A few days ago I started reading on domain parking because I have a butt load of them that I am currently not using.

I transfered burnnoticeforums.com to NameDrive and I am getting a 75% CTR on the pages making me about a $1 a day off 40-50 clicks.

This to me seems like a pretty dam good CTR (or maby its that im new) but I wanted to know your advice on getting traffic through the domain.

It has some potential to make an ass load if I send some real traffic through it.

Also, are there any services that pay higher than NameDrive's .04 per click?

Thanks.

CTR is great, although your click price doesn't seem very high. NameDrive may be monitoring your account soon enough if the CTR stays as high as that. As for getting higher $ clicks, try Bodis.com. Also how many views a day does your domain recieve?

Good Luck anyway,
Declan

Its only getting around 30-70 hits a day.... I am thinking of how to increase this currently.

It's against most parking schemes to purposely drive traffic to a parked page, although if you developed into a small content website with Google AdSense ads placed on it, I believe it could do better.

It might take a while to get accepted at bodis, and I believe you need around 100 domains to get accepted at fabulous. My other suggestion would be sedo, but I'm guessing that namedrive will pay more.

See if you can optimize the ads at namedrive for higher revenue/click.

Parked will probably pay the same or slightly more, also with such a high CTR at Namedrive, you have a good chance of getting over 100% CTR over there.

I get a very high CTR over at Namedrive, around 50%, and I've been happy with getting a lot of $1.35 clicks lately - on Friday, I even had a $3.65 click, which is an all time high for a single click for me since I started parking, around the beginning of August.

Unfortunately, I dunno what's happening, but yesterday and today my visits have almost completely dried up - 9 yesterday and only 1 so far today, where I've been getting at least 20-40 per day over a couple hundred names. Maybe it's because of all the Google unrest, I dunno.

I assume that this is an expired domains rather than typein/typo traffic. I have had this happen to me on various expired domains. That is one risk that you have to factor in with expired domains. You have better chances that they will have some residual traffic, but it can just dry up out of no where. That is why a lot of people sell their domains after only owning it for a couple of weeks. They are scared that the traffic will dry up and it is their only chance to sell it, which is true in that particular domains case, but also results in many premature sales with lots of months of missed earnings potential. It is also a reason not to buy a domains based on someone's traffic stats, if they only have stats for a short while.
You probably know a lot of this, but I was just saying that it happens to the best of us. Now you have to keep your fingers crossed, that it still gets some clicks, because you probably missed your chance to sell it. Hopefully it paid for itself in parking earnings already.

I don't own any expired domains; all of 500+ names are/were brand new, registered by me and only me, mostly in the past 60 days, but some go back to 1994. I'm not looking to sell them, I'm not even looking for big returns this year, I'm betting that eventually they will be quite lucrative - either through parking, or I'll develop them, or I'll sell them. Most are in the health care industry, and with all these retiring baby boomers (of which I am one) it's only going to get bigger and bigger in the future. So I'm in it for the long run.

I am only commenting because it was such a drastic drop from last week to yesterday and today. I'm not particularly worried about the longterm viability of my names.

Oh, is that for a group of names? I misread, and thought that it was for one name. That is still a major decrease and very odd. You have checked to make sure that the domains are resolving correctly and that there is stuff on the pages, right? Other than that, I have no idea what could be causing the decrease. Please let us know if you find out.
