CB + Domain STats

I have a domain that was registered in 1999.
It has a PR of 5. No content - but over the last 10+ years it has/had great traffic which is why it's got such a high PR rank.

It's been redirected to bigger company site for a few years now.

Obviously to use it for CB I would have new content there. Domain name would not be niche related.

Good combination?

You can drive thousands of high quality clicks to irrelevant product and it will never sell while a few clicks to something targeted will convert very well. Pick something that's in your domain's niche or demographic.
