"Tricky" domain names to pair with affiliate programs...

Edwin · 21-04-04

In my domain portfolio, I have a number of domains that get a reasonable amount of monthly typein visitors, yet which don't have "obvious" affiliate programs that I could send the traffic to.

Here are the most difficult to match... hell.co.uk, grantham.co.uk, bankholidays.co.uk, pollen.co.uk, faiths.co.uk, vanillapod.co.uk and liam.co.uk

If you have any ideas, please let me know [I'm happy to hang onto the domains anyway, obviously, but if they can be earning a bit from targeted links that's even better...]

i'd look at travel for bankholidays.co.uk, especially national express . obviously it's only going to make money now and again, but better than nothing and that programme seems good

You bugger, you got one I'd been monitoring when it was suspeded. Hell.co.uk

Why not create sites with adsence being the main part of the sites and just put some information on different things below, for example. Do a bit of a write up on what bank holidays are and things people do but at the top of the page have the google adsence which I would expect to display adverts along the lines of holidays and days out which i would guess would pay quite well...

Cheers

'fraid I hear variants of the above a lot these days - the .co.uk drops are very competitive

Good idea. If I can't find a simple way to go "straight to the source" I might well do that.

Isn't there a town called Grantham near Nottingham?

Liam.co.uk - could be celebrities called Liam and have profiles with links to CD's, posters, DVD's, etc. (Plus it's 'mail' backwards if that sparks anything).

Could try ebay searches

For the bankholiday one do a holiday destination website.

There's bound to be a plug-in pollen map you could add to pollen.co.uk then all you need is an article or two and some affiliate links to online pharmacies for hay-fever treatments...
Maybe an email alert when the pollen count is high...
