What's the best alternative to do?
I think it's better to buy an old domain with a generic name, which have already few months/years and start posting content and seo on it rather than creating a fresh domain? Am i right? I`m talking about money site, not any private network.
Also if you have any suggestions from where to get good aged domains.

    well.. firstly you need to make sure that your website content does belongs to that aged domain.. and you have to research that as well.. i would suggest that u go for the fresh domain.. and it will take time initially.. but.. at least it`ll be genuine.

    Actually you can buy an expired domain with a strong backlink profile and convert it to any topic you please and it will rank pretty well usually...IF it doesn't have skeletons in its closet. I've bought very expensive domains before, only to find out that they were penalized and simply refused to rank in the top 50. You really have to do your due diligence. Check the Wayback Machine and also look at all of its existing links to make sure there aren't sketchy links.

    Yes a good aged domain can work if:

    - It has a good number of relevant, authority backlinks
    - It has a high PR
    - It is a reputed domain (i.e. it enjoyed a good search ranking)

    I have been using PR Powershot by Walter to find high PR domains. A very good tool I must say

    An aged domain with niche relevant backlinks would be ideal and will get you ranking faster.

    Aged domain costs you much. I dont know how effective it is. But I have tried ranking a new domain and it ranked with in a month, of course it was keyword stuffed and very relevant to the business I was promoting.
