What is a domain name?
We like to compare a domain name to a piece of real estate. A domain is a destination on the Internet, which is typically identified by a word or, group of words, followed by an extension (.com, .net, .org).

What is domain development?
It starts with a process by which a domain name has a website created for people to visit. A domain developer would then add relevant content and build connections with other sites to increase the number of people who visit the site. It is an evolving process that takes time and effort to be successful.

What is domain parking?
In essence you redirect your domain name servers to a parking company, in turn they deliver advertisements to the domain and split the revenue with the domain name owner. This is very popular with large domain portfolio owners who are likely not to develop.
top 
 
What is domain optimization?
A process which improves the quality of the domain through focusing on usability and positioning content in locations more likely to return higher revenue.
top 
 
Why should I develop my domain name(s)?
We feel you should develop a domain name if you are passionate about the subject matter the domain represents. You should develop if you wish to benefit from higher revenues and are patient enough to let it build over time.

What is the typical revenue share offered by parking companies?
We understand the typical revenue share is around 80% of what third-party advertising networks payout. In some cases this is lower, in others higher.
top 
 
What is my revenue share should I signup?
It depends on the nature of the agreement between BuildsOut.com and the domain name owner.  Our packages offer various revenue share plans with domain name owners. The revenue shares range between 50% and 100%.
top 
 
If I signup are there any up front fees?
It depends on some factors. Looking at our packaged plans there are build outs available for $325 up front. However, it is not a requirement to pay anything up front and still have your domain participate in our program.

How do I signup?
You may select a plan on our plans page, or use the contact form linked in the header and footer to inquire about alternative plans.
top 
 
How do I point my domain to BuildsOut.com?
Once we are ready to go live with your website you will need to enter your registrar control panel and point the domain name to custom name servers. Our name servers are:

ns1.buildsout.com
ns2.buildsout.com

What are Name Servers?
Simply put, name servers are used to point to the server in which the web pages will be hosted on. Typically, people use a hosting company to display their websites. The host provides the name servers.

What types of plans does BuildsOut.com offer domain name owners?
The current packages can be viewed here. These plans do not represent the only path for a domain name owner to use BuildsOut.com for domain development. Contact us if you would like to discuss an alternative relationship.
top 
 
If I don’t like the plans offered can we negotiate an alternative plan?
Absolutely. The plans we list are available to those who qualify, but we are open to discuss other options with potential clients if they are very passionate about building out their domain(s)
top 
 
Are there contracts involved with signing up?
Not necessarily. It depends on the nature of our agreement. All non-packaged plans will require a contract. If the client pays the up front development fee of $325 then no contract is required.
top 
 
When do I get paid?
We will negotiate this with the individual domain name owner. We will not be managing large domain portfolios and we understand different clients like different payment schedules. If a specific payment plan is not in place we will payout every (30) days on accounts with more than $25 accrued.
top 
 
How do I get paid?
You will be sent a check.
 top
 
Where do you get the “fresh and unique” content for my domain?
We have a number of resources for creating content. By our definition, “fresh” content can be provided through the addition of an RSS feed or other source, which rotates the content on a regular basis (usually a daily basis). “Unique” content is researched, created, and displayed only on your website. We have experienced staff and contractors who provide the unique content for our client sites. Oh, and you can also provide content for your pages!

Which advertisers does BuildsOut.com use?
We will be using a combination of Google and Yahoo! as advertising channels. In addition, we will be implementing a system, which allows us to have advertisers bid on keywords that we set the minimum price on. There will be more to follow on this program.
top 
 
How does BuildsOut.com generate traffic for my domain?
We generate traffic through good old fashion elbow grease. We do all the heavy lifting, design, search engine optimization, keyword and content building, and back linking. We analyze your domain as it is being developed, so we can assess what is working and what is not. We make adjustments as needed, creating an environment for your domain to be noticed.
top 
 
How is BuildsOut.com better than parking?
The answer to this question is relative to your goals as a domain name owner. If you have domain names representing subject matter you are passionate about or have a good domain that already generates good profit when parked, then our program may be for you. If you can fill a niche space, which is relatively untapped, development likely is the better choice. If you are a large domain name portfolio owner then we feel parking is probably the better choice. In any case developing a domain name will definitely lead to higher revenue and we share more of the revenue with our clients.

How is BuildsOut.com better than other domain development companies?
We feel the most flexible and comprehensive domain development company operating today is BuildsOut.com.
