… I’m starting to do this with so many parts of my life.  I’m now doing it with my websites.  I think if you’ve been doing this long enough, you come to a point where you realize you can’t maintain 100’s of sites well.  You can start them, push them along with SEO for a bit, do some backlinks and let the little website go into the great beyond called the Internet and hope that you’re site will get visitors who will click and buy, click and click, click and subscribe, or whatever you’ve decided to do with that site.  If it works - that’s awesome.  I think for every “success” I’ve had - I’ve had many that were duds.

I fell into the whole - Adsense big payouts, so I bought domains with that in mind.  Only to realize that whatever it was I was doing, wasn’t getting me the elusive big payout.  Maybe I didn’t have the right technique… maybe there wasn’t the big payouts… I don’t know.  But chasing the dollar - which is what I’m in this for - didn’t pan out.

Also the fact that 2/3 of the domains/sites I built were fun to build - I love that part… the rest of it was so boring.  There was no way on earth I was ever going to be able to maintain them to a level that would see the rewards monetarily.  I also didn’t have the money to hire someone to slog through it for me.  So they got dusty sitting on the Internet shelf.

Now I’m letting go.

If I’ve not touched it in over a year - it’s going buh-bye.  So long.  Farewell.  I’m not bothering to let anyone know about the domains, I don’t make any money from them anyhoo, doing it the way I’ve been doing it.  Maybe I need to do a bit more investigating on how to make money off a domain name that has been registered for a couple of years… but you know what.  Not now.  Not really interested.  I’m just on the curve of letting go.

It actually feels pretty good.
