no logic for newbie like me...

I'm trying to catch up parking issues :
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/ppc-cpc-cpm-programs/64224-no-logic-for-newbie-like-me.html

domain could.biz is parked at sedo. They claim that it's on the 16th place for daily hits with more than 2400 daily clicks (how could it get so many clicks is also not clear to me :<). Also domen is for sale for an asking price of 600 EUR.

Now as I understood so far this domain has about 70 000 clicks monthly and that is more than 600 EUR if average revenue for click is around 0.04 US$.

So it has revenue for more than 600 EUR per month.

Since sedo didn't make mistake where did I go wrong : number of clicks, asking price, average revenue for click or everything ?

Thanks for help

The 2400 per day is probably not genuine traffic. Before paying 1 cent for this domain you should obtain accurate traffic figures and find out where the traffic comes from.

OK,

where/how can I do that ?

I'm not sure exactly with Sedo-parked domains but I'm sure someone else will know.

Seems that noone is willing to help on this matter.

If the domain is really "could.biz", I doubt that 2400 unique visitors per day is genuine traffic.

You can get a better idea about traffic if the seller can:

- provide a link to realtime domain stats; this would show where the visitors are from, what search words they used to find the site via search engines, what inbound links they followed, etc.

... or

- set the domain's nameservers to yours; you then host the domain and examine the domain stats yourself (cpanel has 2 kinds of stat monitors installed by default)

OK, so basicly sedo didn't provide genuine traffic for that domen. That's what both of you are saying, right ?

They are saying that it is doubtful the traffic is genuine, and SEDO isn't very good for reporting 100% accurate stats because it can be cheated it too easily.

I bet they're running a clickbot to inflate their hit count. Although Sedo declares strict policy against that, I don't think they really enforce it.
Rule of thumb? If it looks too good to be true, it probably isn't.
