Since I’ve started developing my US city domains I’ve been positively surprised by the adsense clicks.

In general my average adsense clicks are between $0.20-0.30 through out my sites, but the US city names had many clicks in the $0.5-$1 range. The traffic is as targeted as you can get and it’s easy to understand why advertisers would be willing to spend more, but these are relatively small cities, so the number of advertisers is quite limited.

These clicks are definitely nothing compared to what one could earn by attracting direct advertisers. I just read on dnjournal that PalmSprings.com earns over a million dollars a year only from the homepage! This definitely shows the potential in geo domains and pretty clear plan: get a top city domain, make some site and make it rank well in google, find advertisers to purchase banners for some annual fee.

Dnjournal has an interesting story today about the recent GeoDomain conference.

Highly recommended to all geo domain owners. Among the contest nomination for top developed city domains were such gems as:

Vegas.com
Richmond.com
Hawaii.com
Branson.com (more…)

thedomains reports these sales, totaling $25k:

The moniker.com auction from the Geo show in Chicago just concluded with a total of $284K of domains sold.

While there were some good sales, in general I’d say it didn’t do that well. Many people got bargains on city domains
