Nice article David.

I think the real point of your article is that a good "typein" domain that receives decent traffic isn't the only value of a domain name, nor the type of website you can create on the domain, nor the quality of prodserv your company offers through the site.

It has been apparent to many domainers for several years that an essential part of monetizing their portfolio is to proportion their "deadwood" domains to some sort of content built website. (A "deadwood" domain is a brandable domain that gets no typein traffic nor makes any revenue because it's mistakenly allowed to linger at a traditional parking service.)

The advantages of having even a small amount of relevant content on a domain's webpage can get the domain indexed with search engines. At that point, the domain name becomes a 'brand' if it pulls in visitors from a search engine result.

Putting content on deadwood domains turns them into "foundations" that brand your domains and allows sales to be generated from content growth and prodserv offered, or from CPA, your own adfeeds, or others.

The biggest roadblock to achieving the conversion of deadwood domains to become brand foundations has been the cost of developing each of the domains with content and optimizing them.

Once you find a domain monetizing service that provides you this opportunity at an affordable price, you need to pull your domains from traditional parking (not the ones making revenue!) and point them to this new content-providing service.

It is inevitable that this will become the norm for all domain investors.
