I just picked up a typo of a major search. It's not a typo of the .com, but of the cctld for that search engine which is also active. It get's 10-15 visitors a day, but little to no clicks parked. Anyone have any good ideas for how to monetize the traffic this domain is getting?
 


Another new service you might want to look into is Bodis.com -- they have been getting LOT of positive reviews. Otherwise NameDrive is also pretty good.
 
I'm not a big fan of parking. And since the traffic is targeted, I doubt one parking program would be better than another in this case. Maybe I will just use it to redirect people to an actual site or forum
 
Sure -- parking may not be as profitable as developed sites but they are an excellent way to make money from thousands of domains. =)
 
I think my reply was lost in limbo, so sorry if it appears later and says the same thing.

Namedrive is where I park a couple of typo cctlds. Seems to convert better than Sedo and Afternic. Bodis.com's standard lander might work a little better though. It's straight to the point, just lists links relevant to your keywords, no graphics, etc.
 
Do the ads on your parked domain closely line up with what the visitors were intending on finding?
 
I signed up for bodis but I'm still waiting to hear back from them.

This is the stats so far on Sedo
