Red face Help Wanted: Getting Traffic for Free

Hi All,

I'm after some help. I'm a novice in the industry of domains, and have recently joined Sedo to see if I can make some money with some domains I have purchased over time for projects that have not happened because of time.

My problems is that as my domains have never been used for anything, they now have a parking page but no way of peolple finding them except for the occasional direct keyin.

I dont want to spend any money on them or time really, so whats the best way of maybe getting some search engine registrations and maybe picking up some traffic and a few clicks for the parking pages which are set to use a optimisation keyword related to the domain in Sedo?

Any help would be gratefully appreciated. The total number of domains is about 30. About 15 are in Sedo and I was planning to put the rest with Domain Sponsor so I could the differences.

Cheers, M.

Re: Help Wanted: Getting Traffic for Free

imho, having them parked @ sedo is such a waste, because u can't control anything vis-a-vis seo.

u won't be able to get into domain sponsor unless u have a certain amount of traffic in your 'portfolio', and i think they operate in the same/similar way as sedo.

my preferred way is to put them in fabulous and optimize the keywords, title words and certain content words yourself. that's about the only place which will allow u to do so. i find it very useful and helpful, because the search engines are picking it up thus placing 'em higher.

Thanks for the info. I will checkout fabulous (never heard of it before) later on.

But, how do I get domains into the search engines so that my pages can stand a chance of 'placing 'em higher'?!?

well, that's the info which is worth some money, or at least some dnf$ (since u r brand new here and have no $dnf, other newbies are then encouraged to act and donate some my way

2 answer your question, u need to associate your domain with the content provided within your 'website'. the quickest way 2 do is via 'keywords' 'title words'. for example, if u have domain 'high heel shoes dot com' - u will most likely want to optimize your keywords for 'high heel shoes' , 'high heels', 'sexy shoes' , 'prada shoes' etc.. so that s.e. pix u up and associate your domain with those keywords (when people are searhing for them.) if you want to see what words are most searched check out the overture tool. if u do that u will see that most people r searching 4 the following terms related to high heels:

35871 high heel fetish
5505 sexy high heel
3786 high heel boot
3139 high heel stocking

there4, if i was u i would first use those keywords, and then add some of my own...

anyway, if u sign up with fabulous u will c that their interface allows u to 'optimize' certain features, including the keywords i'm talking about.

as 1 other member of this forum likes to say: 'seek and u shall find'

p.s.

word of wisdom, if u use highly competitive words the seo placement will be very poor because to place very high u will need a real wesbite with content, pr links, history etc.. but if u use relatively minor keywords and/or non-competitive words u willl be placed high very quickly.

Re: Help Wanted: Getting Traffic for Free

How do I get some $dnf? and how can I donate them if I have 0?

What I was trying to get at was the submission side of getting into search engines. Should I use one of the submission tools like TopDog and if not how do I go about getting listed everywhere and maybe getting an Alexa ranking and some Google PR. :huh:
