Basically I'm seeking alternatives to domain parking for domains getting traffic that is from tubes...dating obviously advertises on tubes but is there anything that might be a better option since it's direct navigation? Like are there sponsors with legal tube sites that pay commish for their programs or whatever they're advertising on them? The same question goes for adult forum traffic...I just got a domain doing 100 uniques a day that was formerly an adult forum (I'm too lazy to look deeply and see if it was a forum w/ pirated content posting or what) and while it's doing just okay on parking, I'd like to try something else with it that would make sense. Speaking of which, I have another one that was definitely an illegal forum that I bought/parked that's getting a few hundred uniques a day that I'd like to try something else on too.
I'm not in adult myself, generally just buy/sell adult domains so I'm clueless on this stuff. I would simply like to better monetize some of my adult domains with traffic in general and most of them are getting traffic from former tubes, ancillary traffic from current tubes, or traffic from former forums. The one attempt I previous gave was a niche name getting tons of direct SE traffic (had unbelieveable SERPs on Yahoo for whatever reason despite being parked) and despite the traffic being clickhappy on parking pages, it was converting less than 1:1000 on everything I tried (shocking because I WAS serving the niche) and the parking was paying out about $100 - $140/day on 800 uniques/day and overall doing considerably better than redirecting to programs.
If worse comes to worst, I may consider operating a site but honestly I scrounge for spare time as it is and would just rather have a solution that would be hands-off friendly.
Thanks to everyone who helps.
