I used to ignore 404 “site no longer exists” websites I’d stumble upon online. I viewed them as roadblocks.
I’d back button and dig deeper elsewhere in my research.
Then it hit me.
In simple terms,what are 404 ’site no longer exists’ sites?
They’re abandoned websites. They’re abandoned domain names.
They’re acquisition targets.
Most importantly, they’re acquisition targets *before* they hit the open market on TDNAM or Snapnames.
And since they’ve been abandonded, chances are you can acquire them on the cheap.
If the site has traffic, inlinks, and respectable topic rpc (revenue per click from adsense), it’s worth your time to investigate.
don’t let these suckers slip through your fingers!
They’re passive income waiting to work for you…

Actually I’ve read that some ISPs sell their server logs of 404 requests to domain tasters. The tasters pay big bucks for this.
