Underground Stealth Tactics For Immediate & Low Cost Traffic, Subscribers & Profits

I love loopholes. That’s exactly what buying expired domain names is – a big traffic loophole. It works because over time a domain has been built up - A mixture of time, money and know-how have been ploughed into it – and it draws in a good amount of traffic. But now, for whatever reason, that domain has expired. Where once there may have been a thriving website pulling income in from various sources, it no longer exists. And it’s up for grabs to the first person who recognized what a potential goldmine it is. We’ll look at why domains expire a little later (it’s not always because some dopey marketer forgot to renew it) but for now let’s look at the underlying concept behind obtaining free targeted traffic simply by scooping them up.

Before we go on, I know some people may have moral objections behind purchasing expired domains, and that’s fine. After all, you’re taking advantage of a domain which has traffic coming into it because someone had invested a lot of time and/or money into it. From my perspective, I want you to understand that it’s my job to show my customers and newsletter subscribers genuine ways to make money online. That’s why I have to cover all legitimate topics provided that they are legal (which this is).

Now I’d like to introduce the concept of link popularity. When looking for an expired domain with ready made streams of traffic this is one factor that you must pay close attention to. An expired domain with plenty of backlinks is very likely to have a targeted stream of traffic built in to it.

Let’s say that you have a site about beauty products. You then exchange website links with 100 other websites that have a complimentary theme. You’ll then create a steady income of traffic onto your beauty website from these back links. It also improves your status with search engines. Once you find expired domains that have a high amount of backlinks and scoop them up then you’ve just acquired a site that has a stream of visitors interested in the broad beauty niche. You could immediately use this stream of visitors to make money by:
• Setting up a simple content website & Adsense adverts that serve ads that appeal instantly to your website visitors (here’s a great article that shows you how to go about setting up content sites that can make you a fortune with Adsense income) .

• Offering highly targeted beauty products via your affiliate links.

• Capturing the visitors email address, perhaps via a free report, so that you can offer them backend products via email marketing.

• Perhaps you’ve already got your own beauty related product that you can sell to your visitors.

Ordinarily, you would have to set-up your website first, get the above in place and THEN go about the hard part of actually marketing the domain and slowly getting traffic to it. It can take ages to get a new website listed on popular search engines. It’s also time consuming, and often expensive to get traffic coming into a new site (no matter which traditional method you try). With expired domain purchases ,when done correctly, you already have a steady stream of visitors coming into your website from day one. Your site has immediate search engine placement. The income starts to flow from day one. Isn’t that just peachy?

The great thing about buying expired domains is that you can also simply use the traffic to feed your existing projects. Got a website on travel that’s already successful? Find expired travel domains that fit your site and use them for immediate traffic gains. In fact it does not matter what niche you’re in – you can use this strategy to jumpstart your website income immediately.

You can find expired domains that yield anywhere from a few unique and targeted visitors a day, to a few hundred, to a few thousand. Your investment? $10 to register a domain name. Even if you found domains that yielded 10 unique visitors a day, you would get 3,520 uniques over the course of just one year. Do you think you could make a profit from this if your outlay was just a tenner? You bet.

Search engine traffic can be a great source of website traffic, however, it’s not as solid as type-in traffic. This is due to the ranking search engines place on websites which is based on their own proprietary system. A domain name could be receiving traffic because it was placed in the top 10 listings of a particular search then expired and not leads to the dreaded “404 page not found” screen. However, its very likely that since the content of the original website is no longer there the placement of that domain will change once they search engine updates their rankings. Nonetheless, it can still be a very easy and targetted source of traffic.

Traffic from Misspellings and Typos

Misspellings of popular generic terms are also a form of browser type-ins. The only difference is that online surfers probably do not intend to type the domain name as a typo.

An example of this would be anscestry as opposed to ancestry. Which one is correct? Well according to our traffic log there is a small percentage of surfers that believe anscestry is the correct way to spell ancestry. Although their intention is for ancestry.com they end up at anscestry.com which is still targeted traffic to anything related to ancestry.

*note: there is an unscrupulous practice known as typo-squatting. We do not condone this and advise against registering any domain names in which there is a possible trademark infringement.

Domain Type In Traffic

Domain Type In Traffic

Browser type-ins are domains that are “type-in” directly into the browser’s address location bar. These are usually generic terms such as autos, business, loans. So their domain name equivalent naturally would be autos.com, business.com and loans.com.

Many online surfers bypass the search engines and directly type in autos.com when they search for information on autos online. The visitor to sales ratio is higher for these websites as opposed to websites that receive their traffic by other means which makes them highly desirable.

Why Domains are So Vital to Your Online Presence

Why Domains are so vital to your online presence
To establish a successful business online it is necessary for a “location” to allow your website to be easily found. Just as for brick and mortar establishments the location of a business can make or break its success.

Imagine wanting to open up your own fast food restaurant in the desert of arizona where every other house is no closer than 10 miles apart. I highly doubt you’ll get many people to your restaurant because very few will know you are there.

Your domain name is your location that will be used to market and brand your internet identity. It can be used to brand and market brick and mortar establishents as well.

Imagine having a domain name that instantly captures and lures targetted visitors to your website. How much would one of those targetted visitors to your site be worth?

Depending on what you sell, a high priced product can convert into hundreds of dollars in profit.

If you could snatch up a great domain name that receives 10 targeted visitors to your website would it be worth it?

Lets assume the following:

cost of domain name is $10/year or less
the domain name you register is www.blablaproducts.com
you are selling bla bla for $39.95 and receive $25 net profit from each sale
your visitor to sales ratio is 300:1
www.blablaproducts.com gets 10 targetted visits a day

Lets calculate how much is visitor is worth:

10 visitors a day = 300 visitors a month
your visitor to sales ratio is 300:1 so in that first month you make one sale
you make $25 profit on your bla bla product
so already you’re up $15 ($25profit - $10domaincost) on the investment of your domain name
each visitor would be worth about $.083 ($25/300visitors) to your business

Conclusion: good domain name = good business strategy
