click platform all together.
Their strategy involves getting portfolio owners to band
together so they can shop a larger block of traffic to
the highest bidder. Their site says "Just because you
may be happy with your existing parking provider doesn't
mean that you're getting the best possible rates. Keep in
mind there may be more than one rate available, such as
individual rates, or bulk rates. For individuals,
bulk rates can be very difficult to obtain. With our
combined volume, however, we are able to pull together to
get outstanding rates that benefit everyone."

For those who want to
venture beyond parking, Rick Latona's new AEIOU.com
site offers an affordable solution. Latona explained
the new offering in a post on his blog
Friday saying, "We’ve been building, SEO optimizing and marketing our domains as mini-sites for a couple of years now. I hate parking and most of you |
|
know this. When we build a site we put custom
written content on it and then do link building on the domain so that
Google and the other major search engines will feel it is relevant. The
end result is that the names get listed in the search engines and have rankings that continue to improve."
Latona added. "What we’ve put together is a simple formula and an
assembly line process that can quickly and cheaply allow us to take
any domain, slap a simple design on it, 5 pages of custom text, and a day of intense link building all at an affordable price.
Because we use separate experts for each task and pump out hundreds of sites per week we are able to offer this service to you, the
domainer, for $250 or less per name."

There's one other
interesting new service we want to note today,
but this one involves managing domain news and
information rather than monetization. Many of
you are already familiar with |
|
|
Domaining.com,
a site that pulls headlines from various
domain news feeds and posts them in
chronological order so you can scan the latest
information from a wide variety of sites in
one place. |
|
|
A
new RSS aggregation service has now entered
the fray at DNHeadlines.com.
Their twist is that they keep each site's
headlines together in individual sections
devoted to each source they draw from. |
|
In
an interview with Sergio Rodriguez at Facebook.com,
DNHeadlines creator Michael Rhodes
explained the rationale behind his approach
saying "I had researched RSS Mashups,
but just couldn't get on board with the idea
of mixing all kinds of great content together.
An RSS Mashup would have buried the scope,
continuity, and tone of the content
contributors, and valuable interesting content
would get bumped off the list when new mashed
content is updated. I decided on RSS Feed
aggregation; a method by which targeted feeds
are parsed, pulling out the bits I need like
the title, the most recent ten posts and the
first 200 characters, and the root web address
for the header."
The
result is an in depth, neatly organized
compilation of recent news and information
from close to four dozen sites around the web.
Domaining.com and DNHeadlines.com are quite
different from each other as a result and they
complement each other well. Domaining.com
gives you a quick overview of news from the
past 24 hours while DNHeadlines offers a
broader range of recent material that stays in
view for a week or more. Domain news junkies
will want to bookmark both sites.
