Instant Traffic Using Expired Domains

Written by Wayne Ford


Every day thousands of domains 'expire' and are put back intorepparttar pool of available domains that anyone can register. They can be very valuable if you are looking for a quality domain for your online business, or if you want to re-sell them for profit. But wait! There is another huge advantage to a domain that was previously owned -- Instant Traffic!

As I said above, expired domains have all been owned by someone inrepparttar 108334 past. Many of these previous owners built Websites for these domains, advertised them, registered them with search engines, and even exchanged links with other sites. All translating into traffic to that domain name.

Now, why would someone who tookrepparttar 108335 time to do all that work letrepparttar 108336 domain expire? It could be one of several reasons:

*repparttar 108337 author simply lost interest * an online venture ran out of funding * poor management ofrepparttar 108338 domain * they couldn't affordrepparttar 108339 fees

Whateverrepparttar 108340 reason, it happens. And you can reclaim some ofrepparttar 108341 wasted traffic and use it to your advantage. You can either point it to your existing site or use it to jumpstart and add value to a new site.

How do you know if an expired domain has traffic?

While there is no way to gaugerepparttar 108342 actual amount of traffic going to an expired domain, you can find out its link popularity inrepparttar 108343 major search engines. This will tell yourepparttar 108344 number of Web pages listed in a particular search engine that link to that domain. The more links,repparttar 108345 higher link popularity andrepparttar 108346 more traffic that domain is getting (in some search engines,repparttar 108347 higher ranking, too).
