Yesterday I just finished registering the domains for my ccTLD experiment in which I’m going to buy approximately 200 domains targeted for the Swedish population. The goal was to buy 100 .SE domains and 100 .COM domains, all to be developed in swedish. I ended up with 85 .COM domains and 115 .SE domains due to the fact that many of the .COM’s had been purchased by other investors after my Domainhunter tool discovered them.

Next step will be to put these domains into my development platform in order to let the search-engines discover them, index them and see how they rank initially. After that I (or a copywriter) will develop useful content for each website and see how that changes rankings and traffic. Finally, I will add Adsense to the website and see how well they monetize.

My estimate is that they will provide me with an yearly profit corresponding to 1-2 months worth of salary, that would be approximately $5000-$10000 per year.

I’ll see if I can publish a complete list of the stats of the domains exact matches and CPC.
