Hi,

as i stated today in another forum i am a newbie with good traffic from different kind of domains i acquired; my domains generate around 20.000 visitors / month overall, so not bad.

Problem is that these domains are all of different subjects, so i am trying ways to create revenues from this generic traffic.

I had the idea to create a good links page menu with many different category services; result is here (only home page is functional):

http://www.intermarketing.biz/nowaste

concept is to give a fast-way through for surfers. Another name i thought for the service is : SpeedyPage, or SpeedyDirectory and so on...

is this a good idea? any suggestion?

Hi emaccenti

This doesn't quite answer your question but if you receive that many visits per month your should consider using Adsense on your site(s) to generate revenue from all the traffic.

Just a thought.

If you can keep your links on topic to what the domain was, and what those searchers are looking for, it could work.

To be honest, when I search for something and I come across a site like that, I just hit the back button.

To be honest, I'm like Debs. If I am searching and I arrive at something that looks like it's simple another search engine/directory/link farm/etc. ... I hit the back button, anything else would take to much time. I don't know exactly how I would react finding it through a search engine (since I didn't) but I expect my reaction would be that the "don't waste time" headline would "rub salt in the wound" for me and make me sit up and notice I had just wasted time coming here.

Suggestion: Can you make a landing page for one simple category: say "webmail"

Best of webmail: Yahoo, hotmail, mail.com, etc.

Another landing page completely separate for "Best auto information"

Another for financial services, etc.

this way I think you are more likely to get the clickthrough - no gaurantee, but more likely -- if the page is focused on ONE subject and has less than 10 links. No gaurantees but if you do that and put adsense on the landing pages also .... Why don't you test it with the category that gives you the most traffic first?
