I've just had two good friends show me concepts of fairly elaborate sites they're building out.. three if you count a friend who showed me a development project last week.
It occurred to me that as all these formerly parked category names start getting developed, these domainer-developers are going to be looking to buy other third party traffic to point to their new enterprise. They will buy that traffic from Yahoo and Google, which will sop-up traffic from weak bidders and raise bids.. who wins? The domain owners selling their traffic on a click (Yahoo, Google) or unique (Sendori, Lease This) basis.
The developers win because they create new value, the folks who don't develop win because pay rates for the same traffic goes up as a new form of bidder appears. Just a thought.
Hi Frank
We started developing out our names and if your working on a stragety you can easily still get Geo location traffic names 99% of these names where bought this year and last month we had over 200.000 searches on the sites thats just on the UK ones.We are now changing the design to otimise the sites.
