Parking VS adsense optimized site .. what is better / differences? (newbie question)

[quecoder]

Hello ,
I'm wondering , why should I resort to domain parking and not to make an adsense optimized website ,, with 10 or more articles with some specific keywords and submit it ?
what are the main differences between both and what is the better ?

And what comes after parking ,,,?? promoting the site ?

As long as your articles are *unique*, you will probably do better with AdSense and a developed site. If they aren't unique, they'll likely never rank well, and you may have to resort to buying traffic, a la AdWords and so on. And Google is clamping down on "thin" content sites, so there's no guarantee you'll do well with bought traffic either.

If you want a minimum of work involved, then you might want to stick to parking.

Visitors come to site just because there have been many backlinks lying around the site when it was a proper site....

Visitors come if it is a very brandable or a substitutable word...like bank.com / domains.com / niceblogs.com /intrestingsites.com

Visitors come because they had it in their bookmark....

Visitors come because you socially bookmarked it ...'

Visitors come because you have Yahooo.com and yahoo.com is a multimillion dollar business.....

Visitors come maybe because they want to

If your domain doesn't already have traffic coming to it (from backlinks, misspelling, or something else in its previous life) or if it's not generic enough to warrant type-ins, you're going to have a much harder time driving any traffic to it than you would if there were content on it. I have around a hundred developed domains and maybe 350 parked right now, and I don't expect the parked domains to make anything significant until I get around to developing them (or sell them off)

Have you read up on WhyPark?. They could be a good starting point for you. You have the possibility to add your own content, pictures, adsense or others. The templates are very plain looking but you can edit them as well.
You can also submit your sites to directories with them.

Hi Netmeg

How did you develop those names? Did you add content yourself, or are there sites that offer free content?

Also, could you share a name of one of your developed sites? I'd like to take a look. If you don't want to list the site here you could PM me. If you wish not to, I will understand.

Thanks in advance.

My developed sites are made up of content that I either write myself, or collect myself. I don't mind posting my best known site; it's certainly no secret and I'm rather proud of it (it gets 70k uniques per day in season, all kinds of press, and countless tv and news websites link to it, not to mention the State of Michigan) --> www.michiganfireworks.com. And although I've automated as much as possible, believe me, it's a LOT of work. I have to find the displays, and verify them, and write the descriptions. Plus I've done a ton of SEO work on it for the search engines, and it's taken me a few years, but now it's nicely positioned at #1 for almost every reasonable search term in Google, Yahoo and MSN. Of course, that wonderful traffic does tend to drop off rather sharply on July 5th (ork ork)...

Right now I'm developing my search engine for Halloween related scary stuff - I have 50 domains, one for each state, that begin with "HauntedInWhateverState" For that I'm using a Google Custom Search Engine, and hand-picking the sites in the search engine myself, and labeling them as to what kind of attraction they are. I can do some tricky stuff with the DNS to make one website with 49 subdirectories look like 50 different sites (it helps to own a hosting company).

I have some more projects on the burner for when I get done with Halloween.

These things work for me, and they make pretty good money once they're up, but they are somewhat time consuming to get going, and I don't expect them to pay off immediately. But I'm not going after the quick and dirty - I'm in it for the long haul.

And from what I've seen - free content is worth just about what you pay for it.

well said. let me also add if you got this-sweet-site-forYou2.com . Visitors wont come easily. If you are looking for a pay and park type thing go with sites that have alexa, overture ranking, some backlinks before you even think about buying them.
