What about zero-click model of Elephant-traffic.com? It also seems to be interesting model in the future.

@Andrew

Very nice. I will say it again, small business understands paying once per year but will not PPC because of the technical nature of it. We sell direct on our own sites but in those regions we do not have people yet I am liking the sound of Octane.

@Brian Null

I can say without a doubt that the Smartname sites do rank and can raise income on a site. You got my digits and email, give me a shout and I will give you the scoop.

Interestingly, just checked my Octane account and they sold a fourth listing on StlDaycare.com. So that $200 number just went up.

follow up to Brian — of course part of the idea of SN Shops is that they can get search engine indexing, so even domains w/o traffic might work.

@ Brian – if they get traffic, you might try SmartName Shops. The use a Shopping.com feed that pays pay-per-click. The PPC is lower than what you get from Yahoo/Google, but the CTR should be higher.
