    Hi I would like to know if typo domains make much money if parked?

    If a website gets 4million hits a month and I have a decent typo what sort of money could I make?

    Thanks

    Of course they get money, if they receive hits, of course. How much depends on the traffic the get and the niche the site is about.

    I have typos that receive 1000 uniques per day and earn $5 and then other that receive 15 uniques per day and earn $20 parked.

    It all depends on the niche.

    Yes they make money, that is why you see lawsuits over them.

    How much could you make? Here is a formula
    N = number of domains
    K = arbitrarily high number

    Lowest: -100,000 x N
    Highest N x K

    why? you can lose 100k per domain under ACPA (not counting legal fees). You could make any amount from them.... it's pretty wide open.

    I never knew people actually do that, buy domains like that. I guess

    gogle.com is a hit.

    like goggle and google? if i used goggle.com to sell goggles and got all google's traffic i would be fine. if i decided to create a search engine on the page.... might violate trademark. trademarks have specific uses, like apple =computers. if i somehow got apple.com and sold apples... it would be fine. of course this is a generalization, im not a lawyer, go talk to one if you really need solid legal advice.

    Surely you can make some money, but it depend on what country the traffic come from! US/CA/UK/AU are the best ones!

    As long as you receive hits and traffic then money can be made. Traffic to the domain is the most important factor.
