Parking Domains Sucks - What are the alternatives?

[gawnd]

Not much of a blogger, but I've written a case study on my results from seeking an alternative to parking some of my traffic domains.

The Results? A whopping 453% increase in revenue on less traffic!

Is PPC Dead? A CPA case study for type-in domains

And no, I'm not peddling any product here - this is using tools all of us already have. No ebook, get rich quick crap.

Feedback appreciated - anyone else trying this and seeing similar results?

I've actually had pretty good results by either adding a wordpress blog on a domain and purchasing some content (having content custom written for $10 an article) or using something like Popshops to add a bunch of products to a site.

I plan to follow your findings. Thank you for sharing. And very well written.

Cheers,

Thanks for the feedback guys,

@bill - i finally drank the wordpress kool-aid this past week - been using joomla to date, think wordpress willl cut down on my roll out time for sites quite a bit - once i get the templating figured out. now i just need to let go some control and outsource content - i've done it in the past, but haven't been happy with the quality and usually end up rewriting most of it.

@BidNo - best of luck, would love to hear if you find success.

finally got my first wordpress sites up - pretty painless i must admit.

i'll give it a few weeks and post the earnings results vs. parking. using a mix of cpa and ppc on the pages.
