Minisites VS Parking?

[mistermouse63]

What do you think?

Parking = easy and convenient, but...
Minisites + adscene = more money, right?

Anyone experieced in making and managing minisites? I'm wondering if I should go into this. I heard that making minisites is in general better for generic domains with inherent traffic, while typos should be parked. Opinions?

its adsense, minisites are good if you want to get in SEs. Say you have coolkeyworddomainbutnochanceoftypeins.com then you want to work the content get it into google. If you have keyword.com with a lot of type ins you can park it, or go with a full blown website. 1 page minisites are ok, but if your gonna take the time to make one why not do a lil more and make a website. All your personal choice and the domain name

I always park the new acquired names first, check the traffic and PPC earnings. If the revenue is pathetic, I will set up minisites.
I don't think there will be such a rule as you said.
When it comes to minisites, I personally use wordpress blogging systems. Because they don't have nav bar so I can use adsense code. When you set up one, you can always copy the templates everytime you set up new ones. And updating the sites is as easy as updating a blog.

This sounds like an efficient and interesting idea. I bet you don't write all that stuff in your blogs yourself, right?

No:sorry:
But better write yourself or go with the free articles.

i see:thumb: i guess if you want to manage multiple minisites without having the same content, you have to use free articles

Not if you've got a lot of interests... and free time.

That last one always seems to get me.

Thanks for the tips, I think I'll be setting up some minisites because of pathetic revenue at Sedo.
