Traffic Stats

I was on Compete.com today, checking out traffic statistics for popular websites, when I accidentally typed “Facebok” instead of “Facebook”. Although there’s nothing on Facebok.com, it is a really popular site: over 100,000 visitors last month! MySpac.com got over 200,000! I wonder how much they make on ad revenue.

And how about the tubing company that owns uTube.com? Over 1,000,000 visitors a month! Here are the December numbers from Compete.com:

facebok.com 148,083 17.1% 857.4% The number of people visiting a site.

utube.com 1,134,227 -2.0% 42.4%

I’ve got a new business model for anyone that wants it: find as many promising early stage startup companies as you can and buy “typo domains”. Then help those companies succeed. As the startup does well, more typo traffic flows to your advertising filled landing pages. It’s a win-win.

What’s the most popular “typo domain” you can find?
