Not really sure if that is aconomy, I think Yahoo is a dead fish.

We are counting on a dead fish - my yahoo earnings are down a lot too.

if you have adsense account just put some pages and you may make more money.

Time to truly assess the results.

Out of 50 names, how many really had traffic.
Out of those names, how many actually had clicks.
How much of the traffic converted.

If all of the above are dismal, move to another parking company and try the names there.

I just recently took all at Sedo that were under 20% conversion and put on Bodis.com.

Already seeing positive results. I will most likely them there for 30 days. At the end of thirty days, I will evaluate again. Those that are performing great at Bodis, I will leave at Bodis.

From there, I am not sure who I will trial with. Parked and NameDrive are almost predicable for me.


So, assess your portfolio at Parked, take some names elsewhere, and see how they do. To get an honest idea of performance, you have to commit to a minimum of 2 weeks but 30 days is better.

Yah you forgot essentil info like doc said how much money were they making before and how much traffic . Economy is only bad for people who have consistent habits in my eyes if you are doing the samething you were doing when things were up just change what you are doing develope or change parking companies or liquidate and get better domains

yeah, way too many names are getting less than 1 cent per click...i can only assume this is foreign traffic but even US traffic is getting piss poor these days. the 5 bucks a click days are veryyy rare.
