Two days ago, I parked a newly acquired domain at Sedo, and it surprised me by drawing good traffic and clicks. In its first full day, it had 32 views, 26 clicks, and $13.35 revenue - an average of 51 cents per click.
Today, traffic is even better - 69 views and 55 clicks so far. However, PPC has dropped to 9 cents!
As a math teacher, I know that 2 days isn't a big dataset. Still, it seems odd that it would average 51 cents for 26 clicks (a fairly substantial number), then average only 9 cents for the next group of clicks.
Three questions:
1. Any idea why PPC would drop so much from day to day?
2. If PPC stays low, would you recommend changing the keyword or parking it somewhere else?
3. Do these traffic numbers look at all suspicious? [Very high CTR.] I'm hoping they are real and will continue, as my wife would really like a new minivan. (I bought the domain for $x, so the parking $ is all profit. )
Thanks,
Dave
