    I have had a site up since ~2008. The domain was aged well and had over 500 domains liking in, several thousand backlinks. The site ranked high in serps for a lot of keywords.

    The problem I ran into is that it was a humor/guy/adult site. So it was hard to monetize with the adult content and was running into issues where users would post copyrighted material ect....so I ended up shutting it down. It received quite a bit of traffic as well.

    So my question is I hate to let all the traffic/serp traffic go to waste. I should put up another site in it's place to capture all that and monetize it this time. Any ideas for a good site that would work with that domain?

    I'd put a site up to take advantage of the traffic. You might have to change the culture, but, that shouldn't be too hard.

    I'd get something up as fast as possible, just put some simple .html pages or a wordpress site up about guy stuff minus the porn.

    Why not just shut down user submissions or hold all submissions under moderation?

    You could put the site you had back up and shut off submissions.

    Or you could try to build content upon the "quota" name.

    Because they would funnel to a different site. There is no site loyalty when it comes to the male OT demo.
