800,000 Views in the last 12 hours - How to monetize

[benjimon]

lots of traffic

Ok i messed up attempting to sell a domain name on ebay, it's hit the news, digg, dugg and a barrel load of other places.

Should I profit from this? How would I best do this?

Thanks

WWW.DRLNK.COM

Didnt you try to sell this domain as:

DRlNK.COM

I believe you had to pull the auction (Or ebay did?) after a number of complaints.

So if this is your name and you are the one who is trying to sell under the disguise drink.com and getting tons of traffic you want us to help you monetize off that?......

I don't think you are going to get the support you're looking for here.

Why did you try to trick everyone?

What you tried to do with drlnk.com was in bad taste... :lol:

 

[lpxxfaintxx]

Lol!

 

[benjimon]

Hey, look.

I've learnt the hard way not what to do.

I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction.

I'm sure you all had to start somewhere.

 

[BeZazz]

I'm sure you all had to start somewhere.

im still trying to start lol
but i would never do what you did, i also hope no one helps you with this you shouldnt get to profit from it IMO

800,000 Views in the last 12 hours, yeah right, about as believable as the ebay auction.

 

[ofclean]

Yeah, drudge doesn't even generate that for his links.

I am not sure what you are asking, if you want to make money, nobody is going to stop you, why ask? Do you want to generate more traffic?

No, I guess not..

Think I should start to build a better reputation for myself before I ask for any more help.

It has 37 diggs - how does it possibly receive 800,000 visitors?

 

[Dan]

As in almost every Digg articles comments, the number of diggs isn't equal to the number of hits. Not everyone diggs every story they click. It's also been linked to from here a couple of times and I'm sure a bunch of other places have pointed it out, too.

The traffic is going to end really fast and if you haven't already made money from it, you're probably not going to. Most people on Digg know what an ad looks like and don't click it, anyways.
