What's more important when parking a name?

[JeffPratt]

For example I use dropday.

You have Visits a day, Google PR, Google Links, Linked Sites, Key Search per month, CPC


What should I really look at when purchasing a name to park?

What is the most important out of all these?

Get a domain that is worth parking!
Big difference between y9hn45z.com and
bigdumptrucks.com

So check searches for the domain first.

Traffic is the most important thing for parked domains. Without traffic you won't get any clicks. Which is why quality backlinks are important factor.

A likely reason for no traffic is because the word "flats" is rarely if ever used in Hawaii and Florida. They are called "apartments" or rentals or condos or homes, etc.

Also. Newly registered domains generally get zero traffic.

Florida flats wants fishing keywords.

My domains live 1 month. How much need pass time that will be highest or middle traffic?

A newly registered domain is unlikely to get type-in traffic. And if the domain is not developed, you will not get visits, only bot traffic.

Registering fresh domains in 2012 and hoping to make money on PPC is bound to fail but many are trying...

If the domain has been developed before it dropped you might get residual traffic. But if the domain is not redeveloped, the name will gradually be deindexed and the traffic will decrease.
Buying domains with PR/backlinks is an option for development, for parking it depends. And you are not alone in this game...

So is it possible to make $30 plus a name?

 

[Name Trader]

Probably zero if they are newly registered and never registered before (which might provide some residual traffic from it's last registration). We cannot say without seeing the domains. Domains can make from $0 to $xx,xxx a month from parking. Unfortunately it's the 80/20 rule. 80% of the domains make zero. And any domain in the 20% block will likely get dropped if it doesn't make it's regfee back (<$1/month). Of course there are always exceptions to the general rules.

stub
one of my domains which serve normal traffic is the name from category Travel agents. travelcountryclub.com

 

[Name Trader]

This domain is one month old. It has zero results for the phrase in Google Adwords. I don't think you are going to make any money with this domain.

Do you know guys if domains with existing traffic from backlincks, just parked, do lose it after a while? EG: what to expect from domains with 50-100 low quality backlinks?

Only CTR Matters

Only thing Matters is CTR
How Likely user is going to click on the ADS matters the most.

If you have 100 visitors a day with no clicks there is no point in parking. Unless you are monetizing with zero click model.

Domain even with 10-20 Visitors per day with CTR of 20 to 40 % is much better than domain having lots of visitors but no click.

I have Found domains related to Shopping gets a good click Rate.

There is some truth behind this statement but it's not completely accurate.

While people look at a domain like y9hn45z.com and say I won't touch it; there actually may be a lot of value behind it.

I've got domains that have numbers,dashes,etc, in them and they make me a great deal of money. It's always best to do your research on any domain you buy as it's an investment and you want to make sure you can make money with it.

I would say 20% is a fair number. Im not saying you wont have a higher CTR but this is just a number you can rely on.

They can lose traffic but on the flip side they can maintain traffic for a very long time. I've experienced both.

smurge: did you have luck with some obscure dash/number-filled domains that were freshly registered or you only had tried expired/dropped ones?

I have some freshly registered ones that do well. For example, Like a product will come out and the product owner buys the wrong domain I'll purchase the proper one or obscure one.

Mainly though I focus on expired or deleted domains.

 

[PaulSK]

Wow, kudos to those newly registered ones!

Those are some .com TLD ones?
