bondagegirls.net ~$360/month parking rev.

back online on ICQ.

The domain did $13.50 yesterday..

Do you have more then 5 days of stats?

need more stats...where is this traffic coming from

Sedo doesn't like domains with "old" traffic, because those don't generate much revenue. They will probably lower your payouts within weeks or months and then turn you off completely, so 15 months is way too much.

still looking for offers. yesterdays rev screen cap here

Seems to me this domain has a lot higher potential as an developed site especially in the BDSM /bondage scene.. Maybe some one out there is thinking beyond parking?

you better explain what the traffic source is, because this is definitely NOT type-in traffic. domain is way overpriced imho.

I agree on that, the domain name is cool, can be used for a paysite, etc.

Hmmm a paysite on an average .net isnt really ideal. Its good amounts of traffic which should give some opportunities for monetisation till it dies off though.

Yeah, thats why thehun.net is such an average domain, too...mostly people don't even know its a .com, too.

Well thats a misunderstanding though.

Thehun.net IS an average domain, when judged upon the value of the domainname itself...say: theturtle.net or thehens.net came up for sale, regfee?

What makes it worth millions or whatever is the traffic it gets and all the other stuff related to running a site that succesfully on the domain for so long. Had it been just a domain, with no history, no traffic etc, it´d struggle to get someone to pay the regfee.

On a different level of course, same thing with this one - its got value, but it isnt in the name - its in the history and the traffic.

The value is in the name, you can remember it easily. Most paysite domains have stupid names and therefore zero return traffic. I like bondagegirls, very easy to remember, wouldn't pay $5400 for it though.

Ignoring the questions do not make them go away..



ya, except that you will be giving all that return traffic to it's .com sister lol

You just have to make it clear its .net in the design. But I won't argue over the domain anymore, everyone can make his own opinion based on his experiences.

Naughty just got back here. The domain was a developed TGP site so the traffic is coming form a number of back links still around the internet. I acquired the domain in the last 2 months in a private sale and parked it with BDSM ads. It's pulling an incredible click through rate and traffic has been consistent. Developed it WOULD grow no questions about it.

Standing offer from a member of this forum is $3600 I am still holding out because to be honest I don"t care if I don't sell it. The only reason I posted it is because I wanted to free up some cash for a big purchase. That has since been finaced and IF I see any significant drop in rev/traffic or both on this one I will simply develope back into a site of some kind.. As others have said this has history/traffic/ and a name of some value..

My Bin is still $5400 but I will consider offers above my current of $3600

Thanks,

If you have any questions about what the site was check out archive.org it has almost a weekly history going back to 2002.

the problem with an expired link list site like this is just what people are asking....

they want to know WHERE the traffic is coming from...

from a buyers point of view the reasons for this are extremely simple and just one reason is for example:

I have over 240 sites.. i link to a ton of link lists..

because of the number of sites i have it is difficult to keep track of what sites are online still and who is linking back.. so i may sometimes be sending traffic to offline sites for a little while...

But i make it a point to check everything at least every 3-4 months....

if someone like me is linking a network of 240 sites to a domain that has went offline and discovers it, the traffic to that site will be ended immediately....

on a similar note, the other issue is it may just be 1-3 sites that send the majority of the traffic to that domain.. same scenario.. it those top sites remove their links, that domain will plummet..

now if the traffic comes from 1,000's of sources, the traffic may take many months, if not years to diminish as some webmasters are not savvy enough to check constantly, or at all lol...

likewise, if the traffic is mostly from SE's (google, etc), and the domain is just parked on sedo.. all of that traffic will peter out within a month or two, and any PR the site has will most likely be gone within 3 months or less..

people just need to know they are not putting all of their eggs in one high risk basket...

which i, and most others here, pretty much think that is the case with this domain... hence the request for traffic sources...

i could go on, but i think i have already given away too much information for free.. lol

I should also add that it could even be long term paid traffic (traffic that will expire tomorrow for all we know..)

And then there are click fraud issues too.. Which I am not insinuating you do nor accusing you of, but not being a really active member around her, jsut simply having the traffic sources shown clears most of those concerns up anyway

as it stands, personally, i would do over $200-350 without the traffic source info..

(I've bought about 150 sites from other people over the past 10 years.. and of those almost 90 in the past month lol ... and i have made mistakes.. and the times i regret most is when I based the purchase factor on sedo revenue.. lol.. not kidding.... and i made that mistake numerous times.. not saying all sedo purchases i have made were bad, just saying basing it on sedo revenue alone was always a mistake)
