What is the purpose of paying loads of money for aged high PR domains on Godaddy or purchasing links for monthly fees when you can easily register expired domain with PR links going to it, good history and high DA PA TR, etc. For instance the domain rareairdesigns.com is available for registration. I literally found it in 5 minutes of work. Its stats are far better than many domains offered for sale or in links section. According to MOZ DA - 27 ; PA - 39 ; PMT - 5.27 Stats from Majestic TF & CF over 10 ; referring domains 124 Sure its not perfect, however, point is there are many far better expired domains out there. I've had a lot of success with registering expired domains and either developing them according to their former content - posting relevant articles to get that relevancy from all the incoming links (this strategy is good for adsense) or simply using them for blog networks. Once you get WP installed and post content, they get indexed and most of the time rank real well, that is of course if you have a found a domain with good amount of PR links and chose and optimized your keywords wisely. So again, what is the purpose in paying a $100 for a PR3 when you can get it for a tenner?
I honestly couldn't agree with you more, expired domains are the way forward there are loads of ways you can scrape lists of expiring domains run them through a few checks to determine which have a backlink profile and if they have any page rank etc, and your done. Great post, sounds like your one of the few marketers on here who know what they're talking about
Hey Alex! Thanks for kind words. I mean, if you have the right tools at your disposal and means to analyze expired domains in bulk you're pretty much set SEO wise.
Well... I agree with you. You are pretty right and that confused me also a few times in the past (people paid hundreds for domains...) I didn't try buying expired domains, but I am pretty sure with the right strategy, you could "win" a lot more!
People still pay $100s for domains since PR still for many is the prime gauging factor. Better for us.
