dead domains - GoFuckYourself.com

Doesn't it just suck that most of the good domains are out there just sitting as a 404 or on some parked service. I am guilty of doing it myself but sometimes when I'm researching name it just amazes me that people will just let some damn good names just sit there.

The sad part is if you send them an e-mail trying to buy them, of course then it's worth 10 grand because you asked them.

any examples?

No not really that I want to give out, as I'd like to pick up a few of the names. But lets say I have two pretty decent names based on some good keywords, both start with the same keyword. So I would love to hit other niches with that same first keyword and set up a branded group of sites.

It's just sad to see some of the names just sitting there being wasted.

i used to do that, until I realized how easy it was to set up a fake tgp real quick

so I just throw a crappy tgp up there and maybe catch a little traffic

I'm guilty of it too. There's just not enough hours in the day. I know I could throw something up quick but I wish I had time to develop them correctly.

reminds me to check sedo... have a few hundred domains parked there and it always amazes me how mutch cash they bring me, just by parking. That's the reason most people do it this way, park = no work.

I have been using trafficz, and I get about 1000 type ins a day, and only make like $5, is the problem with trafficz? is sedo much better?
