What Am I Currently Working On?

Currently I am working on developing a website or as some would call it a minisite for each domain name I own in my portfolio. I am a firm believer in developing sites, rather than just parking a domain name. The ultimate goal is to give the major search engines a little food to index you. There is no secret to it, the more original content you have the better chance you will have of being indexed.

Two of the domains I have been working on this week are SolarLaptop.net and WebDocumentManagement.com both of these domain names were registered quite some time ago, but I am just now getting around to working on them. Sometimes it happens this way, especially when you have a full time job. I make an effort these days to try and work on the smaller sites myself. It makes no sense to outsource a minisite as the costs tend to add up. I am only concerned about recouping my domain registration fee and the overall hosting fee everything else in my eyes, since I enjoy doing this in my spare time is an added bonus.

The domain SolarLaptop.net was registered on a drop in February 2010. The name has a great deal of potential since the market for solar laptop chargers is growing. In the near feature solar laptops will also make it to the overall computer market here in the US on a main stream basis. There are already a few companies working on prototypes for such a computer.

WebDocumentManagement.com was also registered on a drop in February 2010. I felt that this name had a great deal of potential as well because it pretty much encapsulates an entire market which is currently exploding here in the United States. What market might that be? Web Document Management is that market and companies like evernote and box.net are paving new landscapes in this department. These days you don't have piles of clutter around your house, you can simply buy a scanner and utilize a web document management service to organize everything digitally.

Well there you have it, both sites are up and running so my next step is to make sure to fully monetize the sites using affiliate programs and the adsense program. In addition to this I will be working on 3 other domain names this weekend! As always its important to keep moving forward, my goal is to develop at least 50 - 100 domain names by the end of this year. I am pretty sure I can achieve that goal!
