    So I have domain thats 6 years old and has a pr2. It was once used for webhosting. It has had a coming soon page on it for almost a year. It was not optimized for anything special but it does have subpages and subdomains that receive traffic.

    Ive been looking for something to do with it. Thinking about a directory.

    What would you do?

    so you could go for a Niche directory for web hosts

    Choice,

    Nah, its a generic name, and I had considered a niche DIR but was thinking because its a generic domain name, a general directory might be a better use.

    Lol. I had not considered the porn site. What was I thinking. But seriously the link bid for position idea is interesting. How is that working out for you? Is that powered by phpld?

    Thats good to have such an old domain..

    I would do some link building to boost my PR and then build anything.

    go with something u r interested in doing and can match the domain name. That's my advice to you. No point doing something for the sake of $$$ and run out of steam half-way.... ;)

    Well said,

    Building and maintaining pretty much anything technical will keep my attention. Especially if its something fairly new to me like the link bid directory "wwws" mentioned.

    At a minimum it will be well worth the experience since Ive never built a directory from this angle before.

    Its always been for data storage or for clients.

    The domain is just collecting dust now, so I will likely create some type of directory with it.

    kmb40, if you are interested in selling the domain name, please keep me in mind. I am looking for a good hosting domain name...

    I would have made it --hosting niche directory. Only after installing the directory --you should start building links for PR.:D

    Thanks to all that responded.

    I'll probably sit a web host directory on a sub-domain and try the link bidding on the home page.

    That will allow my to trial a few concepts Ive picked up on DP simultaneously.

    Regards and thanks again for the feedback.

    easy, just make it pr6. Then you can just make money from an aged domain with pr
