Why You Should Buy Expired Domains Revisited

November 25th, 2008 | Posted in domain name speculation

Why should you buy expired domains ? I have written about this subject previously, but it is time to highlight once again this great opportunity.

There are many good reasons if you are interested in making money online. One reason is that these domains are aged which increases their popularity in the eyes of the search engines. There may even still have PR ( best to check with a site such as estibot ). Also, they may have backlinks that are still intact.

There are many websites out there that claim to have an exclusive list that you can purchase of premium names that are about to expire or others that still receive lots of organic traffic. Make sure that you research these websites before you buy expired domains from them. Some of these sites are advertising high number of hits to certain sites, when in fact, the traffic was generated by them. Of course, they are only doing this to entice people to sign up and to pay. In other words, make sure that you are buying your expired domains from a place that has lots of good reviews and great status.

If you are not sure where to look when you are ready to buy expired domains, I have a suggestion for you. Try out freshdrop for researching and purchasing expired domains. They have lots of information on the expired domains on their site. Select the option closeouts and you will notice that it is possible to pick up most of these domains for as little as $5 each ( plus you will have to buy to register each domain ).

When selecting an expired domain, make sure that it contains a nice keyword within its name. Also, check to see which niche or area it was focussed in on when it was online. Lots of times you will be getting traffic right away. Good luck with your search for expired domains and let me know how it goes for you.

    Richard : Thanks a lot for the stumble :) I appreciate it :)

    Jenny : Buying expired domains is better because sometimes the site will not be sandboxed like the newer sites.
