Because of this post I decide to put up DevelopMinisites.com and DevelopedMinisites.com for sale- at Snapnames for $429. and $349. Go steal these names today.

But, with the recent decline in domain parking revenues, I might start trying to develop some of my parked domains by putting content on them. Not automated minisites or made for adsense type sites, but not real high quality sites like all of my other ones. An example would be that on my JokePages.com domain, I would put a few hundred jokes. Not a real fancy big joke site, and not one of those template type scripts that comes with a big joke database, because there are already too many copies of that in the search engines. I would just make a very simple site in a few hours that would probably not be something that users would bookmark or ever come back to, and would not be something I ever update again, but would be good for SEO and would not be something that Google would ever consider the type of minisite that violates its content terms (lack of good content).

You have a great looking site and blog platform. How is the Snapname plugin working for you?

You can PM me at my email if you wish.

Thanks,

Great comments, not much for me to add:)

@DNUnderground – You are right about the minisite term. I see alot of corporate sites all the time that have less content than many minisites but no one calls them a minisite, they call them a corporate presence:)

@Trendsighter, those are really nice domains. I wish I had the cash right now. If you haven’t already, you should drop an email to every ‘minisite’ development service out there as you could get a nice bidding war happening.

@ze, good comment, you are spot on, there are so many angles to focus on. I am curious on your purpose built platform, you care to share an example?

There are lots of ways of duplicating a business model, just like a franchise that is built on a business platform, and placed in areas where it can grow, there are web platforms that with a little bit of tweaking can deliver on a variety of different business models. I’ve built my own, and it beats the hell out of ANY minisite, quick site or whatever the industry is calling it these days. There is no better way to have FULL control of what, how and when you deliver on your site. Use affiliate programs, show video, have forums, blogs, messaging boards, social networking, sell your own stuff if you want. The possibilities are endless on these platforms. I’ve found a way of cloning these platforms and making them available to start any business.

A new era of domaining is here. Ultimately the ones benefiting from all this will be internet users, who will find the web more and more full of interesting stuff and results delivered exactly on their search.

In the future if you don’t know about web development you will be a domainer standing on one leg…

Good job Bruce!!
