Do You Noomle?

This post is to report that I have started and am continuing to move my domains away from traditional parking pages to the Noomle.com parking/minisite system.

Noomle provides users with adsense or ypn ready templates you can utilize by changing your dns to their servers.  These templates are ready to be converted into fully developed minisites as you can control all content and new pages.  You only need one article to be added to your ‘minisite’ to be able to activate that domain in the Noomle system.  Noomle has an article library where you can use articles for your sites, however, I highly recommend using your own articles that you write or purchase from a freelance writer.  It’s easy to quickly activate new pages where videos and news headlines that are relevant to your domain name or keyword  are aggregated.  Here are two of my Noomle monetized domains: VisitTaipei.net and ComboUnits.com.  It took me 5-10 minutes to set up each site, which includes the time it took me to write/add my own ‘article’ for each one.  Yes, these are very skin and bone ‘sites’ but I am not touting my content, just the results.

Impressive.  That’s the word that comes to mind when I compare results over the last couple months with my Noomle optimized sites compared to Sedo, Parked and NameDrive, the top three companies I have/will move away from.  I won’t share exact numbers but my CTR (click thru rate) on Noomle pages is closing in on 5% and my average EPC (earnings per click)  is approximately $.35/click.  Compare that to my Sedo averages of 1% CTR and a nickel a click (EPC), moving my parked portfolio to Noomle is a no brainer.  These stats are still very low compared to results that some on the members on Noomle’s forum are reporting.  Keep in mind, I have not spent time doing any optimizing or adding fresh content to the Noomle sites I’ve created so far.

There are two memberships types at Noomle.com – Contributor or Non-Contributor (free membership).  The free Noomle membership gives all of the tools you need to get as many domain names as you want monetized using their system (read complete details).  The best part about Noomle is that they do NOT take a revenue share, so all of the revenue you generate from adsense is yours, paid to you directly from Google (or ypn/Yahoo if that’s your thing).  Of course, contributing members have worthwhile perks like:  Full access to new and premium templates, bulk functions, empower articles with keywords,  and more!  Minimum contribution to gain full access is $5 every two months.  In order to join Noomle, I believe you must also join the forum as well, it’s where you can make contributions.  Also, the forum is a great place to discuss and get support for your Noomle questions.

Right now, I only have a couple dozen domains monetized using Noomle.  It is more time consuming than parking, which is why I don’t have 100 Noomle pages up yet.  So, do you Noomle?  Feel free to share some Noomle sites of your own in a comment here.
