I find that some dropped domains with some traffics, and want to register it for parking.

What traffic is it worth to register it when in the first 4 days? I like to delete it if it is not worth. Thanks!

I would keep name if it gets $0,03-0,04 per day.

Depends on how much your pay for the annual fee. If it is a .com, which you can register for around 6-7 dollars, 3 cents a day you can keep. Won't make you rich, but you won't loose money either ;-)

Oh, it seems that the bottom line is to balance the budget of the domain name. Thanks!

where can you reg for a few days, check traffic then cancel? Is it a hassel to do? Is there a certain limit to the number you can reg and cancel?

You can do this at moniker for example.

No, it's easy at Moniker. But it costs 25 cents to drop them.

Hard to say how much traffic is the cutoff for keeping. Depends how long you think the traffic will last. On dropped domains you have to assume the traffic will die off unless it is coming from links. Sometimes you will have only 10-20 days to make your money back, so you need more like 35 cents per day. For typos and such, anything over 3 hits per day should eventually monetize better than reg fee.

Yes, for the dropped one, the traffic may only last a short time. It is another aspects. Thanks!
