Question Can You Make Money With Domain Parking?

I always keep stumbling upon those domains which have nothing on them except advertisements. To make my point i will give you this example.

Sometimes i come up with neat domain name and soon as i try to register it, domain registrar tells me that is is already taken.

And what is annoying is that when i type that domain name into my browser, i land on such kind of domains - Made For AdSense i would call it. Nothing but AdSense ads.

I see more and more such domains. Why is that? Probably something works for their owners, don't you think?

Maybe they are making money from this? Why not - register 20 domains, spend 200 dollars and viola - you have 20 domains working for you for full year. And maybe you will make nice return on investment on this.

What about us - PlrPro members? We have less and less opportunities available to register domains with keywords in them since this is what we want - to have domain name with keywords for better search engine optimization.

Of course you can buy any domain you want but at significantly higher price through domain broker. I was thinking about all this and 2 ideas popped up in my mind.

1) We can do same as others do - buy domains, park them at Sedo for example and make money. However i am very concerned as if this business model is against AdSense Terms Of Service.

2) We can buy domains, keep them and wait for buyers to request them, so we can sell them for higher price. For example i buy 10 domains for 100$ and sell them for 200$ - that's double return on investment.

3) And final idea is continue doing what we do - following 90 Day Challenge Plan, monetizing our websites and later after pumping up and promoting our sites, sell not only domain name but also content included.

What do you think of this guys?

Yes you can make money. The people I have spoken too have, although I have never tried it myself. However as you stated it is against Google's TOS and the domain is short lived before getting banned and you must start all over gain.

I personally want something that is for the long haul.

Question Only Domain Names?

Do you mean only domain names or domain names with content included?

Post It Can Get You Banned

This can be only a matter of time until AdSense Team will find out what you are doing with Sedo's MFA sites and ban your from program.

I suggest staying away from this method.
