Seriously, how? The domain CABLE.COM gets between fifteen and twenty thousand hits per month, mostly by users of AOL and people looking for local cable providers. I inherited the domain when I took over a customer's hosting business a couple of years ago, and it's been pointing it to a standard "inactive" default page for a while now. This much traffic is an opportunity to generate revenue. I have other domains which have not-quite-as-much accidental traffic, but in total there's probably over fifty thousand visits coming to my servers each month which do nothing but advertise my own services. Is there something else I can use to turn that traffic into money? -- Paul Chvostek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Operations / Abuse / Whatever +1 416 598-0000 it.canada - hosting and development http://www.it.ca/
