Online Profit Opportunities
The world of online marketing and domain promotion operates with dollar signs in its crosshairs. Taking profit online is a guilt-free occupation. If responsible webmasters don’t position their sites and groom their online research for clicks and related revenue opportunities, the money can’t flow. But the tools to realize cash revenue can be unwieldy for domain name owners.
Digital goods can be electronically conveyed and charged for, and pathways to these thin margins of income can be loaded onto any site that takes the webmaster’s fancy, in any order they choose. But not every site has got its act together yet. Defining an image, offering a service, honing a brand, or establishing a foothold on a market niche takes work in the Internet world.
But the opportunity to partner with another webmaster, provide online profiles for clients and their websites or domain names, and/or consult with broker, auction or resale estimates for their names is everywhere on the domain forums and auction sites. These are some of the most basic and primary marketing and promotion services any domainer looks for.
1. Location Data Mining
The market for location data is expected to reach nearly $13 billion by 2014. ISP providers and Google can package your personal data and release it by court order or corporate policy. Geomapping and zip code data can provide a saleable database for future resale. Adding records via blog posts and article entries with associated table data relating to cities and zip codes can have value.
Online users have a research use for those types of data which makes any database containing it saleable. Building a database with sushi restaurants indexed by zip code, constructing an art and craft supply website with link urls to the major craft fairs and supply stores online, and focusing on building a nice database for a selected user niche for certain website’s services all have a value. Data mine for a target niche, and vend the data online.
2. Affiliate Revenues
With strategic and aggressive content composition effort built around a related domain name , a profitable website starts to take shape. When page ranking projects a competitive start value to ad placement, affiliate ads cane start racking up fees for clicks. But building a qualifying website that can deliver clicks and traffic to justify the hosting costs remains a task.
3. Sponsor Promotions
Individual and direct marketing sponsorships take work to negotiate and coordinate, but they can be well worth the trouble. Direct sponsorship ads have the benefit of being custom crafted with original graphics. But the hidden value of original executed sponsorship ads is the novelty value they will have, versus the ‘already seen that” presence so many affiliate ads languish in.
4. Domain Marketing for Resale
Many domain names are purchased for the sole goal of resale for profit. The portfolio of a domainer is rife with opportunities for strategic resale. The pricing and email campaign to market the domain, or the purposeful listing of the domain name at auction is the bottom line. But identifying likely domain name buyers from IP addresses and reference urls can also be likely.
5. Online Domain Name Promotion Services
Promoting a domain name, spreading links online, submitting urls and writing content are all ways to realize dollar value for efforts online. Take a visit to get Listed.org and scope a local business or your own firm. Missing a few entries or a zero result? Null presence on search engines is a bad sign. Just suggesting key information and basic facts can make visitors to a given website much happier.
Software for link and article submission and link building is only one way to make money online. Listing domain site abstracts and communicating a site’s main idea takes work. Making the site effective and optimizing traffic, SEO and hosting resources is a saleable job. Evaluate what skills you are good at and build a reportoire of online clients and sales. Tweaking blogs and delivering graphics are in-demand services webmaster need.
6. Brand/Service Creation and Promotion
Learning how to build Facebook, MySpace, Twitter and YouTube presences is an art. These setups can take time and effort not every webmaster has. There is always one slice of the brand promotion pie a webmaster is loathe to execute on his own. Once done effectively, the process or cluster of promotion tools can be enabled for others. Anything that saves time is of value to domainers, including auction droplist analysis and data collection.
Once a domainer can demonstrate to a webmaster they can imitate a result or deliver a product, they are in business. Writing a search code script, inventing a new animation, offering an online widget, anything the webmaster can do to provide a solution can work. Building a database of local business that will print a page of material for a flash drive or businesses with free babysitting could be a Twitter superstar of tomorrow. If you build it, they will come.
Webmasters and domain owners can leverage an online or realtime user base, traffic volume, or demographic of site users to get clients or exercise site publicizing activities. Whatever “problem” one webmaster has, there are likely thousands standing behind them in line to solve it.
I found your blog on google and read a few of your other posts. I just added you to my Google News Reader. Keep up the good work. Look forward to reading more from you in the future.
Great Blog post. I am going to bookmark and read more often. I love the Blog template
shoot fun story man.
Terrific work! This is the type of information that should be shared around the web. Shame on the search engines for not positioning this post higher!
Just wanted to say I really like your site and will definitely be back!
Hi – anyone there want our account – we are checkitlive.com a live streaming portal site with over 60 high quality live video streams of surf, animals and tourist sites. We have launched in May and noy (July 09) have 795,800 page impressions per month and is growing at over 200% per month with 10 – 20 new feeds coming on line each month. This is a fantastic oppertunity to get in on the ground floor – we are just starting to break into the US market.
The “affluent” are not the only ones who caused the issues we have now. Many people from all financial levels bought over-priced (for their income) homes with too good to be true mortgage options. The foreclosure rates are skyrocketing, but not just for the affluent. I somewhat blame the Realtors and mortgage lenders who were looking at fast profits instead of long term effects. Many home buyers are overwhelmed by the contracts and just jump in. I don’t approve of that, but that is the case in many of these foreclosures. They trusted the experts who were looking out after their own best interests. I still live by the saying “buyer beware”, though.
Some of it is billing. Some of it is meeting with clients. Some of it is drumming up new business. Some of it is doing marketing collateral.
can anyone suggest option for online promotion without social media marketing, email marketing…?
Hello, I have to mention this is a nice description. Such clever writing is not very common these days. Informed comment like this has to be applauded. I’ll certainly be looking in on this blog again soon.It would be amazing if you could join us at friendships’ site

I thought people might be interested in these low cost business websites. Thanks.
Interesting take on this issue. I for one have seen many twists on this and can often spot the holes in the arguement however, on this occasion I belelive your writing is such that everyone should be in agreement with this. Thank you for sharing it with us.
It does seem that everybody is into this kind of stuff lately. Don’t really understand it though, but thanks for trying to explain it. Appreciate you shedding light into this matter. Keep it up
Adverts are sometimes banned, or deemed unsuitable for the public. Do you feel that in modern times there is more pressure on advertisers to be sensitive, with the content of their adverts? If so, why do you think this is?
remember when I first started thinking this was more confusing than it should be
Normally I find blogs through the comments that other blogger leaves on those blogs, and so it adds to it.
You made some good points there. I did a search on the topic and some related sub topics and I have found a lot of corresponding views.
Cast your mind back 5 years and it seems that people were clicking on online banner ads for fun! – not anymore. Why is this? Does the banner now fall undr the term of ‘traditional media’ or is it just a little tired. I have been running and uploading banner adverts for online companies for around 10 years and there seems to be a definite shift in the way people look at banner advertising these days. It now seems that static banners with simple messages actually create better responses than complicated animations. Any thoughts?
I’m a new webmaster and I’m wondering what your opinion is on the subject of SEO.
Marketing tip: Do you talk about your client’s need and forget your own company’s accomplishments in your ad?
