There are a lot of ways to make money online. I like to focus on things that grow my list...that's my thing...but sometimes I will utilize internet marketing strategies that don't build my list. I might do that, or encourage other people to do that because you can sometimes make some good passive income this way, and I know a lot of people can really use that. So while I know that list building is the best focus for your long-term business goals, there is nothing wrong with also making some money from strategies like parking domain names.
What do I mean by parking domain names? Well, you find a domain name that has good traffic that for whatever reason the previous owner let expire. Then you redirect that traffic to a parking site.
What is a parking site? Basically, there are companies that specialize in this. They know that they can make money from all the expired domain names out there by putting ads on a page and directing traffic to it. A percentage of that traffic will click on the ads and BAM! They just made money.

You've probably seen these pages...maybe you didn't realize what they were, but pretty much if you've been looking around online at all, you've run across a couple at least!
When you click on a link, or type in a URL, if a website comes up that looks like a bunch of ads or links...chances are really, really good that you have hit a parked page. Sometimes it will even say that this page is parked. Other times there may be some loosely related ads and links on the page and you can't figure out how anybody could make money at it because it seems so disconnected. That's because they aren't promoting necessarily to a niche...they are feeding off the name or keyword in the domain name.

So how do YOU make money at this? You buy the expired domain name and then you redirect it to the parking company. They do all the work. They put up the site, they put up the ads...you know they'll show Google ads on the site. So now when somebody clicks on the ad you and the parking company split the revenue.

You might find a great name that is in your niche but you aren't ready to promote to it yet. Rather than just buying the name and letting it sit there, redirect it to a parking company and make some money from the traffic. Later, after you have built your website you can redirect that name back to your site knowing that you already have existing traffic!
Parking expired domain names can work as one of your internet marketing strategies for profits. You probably won't make a ton of money of any single page, but you might be able to have several of these sites and make some serious revenue. Or you can have it be one of the strategies that you utilize just for some passive income while you are list building in your niche.
