Hello,

Could anyone have an experience on this?

Say i had noticed a name that has been have good traffic with these statistics:
Daily visits: 480
Daily revenue: $4.99
Backlinks: 60k

If this name got dropped and its available to register and got to discover after say 6 months, is there any possibility that this name still makes some revenue when am to register it?

Thanks

What i do in this case is install a wordpress landing page and a plugin that reroutes all 404 page traffic to the home page. That way I keep the link juice. I don't recall the name of the plugin off the top of my head but if you want me to look it up let me know.

Thanks,

I guess your meaning this plugin

It is possible and in some area domains even after 2 years still get traffic from plenty places it is mostly when it have rare keywords. But yeah you need care on Gbaned domains etc.

The "link juice" remains as long as the name remains indexed. So, if you pick it up at drop and put a site back up and redirect all (at min) to the main domain (now on your hosting). Better yet - you recreate the links/structure of the previous site and repopulate those pages with your unique (but relevant) content. You will then - keep most of the "link juice".

Google something like "make my own PBN" and you will find lots of (mostly blackhat) but many legit atricles on how to.

But - that traffic is what makes that name valuable, always try to keep.
