Other than seling your domains, what do you do with them?

    Yeh, it feels like the global recession has hit our DP's domain BST as well, it seems to be harder to sell any domain nowadays, so I'm looking for other opportunities to make good use of my list of dozens domains.

    Anyone has any good suggestion? Months ago I heard about "renting" away domain names, but I didnt copied the url..:eek:

    I do park them until they get sold. If I have a little content for the related domain, I would not sell them.

    You could always develop them a little...add a wordpress blog and a little unique content and then flip them. They might have a better chance of selling that way...and it really doesn't take that much work.

    If my sites don't sell I'll continue to improve and develop them until things turn around.

    You can use Instant Adsense Machine to generate profit and page ranking on all your domains. Takes about 2-5 minutes to get each site up and running and everything is automated. Never have to touch it again.

    Development is certainly the way to go. Add a bit of content and monetize with adsense, affilliate/cpa links etc. To increase traffic and make it a 'package' you could install a wordpress blog, create free blogger and wordpress blogs, lens. This would make the domain much more attractive. All this can be outsourced of course.

    Good luck,

    Rob

    Park them, develop them - setup a simple Wordpress blog quickly, get some free backlinks, etc.
