I'm not sure about what the question was that Costa raised about preowned domains for BANS and getting banned. If you can point me to the comment of his, I'll take a look at it. As for the traffic that a site brings in, it is in the research. I have been gone for a bit and need to put up a post about how I research domains and what I do to check them. I now have Camtasia so it should be good (and interesting at least)! Roger, I’m glad that you found this useful.

I saw a link on Griz blog and really learned about these preowned domains. But how to address the question that costa has raised about using this domain for BANsite and getting banned. Please suggest how to check for those kind of traffic and how to avoid it. thanks. Elliot,

Using an aged, authority domain, you have the benefit of Google’s trust, the age of the domain gives it more authority than a new one and a well build site with plenty of relevant content can see itself rising quickly in the SERPs with the right promotional work of getting links and building trust.

This buying of aged domain is something I only started to learn and research about recently. No real experience as yet, lol As you have mentioned in your reply, I also have noticed the DMOZ listed gets bid on quickly and most of them never make it to closeouts. As for backlinks, I do tend to get attracted to those with alot of backlinks, though not all are quality links. But this area I feel is especially tricky. Anyways, looking forward to learning more from your articles, :) <em>Ms RP's last blog post..<a href='http://msrpblog.blogspot.com/2008/06/random-post-cost-cutting-and-sugared.html' rel="nofollow">Random Post: Cost Cutting and Sugared Square Crackers</a></em> Hi Elliott,

I don't know if they delist sites or not as I have never bought one that is listed. Not for not trying, but they go quickly at auctions. As for the backlinks, it will help your site maintain PR and the existing backlinks if you target a related or similar niche at the original site had. However, don't let it ruin what you are wanting to do with it. That is a hard call about Dmoz. I don’t know if they delist sites or not as I have never bought one that is listed.

You mentioned some interesting aspects such as buying a domain with someones' name and use it as a multi niche for linking to your other sites. And your point about not putting too much worth on page rank is something I try to practice but sometimes ignoring, lol. A question, besides age, I am curious about the nature of backlinks and DMOZ listed. If I buy an aged domain and it's currently listed on dmoz, will it get delisted in future? Your help is much appreciated! <em>Ms RP's last blog post..<a href='http://msrpblog.blogspot.com/2008/06/random-post-cost-cutting-and-sugared.html' rel="nofollow">Random Post: Cost Cutting and Sugared Square Crackers</a></em> Hi Elliott,

This will show if it has anything indexed or not in the search engine. I have bought some older domains that have had the parked page indexed in it, so I know that it hasn't been Google banned. I have also bought some other ones that had nothing in for it and I had to ask for reinclusion. Fuerza,
