I picked up limo.ca at the end of last week.

It will be developed out within 3 days.

Very nice Adam! Limo leads can be extremely lucrative online, how are you developing this one? You might want to look into Limos.com affiliate feed (no I am not associated with them). I looked into them before for some of my GeoLimo.com names.. I believe they pay via reservation and also per click:


Limos.com affiliate program snippet:

"Top commissions
We have proven solutions for integrating and promoting limo service on sites just like yours. Your income is positive from day one.

Every time one of your website user submits a qualifying search through Limos.com, you will be paid a 20% commission on the lead fee revenue the search generates - which could be in excess of $1.50. You earn a commission regardless if a reservation is made or not."


I wish .ca would take away some of their residency restrictions so others of us could invest in them as well!

My plan is to setup a really high end looking limo site and have the reservation link go through limos.com as you suggested, I signed up with them a year ago for this purpose.

Took me two years to get the previous owner to sell it to me, persistance pays off. ;)

I know for a fact that many black car companies are shelling out hundreds, and sometimes, thousands of $$ monthly to get listed.
I'd say, stay w/Limo.com for awhile, learn the trade, and peel off.

I believe in today's market it's a bit high but in 3-5 years it will be worth much more than I paid.

I paid 8.5k for it.

A fair price, especially since YOU ARE the end user. That is what many people need to start focusing on.

Great domain. Congrats on the purchase. How do you contact .ca owners? Whois doesn't show any contact details for most of them.

First business I ran was a limo business in Vancouver. I still get calls from customers looking to book 15 years later! Fun business with lots of potential for financial rewards if run properly.

You should do well - get that website up and indexed quickly - the biggest season is almost here - graduation and weddings!

The price you paid is great considering what I used to pay for a full-page in the yellowpages!
