Default Your .com.au Domain Intentions

What do you do with your .com.au domains? Do you park them and hope to monetise the type in traffic that way? Do you develop them into sites/communities and make money through advertising and affiliates? Or are you one to just buy a domain and sell it for a profit?

I myself love to develop, its always good to see a site youve created, and then watch the traffic come through.

I like to develop, more now as a hobby than anything else. I own about a half dozen domain names and really only have aspirations for one of them at this moment.

Although, with the right marketing I have two potentially viable domains. One for the private rental market, http://www.myhouse4rent.au.com and another aimed at the webhost community, http://www.westwebz.com (and http://www.westwebz.com.au). Both are a work in progress and as time permits I'll develop them further.

Good to see other developers out there, i wish you luck for those sites nick. I have developed quite a few sites over my time, with my first real baby being http://www.supercarnews.com, I have been looking at redeveloping it into a much larger site for some time, hence not updating it in a while, but things just keep coming along. I also like to make smaller niche sites which rank well in the search engines for semi-competitive terms.
