error pages and marketing - the sneeky way
Hi if you just want to make a few bucks out of your error page,
plaster the error pages with pop ups and pop unders and affiliate banners from one end to the other, if you load enough popups on it. you should get about 20 cents a unique, you need to find pop firms that allow other pop up company's on the same page,
you can then buy targeted traffic that have to stay on a page for 30 seconds, time all you pops at 5 10 15 seconds etc, and the cost is approx 4 - 5 cents a visit, so you should profit from most hits, some will not stay long enough, and some will have blockers, however there are popups that even firefox IE cant touch, so time early if possible, even if you make 1 cent per person, its a profit and the more people that visit the more pennies,
also being an error page has a lot of benefit too, it wont make your real site look cheap and nasty, just dont use adsense, or google will have blue fit.
the one downside is it must be calculated, you must profit from it everytime and make enough of a margin to cover the extra bandwidth,, as well pay for more traffic and put some money in your pocket,
test if with 1000 visits at first and see what you make, if its up, get 10000 then 100thousand, or till your server melts,
or just let it do it naturally, lol
Tasmania is starting to get cold already,
Kindest Regards
