Domaining, Internet Marketing & SEO - DomainerSEO RSS

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?

If, as suggested, Google really have got direct navigation through search down to a fine art then you can pretty much wave goodbye to the long tail that is currently “monetization in the domain channel”. I mean, just review the past 18months. Arbitrage, gone. MFA mini sites, gone. SEO traffic, gone. Direct navigation, going.

*Epilogue* What would I do? Sell all your domains, buy one or two good ones (or more if you have time and resources in which to develop them) and build them into unique and compelling web sites. After all, thats what Google have been telling you to do for some time now.
