The History of Gold and Silver research web site is more of a service than a commercial site. We are not officially a non-profit organization at this time, but the intent is about the same. The success is due to traffic coming from the cartoons on kitco.com and press releases that are published from time to time.
There are 50+ commercial domains that are currently under construction. The idea is to develope the sites that are actual google search terms. With relevant content and service, these domains have a great chance of gaining number one ranking on a google search. With promotional advertising for these sites, the sky is the limit.
A Vision for the History of Gold and Silver
The History of Gold and Silver web site will be the center of this universe, with other linked web sites orbiting around it. It is designed to be a service to the viewer who is looking for information on gold and silver from a historical viewpoint. From here, other web sites will be built and linked that are commercial in nature.
Other brandable web sites such as buycollectablecoin.com , buyunksilver.net , buysilverbullion.net , getgoldandsilver.com , junksilvercoin.com , (which are currently working web sites) amoung other brandable domain name web sites (which are currrently parked with ads, see list below), will be linked back to the History of Gold and Silver. Each unique web site will be linked to each other as a galaxy with the gravitational pull of the History of Gold and Silver. This increases google ranking, although the informative nature of the sites will bring the people.
Each site will have an article written around the idea of the brandable domain name, such as buy collectable coin. The articles are not intended to be exhaustive, but simple, easy to understand and an invitation to do more research. Once they are confident in their knowledge, they may very well buy collectable coin. Sponsor ads will be there to help them make wise purchases.
Each web site will offer links to 450 books on the subject of gold and silver. Mining history, monetary use, jewelry and art uses are featured in the books available through the History of Gold and Silver Book Store. This is a service to the customer.
My goal is to have each brandable domain name achieve #1 google ranking for their particular search term, such as "buy collectable coin". Most of the brandable domain names listed below currently function as parked sites with ads until I can build custom web sites for them.
