Hi all
I've been reading about domain leasing on Self Made Minds (http://selfmademinds.com/200708/domain-leasing-become-an-internet-landlord/) and I thought I might try and give it a go with one of my domains, scottishrealestate.co.uk
At present the domain has a minisite on it, and gets around 200 UVs per month. It earns about £10 per month from Adsense.
I think the traffic has great potential, because at the moment the domain seems to have a weird relationship with Google -- one week it's top 5 for 'scottish real estate' in SERPs, another week it seems to be out of the index altogether.
Obviously if I could keep it on page 1 in Google for those terms, I might have something which is attractive to a potential lessee.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can get the thing to stick in Google? Or should I just try and lease it anyway in its current state?
I think with the current housing market and the fact that Scottish homes are generally cheaper than their English/Welsh counterparts (which is the reason I registered the domain in the first place), it might be of value.
Any thoughts appreciated
