Now what?

Hey,

Yesterday, I parked a domain at NameDrive and did an adwords campaign for it. I got 53 visits and 43 clicks (81% CTR). The only problem is that the PPC with $.05 and my adwords CPC was $.10. When I try reducing my adwords CPC the ad stops showing.

Can anyone recommend some alternatives?

I'm running an experiement with site-targetted ads right now.

It almost make no sense to buy AdWords for a parked page like NameDrive since it is using AdSense. So Google will take away most of the money, give some to Name Drive, then Name Drive wil give a % after their expenses.

I think there is another thread in the domain names discussion. What you are doing is called "keyword arbitrage". Some people claim to have made a lot of money, but in reality it is very tricky to find a high volume, but cheap keyword then serve a related, but high cost keyword ads. It is not imposible, but very hard to do.

That is quite a problem, I guess you have to try another parking program! I am curious about your experiment. If it is possible to find other keywords that are similar enough but payout higher, then I would try that. I am sure you have though. It may just take trial and error, but that costs...
