Help Recently Purchased Domains
I recently purchased two domains:
http://z-blackfox.info
http://freeinternetpokergame.info
They were expired domains with a healthy amount of links still coming into them, but now I'm not exactly sure should be my next step. Both have a starting PR 1, but other than slowly put some content on them, I'm just not for sure how to handle them.
Does anyone have any advice on if I should slowly develop each one, or capitalize on the already now backlinks.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.

how about recreating the previous content these sites had? i mean if u have some back links already, most likely people will be looking for the previews description the back links gave.
however, since u only have PR1 after a minimum of one year (since a domain could nt have been registered for less) means u dont have all that much of back links... so if u have no particular content for them, turn them to a directory... preferable with same "keywords" as ur domain has (i.e. fox, black, games, free, poker etc) good luck!

Thanks for the suggestion Lorelei! Most of the incoming links for z-blackfox are all Russian, so I have no clue. lol

I've decided to sell both of them off. Currently freeinternetpokergame.info is posted as an auction at another site, with no offers yet. The auction will last until next friday, so if anyone is interested please PM me.
Thanks.

There is another idea to park domain with adsense.

I'd go to www.archive.org, find the old content, repackage it and put it back up with ads.
How much traffic do the domains actually get.

Both have been parked for a few months now, so the residual traffic is basically gone. I think I'll just park them myself, tuck them away, and possibly use them for a future project.
Hey, it never hurts to have a few domains laying around....does it?

Well, no biters. So, I decided to add some value to the site. I have opened a web directory. It's already started paying off, so if anyone is interested please feel free to visit and see what I've done.
I'm hoping that this will build enough value that in the near future someone will buy it out.
Thanks for the suggesitons.

*Awarding rep points*
Seriously I think .com is the best. The others tend to be less credible.

John, I agree with you 100%. This was most definately a learning experience for me. Needless to say I am a newbie when it comes to domain investing and basically I feel I was ripped off by Recycled Traffic.
You live and you learn. Therefore, I try to make the best with what I have.

.info has been free for some time like the free .be domains, but .com not
the .be sites may disappear next year, it is trustless.

I am sure I read somewhere that .info were quite valuable.
