E -Commerce singly/alliances/partnerships
My wife & I have a situation where we own a lot of good & great jewelry domain names. After trying to get interest from the jewelry industry for years on developing a linked network of landing sites without avail, we decided to do it ourselves. Since beginning last April I've launched 10 sites with good traffic after they have been online for several months. The sites are very targeted & many of the sites now are on the first three pages of many major search engines. At present I have targeted traffic between 600 -1000 visitors daily.
Based on ppc rates I believe that it would cost over $100K yearly just to get the existing traffic I've generated without cost except for my labor (I am not a web designer, programmer, etc. but I know the jewelry business). In addition to our existing sites,I have many sites to put up that will generate a lot more traffic. I believe the idea we've developed is an advanced model of cost efficiency as it is not affected by ppc pricing, spyware, affiliate problems concerning lost revenue (search on the office computer & buy on the home computer), etc.
Frequently I get requests to sell domain names but the prices offered aren't serious offers. I look at these domain names as commerical real estate.
Due to our ages 60+ we aren't interested in developing another business but would consider alliances with companies to further develop these assets either as a ecommerce program run by an alliance,leasing the domains, sell advertising, outright sale etc.
Any suggestions on finding businesses interested in helping develop profitable opportunites for all concerned?
