Hello, I'm new at buying domains, I've been involved in CPA & SEO for a while now but I'm looking into getting a few domains with traffic so that I can forward that traffic to other related sites.

I've read several guides about getting high DA domains, etc but nothing on how to find domains with actual traffic. Any ideas where to begin?

Thanks

The views expressed on this page by users and staff are their own, not those of NamePros.
a) check this page
expireddomains.net/godaddy-traffic-domains/
(they have a column with traffic. You might have to look around the site, as because of cookies, you might not see exactly the same thing as me)

b) Traffic and ranking drop very quickly after a domain has expired. A better process might be to find high DA domains (or even better: domains with links from high or very high DA) and reactivate the domain for traffic.

c) what current tools do you use to find high DA domains ?

Look to check for a particular domain name value you can see estibot. Also you can see it's appraisal value and can judge a domain name

Submit them to the search engines :-P

Thanks all, yes I'm looking for existing traffic. Right now I'm checking expiredomains for domains with SimilarWeb ranking, is that a reliable source?

"b) Traffic and ranking drop very quickly after a domain has expired. A better process might be to find high DA domains (or even better: domains with links from high or very high DA) and reactivate the domain for traffic."

Is DA > 30 high or very high? Is there a tool to find domains with links from these sites? Or do you do that manually?

a) I am not an expert in similarweb.com. I suppose they base their data on statistics (# of links, alexa rankling, # of social signals, DA/PA ...)
Like any statistical method, the more data you have, the better your prediction is. In other words, similarweb is probably more accurate for big sites than it is for small sites.

May be a better tool is semrush.com
They periodically scan the results of G for tens of millions of keywords known to have traffic. They store the top ~30 results (SERP). For a given domain, they are hence able to find which keyword ranks and what traffic it brings. semrush.com is very well regarded in the seo community and their results are probably more accurate. However, they are pricey and probably you cannot afford them for what you have in mind. Of course, this method will says nothing about non-seo traffic.

Side question:
There are may be 300k expiring domains each day. If you flood similarweb.com with that many requests, you will soon be banned. Do you have a pre-selection process ?

b) By high DA, I rather mean DA 50 to 70 or more
Domains with such DA are not in expired domains of course, but it's possible to find domains having links from such high DA.

The main idea is to pick up high DA domains (say: wikipedia, business week, ny times...), scrap all their pages and check on each page if there are dead links to expired domains. You can do that with utilities such as xenu. I know some companies offer this as a service (I remember Terry Kyle does that, but there are certainly others).

To be honest, I am dubitous on the idea of doing that for CPA monetization. My idea was to resurect or re-create web sites with targeted traffic by using high DA links.. I would then get an authority site with targeted traffic and flip it. I am not yet operational. Just sharing ideas (or dreams).

first and foremost, use common sense when considering prospective names


think.... would somebody actually type-in these terms?

the only way to actually know if a domain gets traffic, is to own it or have it pointed to your server/webpage for testing

so, when/if you're looking at any expired stats or proficiency scores, take that into consideration.

maybe post a domains wanted thread, with a budget that will entice someone to respond.
as is though, most who look for such names aren't willing to pay the cost to acquire them.

Good Luck!

imo....

Direct type-in (common words, misspelled words...) is not the only way to get traffic on an expiring domain.

Residual seo is an other way and it can be somehow predicted and reactivated.

I've read recently on an other situation: a site had pinned a large number of pins on pinterest and it continued to get traffic eventhough the pinterest account was banned. The reason was that many of his pins were searched in pinterest resulting on traffic.

I am not an expert at expiring domains traffic. I suppose there are several other cases and I think the question is interesting.

For me, the idea is not so much to find expiring domains that could be parked, but rather expiring domains that could be reactivated and flipped with modest efforts.

.

Now that browsers and search engines are checking type-in requesrts, these seem to have a declining value. It's extremely annoying when Google uses it mis-spelling to redirect a correctly spelt request.

check his alexa and other metrics you can get all information regarding traffic etc.

"type-in traffic", comes from browsers, not search engines.

and the values of such has maintained and in many cases increased.... depending on the domain name.

That used to be the case, but I think you missed my point. The browser bar seems to be called an omnibox in some browsers, and it mixes direct navigation with search engine submission.
