Building a website is just the first step. Search engine optimization (SEO) will get your site listed in Google and other search engines. That's a good start, but marketing and promotion will bring in even more traffic.
If you own domains that you are not using you can park them and earn money. These parked domains can even earn more than fully developed domains. Sounds simple, right? It can be, but it may be hard to know how to start. I spend a lot of time helping people earn money from domain parking at parkquick.com. This site will be more free-form. I'll add stuff here that's too brief or too ephemeral to add to ParkQuick.
I'm coming at this from a different angle. I'm a domainer first. I'm learning the rest of it. I'll share a lot of what I learn - but who shares everything?

Google has not updated their pagerank numbers since April. This weekend several people reported movement in their pagerank numbers, while others reported missing info in their Webmaster Tools account at Google. We’ve known for some time that the pagerank numbers that Google shares are old, stale information. The numbers that Google uses internally are likely much more up-to-date.
Jack Humphrey asked whether people should care about pagerank, then he answers his own question by stating that “advertisers care.” He goes on to state that “I won’t start an aggressive advertising campaign with this site until I have a PR 5+ (again!). Why? Because whether we think PR is important or not, advertisers DO. They won’t advertise on anything less than a PR 5 site because they think that anything less doesn’t get any traffic.”
