So I recently picked up some more names, the idea behind these mainly traffic/keyword based domains. Each of these names has an exact keyword match of 2000> based on my research but that's as far as I got.

I know that I could park them, but I would rather cut out the middleman and monetize them myself. Any tips?
One of these names has a very high CPC but only if the clicks come from India? Almost $100 cpc for clicks that come from India, again I am very new to this so I may have jumped the gun but I figure its a small price to pay I only got 5 names anyway just to try this out.

The names are

freehockeystreams.com

rentalcarsspain.com

companiestax.com

plantswater.com

demoaccountforex.com

@redemo Getting affiliates sales from organic traffic is super hard. Most of the keywords that lead to sales are occupied by major websites. There are keywords that exist but its major challenge. Its probably easier to just put your money in doge coin and wait for Elon to say something stupid.

I had several affiliate site before that made money, I was under the mercy of a major search engine that decides to wreck my traffic every few months. I don't want to discourage anyone since I know people make it but its not easy.

"Getting affiliates sales from organic traffic is super hard." Your argument may be valid mate but it's subjective in its current form. Can you quantify your argument?

"Most of the keywords that lead to sales are occupied by major websites." Again it's a subjective argument mate. Give you an example right off the bat. U.S.A. right now. I'm going to google usa and look on the news page for events happening soon https://www.google.com/search?q=usa&source=lnms&tbm=nws. From page one team U.S.A in Tokyo and airlines re-opening are interesting. You register teamusanews.org or teamusanews.net and start developing a news website. Ads are anything with the American flag. There's search volume and very few dedicated competitors. Same for airlines re opening. You could register fromtheairlines.com and develop a website with news about each airline when it's reopening and what the restrictions are. Ads are flights, airport parking and airport hotels.
"There are keywords that exist but its major challenge." Again subjective.
"Its probably easier to just put your money in doge coin and wait for Elon to say something stupid." Elon suffers Asperger's Syndrome. Give the guy a break. He's also a genius. I love his interviews.
"I had several affiliate site before that made money" What changed?
"I was under the mercy of a major search engine that decides to wreck my traffic every few months." If you mean Google there are many other sources of search traffic. Change search engine or dance with the devil.
"I don't want to discourage anyone since I know people make it but its not easy." When MANY people make it but MOST don't the generally held view among the MANY is the one you hear most often repeated.
Hard is never impossible mate. Good conversation. Cheers.

I had one site make 50 dollars over three years with adsense. Depending on the niche adsense is kind of a waste of time.

@Jason Baudendistel "I had one site make 50 dollars over three years with adsense. Depending on the niche adsense is kind of a waste of time" Was that domain name worth keeping? $ 50 over three years would cover your .com re registration fees.

It's a basketball site so figure at this point might as well hang onto it. Probably have it ranking for some high paying sports keywords soon.
