing this domain names such as ba.gm , im.gm , my.gm and many other
  • .IO – (Register 2 character .IO names)
    At the time I am currently writing this article, domain names such as wu.io , ko.io , du.io and many other
  • .PN – (Register 2 character .PN names)
    The following 2 character domain names are available for registration: ho.pn , li.pn , ma.pn and a lot of other combinations

I registered a 2 character domain name, now what?

They can be developed quickly if you have the needed resources. I am listing below some of the possible and good ways on what to turn your 2 character domain names

1. Image Hosting Site

There will always be a big demand for image hosting sites, you can create a nice looking site and use one of the many free scripts available. a 2 char domain name is much more effective and easy to remember than a 6 or 7 char .com

2. Url Shortner

I believe another very clever idea of using 2 character domain names is a url shortning service available for all, basically your link will look something like mo.pn/24 so I think its worth the time and money

3. Directory

Directories receive a lot of traffic and backlinks at the same time. Opening a directory in a 2 char domain name would probably be a good move. If you lose your interest you can sell it quickly

Conclusion

Two character domain names, in specific .CCTLD’s seem to be available for purchase. The idea is plain simple, you can run anything or even a turnkey on that site and make a profit. The site will generate by itself the money needed for a renewal so its a good investment. At the end of the day, we all want some short and memorable 2 character domain names

What Happens When a Domain Name Expires ?

March 14, 2009 in Domain Names by Olgi Zenullari

Alright fellow readers it is true that I havent been posting here since a long time ago but I have had some offline projects and I have decided to inform you about all my projects and plans so you can duplicate in your own countries and make some profit.

We all know that almost all the good domain names have been registered (.com). I was trying yesterday for more than 2 hours different domain name ideas but all of them were registered and what is really annoying, all of those domain names were parked.

Rule Number One

If you want a domain name and it is parked, do not contact the seller and ask whether is for sale or not. Most probably its for sale but if you show your interest he might play with the price so better get it in a sneaky way.

What happens when a domain expires ?

This is an interesting question which everyone loves to know the answer. When a domain name expires, the owner has a specified period of time (30 days) to renew it. If the domain name is still not registered then it enters the deletion phase where all the sensitive information which is held of the Verisign’s database is deleted. A domain name can be opened to new registrations again after approximately 75 days (not in all the cases though)

Competing Against Bots

After 75 days “you” can register the domain name as it becomes available again. The problem is that you have to compete against 4 really powerful companeis  which ping almost every 5 minutes the verisign’s servers for newly released domain names. It is almost impossible to beat the robots and register the domain name

How to register an expiring domain name?

Depends on the kind of name,  but usually you have to backorder it. If two or more people show their interest on the same domain name,  an auction will be held and the highest bidder will be the new owner of the domain name.

Some of the most well known players in the industry for expired domain names and live auctions are

  • Pool.com
  • SnapNames.com
  • NameJet.com

So friends, if you really want a domain name, patience is the key. Of course you are going to pay at the end of the road some cash but trust me, its worth having good domain names in these days

What is Domain Name Parking ?

January 2, 2009 in Domain Names by Olgi Zenullari

Most of us have a lot of domain names registered. We think of a good idea, we quickly register a domain name which is available and never ever run that site. Personally I lose approximately $200-$300 per year only from expired domain names. Normally there is a way of doing that and it is Domain Parking

What is Domain Parking

Domain Name parking says it all, you park your domain name and you get  paid whenever someone clicks on the advertisements on your domain name. There are many guys out there making a lot of money each month only and only from 5-10 minutes of work. Just parking the domain names. You dont have to write any content or try to get backlinks

Most of the big earners have nice premium domain names parked and they make a living from that. A good and interesting method is parking typo domain names (instead of olgi, ogli or stuff like that).

So you have to take an action and stop losing money every single year. Even if you don’t have a premium domain name, chances are you will be making at least $10 or more per year just to pay for another year.

Which are some of the best companies?

As we know, there must be a middle man which will connect the advertisers (the one showing the ads) and the publishers (the ones parking the domain names). This companies are called Domain Parking Companies and there are several ones which are paying pretty good.

SEDO – Sedo (short form of Sell Domains) is one of the biggest places where you can sell a domain name. If you list your domain name for sale, you will automatically “park” your domain name hence while its still for sale you will receive money for possible clicks on the advertisements on the site (advertisements are added automatically from SEDO based on the category of your domain name)

NameDrive – Another interesting site which lets you park your domain names is NameDrive. You should be an experienced domainer though and own a minimum of 100 domain names to be accepted. Minimum payout is $30 and you get paid via bank wire or paypal. You can also customize the templates which will be shown on your parked page

Parked – Parked.com offers some excellent resources to all their publishers. You should have a minimum of 10 domain names to apply. You can customize your parking page and get the most of your old domain names.

So if your domain names have been messing around with spider nets and dust, its time to park them and make some money of it. Its the easiest thing you could do, just park and go!

Thanks for your attention
