Question: Does Patience = Profits ???

[has2hands]

Hello Everyone,

I am looking for answers based upon your experience, since mine is limited and immediate.

Is a parked domain more profitable, if parked with the same company, for an extended period of time? Will a domain earn more parked for 6 months vs. 6 weeks vs. 6 days? and how about 6 years?

What is the long term profitability for longterm parking with the same company?

Sometimes I think I am a real whore and move around trying to find higher returns. Impatience plays a part. But once I find the right combo, I just want to put things on autopilot and move to the next name.

So, once you get dialed in...fully optimized with keywords, meta tags, articles, etc.........should you.....just let the indexing take over and......

Stay with the same parking company?

Looking for some opinions.

Thanks,
Paul

I haven't been around long enough to give a good "in my experience" answer. However I can see the trend why you might start to make more (or less) if you stay with one parking company long term.

Think about it from how the advertiser approaches the situation. They spend x amount of dollars for a given keyword. Then they analyze how much they made profit from that investment. If they did well they invest more in that keyword, if not the lean their budget in another direction. By providing traffic of consitent quality (either good or bad) in the long term the advertiser can guauge the quality of the traffic and your ppc will either go up or down.

By constantly changing things around you cripple the advertisers ability to accurately guage the quality of your traffic. If your traffic is poor you may do better by moving names around often. (so they can't see just how bad it is) If your traffic is good I expect it will surely go up in value by keeping the names in one place.

There is a different factor working against that upward trend. The longer you leave a name at one place the more likely they are to skim a few cents here and there. If they know you are willing to switch nameservers at the drop of a hat they may pay you at a higher percentage to keep from losing you. If you get lulled into leaving your names there and never check on them you might find yourself to be a good candidate for a pay rate reduction.

Hello,

Thanks blaknite for your comments.

I was wondering if any reps from parking companies can add any comments? Any reps out there care to comment?

Thanks,
Paul
