Mistyped domain...

    I currently own a mistyping of a URL

    The correct spelling is not a brand name or anything link that so im struggling to decide what to do with it.

    I cant use adsense as the page will have no content - Im looking for some kind of affiliate program (which actually pays) to use on this page, so if anyone accidentally types it, ive actaully got a chance of making some money.

    Whats your opinion?

    it depends on the domain i guess, what is it about? how many uniques does it have?

    Some time ago, one guy setted a site with information on music sharing on a mistyped domain. To be honest, the info looked like something you would find everywhere else, but since he was getting like 12,000 uniques/month, it was enough to make about $5k a month on suscriptions. Not bad ha.

    pretty nice,
    its not really the same...

    for example - its like a mispelling of a past tense verb...

    eg
    waved, walked, fished, gardened.

    But doesnt relate to a subject as closely as all of the above do.

    waved = walking site
    gardened = gardening site etc etc

    thats why im struggling - i dont know uniques yet, i only got it yesterday - i will know shortly

    Just looking for ideas to make money from it !

    If you don't want to develop some sort of content related to the verb, then I'd say an affiliate redirect to the most relevant site you can find is the way to go.

    Park it at Sedo to get an idea of traffic from type-ins.
