    Hiya guys

    In a tricky spot. Client didnt pay for his sites..to be honest its not worth the bother of legal action.

    I now have his domains. - Im going to try and sell the site design to another company, but what to do with the domains? stick some google adsense there? - can I sell the domains?

    Any ideas/ suggestions / advice most welcome!

    You could always sell the domains if the domains are decent. If not, make a few informative articles and stick some Google Adsense on there and leave it.

    Depends how high profile the company is, if you wanted to be really cheeky you could always contact their competitors and sell them the domains! If not, adsense is possibly the way to go.

    Dont do what I did and put "Your seeing these ads because the client didnt pay" in big letters on the front page! Tends to get you in more trouble!

    Either Sell it for a decent price or use it yourself. Not much choices left.

    I was sooo tempted to do this!

    I may just install wordpress and set up a blog on the theme, stick a bit of adsense in there and see whats happens :)

    Thanks chaps!

    Nasty clients

    Just use them to make money and be happy, stick adsense on them and voila.
