Affiliates Making Money Off Parked Domains

I've frequently encouraged affiliates to make use of their 404 error pages by serving up some relevant affiliate links to capitalize on the traffic that accidentally hits those pages.

Having over 100 domains, you'd think it would occur to me that parked domain pages could be similarly leveraged to get some incremental affiliate commissions.

I'd say a good 50% of my domains are parked on generic pages that don't do me any good. I just haven't bothered to do anything with them while I wait to use them for an appropriate project.

So it was particularly interesting to me to chat with Monte Cahn, the Founder/CEO of Moniker, last week about one of his properties, Traffic Club.

This site is billed as a domain profit maximization tool. Traffic Club can help you make money with your otherwise unused domain names through their traffic monetization tool that helps you figure out which pay per click (PPC) ad network will bring in the most domain parking revenue.

Traffic Club automatically selects the best PPC ad network for each of your domains to maximize domain parking revenue, and provides summary and detailed reporting on domain traffic and domain parking revenue.

Additionally, they enable you to modify your landing pages to give you the flexibility to target different keywords on each domain.

I'm always amazed at seemingly logical ideas like this that most people aren't doing. So go and monetize those otherwise dead pages already.
