It honestly seems like a good service. I don’t know if I would personally use it, but I can definitely see it’s benefit. Yeah, you could do it yourself for free, but this will save you time and let you do something with a domain that is doing nothing. It’s a temporary solution, but still cool. If I had money, I’d try it.

I had a think about this myself, then decided to at least generate a simple template for my own use. I've got Wordpress MU installed with a simple theme, meaning I just have to create a little content and some backlinks and I've got something going. The theme is just like the aeiou one, but without a header image and I can adjust the colours in the wordpress admin panel for each site.

I feel that this is a great way to get customers to rank immediately, rather than building from scratch, so I’m all for it. It will not be to everybodies liking though, that much is obvious…

I read both the ‘rant’ and ‘counter rant’, which made for quite a good read! Really at the end of the day if the client is happy with the service provided and the price then I cant see what the problem is.

For me the creation of the site and some content is relatively simple. I can just throw up a wordpress install with a nice theme in minutes, then pay a writer for a few articles.

The harder part is finding the relevant links to start getting some ranking for the domain.

$250 for aeiou.com is surely expensive for a free template, 5 page content and some links.

I can try your challenge to get this done for less than $250. Its very easy.

If you want to try, pls drop me an E-mail.

I can certainly see the appeal of this type of service, saves time, gets things up and running quickly and in this case has worked flawlessly resulting in a passive income stream.

So far as linkbuilding – I have a site I will start putting some money into and am looking into paying for a linkbuilding campaign.

Content i will take care of myself but does anyone have any strong recommendations on where to find best value for money?

Flawless logic in this I feel, having a functioning domain of some sort is much more sellable. It’s the same principle as when people prepare or stage their home for a viewing to help sell it Or a car dealer gets you to sit in the car, you have to lead the mind of the buyer.

This is indeed the right decision, it will help to achieve good results in a short time and with minimal costs.

Put it this way you will never make a lot parking unless you get lots of type in traffic or rank for a term which gets a decent amount of traffic. BUt I must admit I like your idea of putting your domain on AEIOU to gain credibility and a little bit of traffic – that’s a good move.
