1.
a) How much do you earn a month from domains you have developed?
b) What's the primary source of the revenue?
c) How long did it take you to reach this point?

b) How long did it take?
c) What service do you use?

3.

c) 18 months

2.

Looking forward to your answers (and thanks in advance)!

I'd look forward to those answers, too, sp2008, but I wouldn't bet on getting them. And I'm not sure that it's fair to ask, anyway. Perhaps if the questions (actually nine instead of three) were to be aimed at those with similar experience to your own, there might be a result. But presumably that's not what you're looking for.

I prefer not to answer except no. 2 . and its NIL as now a days i dont park and instead develop .

 

[Stian]

I don't park or develop, so I'd be happy to reveal my monthly parking/adsense revenue: around 20 bucks.

 

[MAllie]

Actually, I see now it's eight questions, not nine.

 

[stock_post]

i make very little by parking.. better develop.
-- For me the reason is the names I have do not get much generic traffic I guess.

Most of the names I have are good for development only.

 

[Onward]

Are you the IRS?

 

[gawnd]

Made a conscious decision to diversify my income sources, so right now I'm almost evenly split between Adsense, Affiliate and Parking revenue.

Developing AND SEO link building outpaces parking easily. Developing alone will do very little though.

I started just 3 months ago with about 100 names and make about $500 month.

Revenue has incresed 20% per month so far. Hopefully with enough hard work I can keep the trend going. A friend of mine makes 10K plus per month so I know it's possible to make this happen.

I take a 3-pronged approach to revenue which you can read more about in my blog ...

I think you were supposed to only answer three - not all of them!

 

[rebirth]

I don't know why, but Adsense never worked for me.

 

[tekz999]

Those are not simple questions, and there are 8 questions, not 3.

 

[DomainMagnate]

I have some answers here, never made much on parking, but I'm using adsense and affiliate programs quite a bit

I'm very very new to domaining and I was just wondering about the 100 names. Do you put several paragraphs of information on each page? or just leave them parked?

I'm losing money like crazy, may have to take a loss for the 5th straight year.

:yes:

 

[Raider]

The only money I earn is on my 1099, which is spent for domain renewals.

Are you the IRS?

This question popped into my mind after the first paragraph. :yes:

 

[denny007]

I have no domains and income, Mr. officer, I am here just for the free porn

 

[Raider]

If the economy continues it's decline, I'll be living on domain stamps.
