Mortgage life insurance or mortgage protection insurance protects the family of the insured person and the mortgaged home. In case of death of the insured person, the death benefit provided by mortgage life insurance can be used by the beneficiaries to pay off the remaining balance of the mortgage, so that the home is not lost.

Most insurance companies specialize in providing insurance to a particular category of home owners, so  finding the best mortgage life insurance rates can be a time consuming process.

Cheap domain development

Monday, August 25th, 2008

With the decrease in parking revenues and increase in lawsuits against PPC companies like Google for domain parking, many large domain portfolio owners are forced to develop their domain names or will have to let the domains expire.

Developing a domain, so that it can be monetized using PPC or affiliate programs is both time consuming and expensive, since a lot of traffic is needed to earn a significant income. Building mini sites and monetizing them using programs that offer a fixed monthly payout like Money4Banners is a good option. Though the amount is not much, if you have many websites which pay you $10 a month, the earnings can be substantial.

Interesting summary of  non-Google monetization options .  I have not tried some of  them,  will sign up with them soon.  Many of the other advertising companies do not have sufficient inventory.

Aeiou - expensive domain development

Sunday, August 3rd, 2008

Since parking revenues have been falling, many companies are offering domain development services for large domain holders. Aeiou is one such services, but it is very expensive, $250 for just a 5 page website. The sample website seems to well designed, but content could be improved.

Also monetizing the website using Adsense only seems to be a risky strategy. Based on my experience last year, Adsense is not a very reliable source of revenue. Other programs may pay less, but income is more consistent. For Adsense, Google may start serving PSAs (Public Service Ads) any time and the time and money so spend getting traffic to your website is wasted.

For most of my developed domains, domain registration, hosting and development costs are less than $12/year , so my break even point is much lower. This service Aeiou seems to be useful only for expensive domain names.
