The big U.S media companies are at it again. This time they are striking Canada after trying to get SOPA approved in the United States, but met with lots of opposition from the internet community.

The large media companies however is also trying this in Europe with a law called ACTA, which is currently being protested by people in Europe. These laws do not serve anyone but the large corporations and give them too much power. The power to shut down websites for minor copyright infractions.

Since I started back in 2005 tinkering with designing web sites and placing affiliate links on the website, I have come a long way working my web business part-time.  It is now at the end of 2009, and soon 2010 and from a percentage perspective the business is now making almost twice its cost, about 90% profit, before taxes.

Currently .com, .net, .us, .org, .info, .name, and .biz domains cost me $6.99 USD. However, this coming November which is only a few days away, 1and1 will be raising .com, .net, .us, .org, .info, .name, and .biz domain prices to $8.99 per year. That is a $2 difference, quite a bit…28.75% increase to be exact.

A post on Paul Sloan “The Key” blog talks about Apple finally getting control or buying out the domain name iPhone.com. Apparently, iPhone.com use to point to a website that had a bunch of ads on it that sold cell phones, however the website did not sell iPhones, go figure. It was probably a MFA (Made For Adsense) site.

If you are unfamiliar with the term “domain tasting” than this is the post or article will help shed some light on the subject. Basically, domain tasting is when an individual or a business purchases a large amount of domains and parks them right away to test to see if there is any traffic on the domain name and also to see if the traffic can be converted into clicks which generate revenue. The two things they are looking for is “type-in” traffic and high “click-through-ratio (CTR). If the domain names they register makes more than what the domain name cost, then they keep the domain names, however if they don’t then of course the obvious route is to cancel the domain names.

This method of making money on the internet / online is one of my favourite methods. I currently do this with about 57 micro websites, but one thing you have to remember is that the domain names that the micro websites are built on must have type-in traffic. Type-in traffic is where web users type in the domain name like “suv-wheels.com” into the web browser URL field. Type-in traffic is also called direct navigation.

For those of you out there who are not familiar with the domain monetization business, the term “domain parking” might sound funny. But, essentially that is exactly what it is, the domains are like parking lots on a busy city street where there is lots of traffic, and when a visitors comes by and pays, its like someone clicking on an ad. The domain makes money.

To have a presence on the internet the first thing any company or person must do is register a domain name. For example, sportswatch.com if the company wants to sell sports watches.

The domain name is the foundation, that all other services is built upon.
- Websites and blogs can be built once a domain name is registered
- Email services can be created for a domain name
- PPC (Pay Per Click) domain parking sites can be set up for a domain
etc…. you get the idea.

Before I start detailing each way of making money from the internet as listed in my previous post, I would first like say that it is hard work and definitely not a get rich quick scheme. It is more like the more time and effort you put into it, the more you can potentially make.
