I like to focus on building search engine traffic to my sites because once you have rankings you can usually sustain them with little effort and the traffic they send is very targeted. Some success is from sites I purchased which were ranking on the first few pages of Google and I built some great links to get them on the first page.

When you’re thinking about domain names for affiliate sites, its best to be as relevant as possible, but also choose something brandable. Relevant so that you get a small ‘boost’ from the search engines but also brandable becuase you want people talking about your project or trusting the name when they land on the site.
