What do you guys do with your unused domains?

    Hey all.

    I was wondering, all you guys out there who have spare domains that you do not really use but are not anxious to sell. What do you do with them? Do they currently just link to nothing? Do you put up some generic page full of ads collecting the occasional change when someone stumbles accross it randomly? Do you have it posted for sale somewhere with an unreasonably high price tag just in case the right buyer comes along one day? What do you do with them?

    If you have a lot you can try parked.com they offer you commission on the ads they display.

    Set up an auto-updating wordpress blog or something and link them to my actual sites, takes around 5 mins to do each one and can be outsourced easily.

    Use unused domain name to set up an automated WordPress blog through which you can start earning nominal revenue.

    Park 'em. I've rented out a few premium ones, but most of them are just parked.

    Yes park them, I uses Sedo.com but my earnigs are small. But it's better than earning nothing :)

    Or you can make mini sites with them, their pretty easy to make ,then drive traffic to them :)
