There's nothing in the rules about parked sites. You could probably link to a normal parked domain if you really wanted.
I've had my domains listed (half of them links) in my sig for about a week now with no comments...
I know parked sites (that are linked) in sig's can be a violation of some parking programs TOS's but wasn't sure about what the policy for was here at NP for them.
I have about 1000 domains, most doing fine on SedoPro,ND, and TClub.
I have some generic type domains w/o many type-ins that could benefit I hope from your program. I wanted to know however if it would be possible to exchange some of the JPGs on your site for other pics, a bit less 'racy'.
Namely: your "Style" pic at the bottom of each page, the Poker pic, the "Woman pic" .. and a few other. Also, is it possible to control the 'top stories' links?
For example, under Women .. I get this as top stories:
I'm not speaking for all domainers, but this is not what I want to serve my visiters. Your system is very inviting, though .. and I would otherwise like to try it. Please inform. Thanks, VRC

Im not sure what photos youre regarding as "Racy" VRC, I tried my hardest, even with the "adult" photos, to remain if you like, non-offensive. I personally dont find any of the images Racy, but that may be just me.. Perhaps others here might like to comment as to what they think about the images..??
I noticed that also... There is a problem trying to "control" the top stories, as all of them are simply autogenerated Overture searches based upon the most popular searches relevant to your keyword. And as you might have guessed, sex related searches come out on top with the term "women".. I could change the Keyword/s for the "Women" link to something that wouldnt generate these overture suggestions - so i'll give it some thought.
No sweat VRC, as ever and ive said this before, Im trying to develop a site that is for the benefit of the Domainer, rather than the parking company.. Im moving fast toward adding more skins, more control and less effort - but this will take a little time - Im even developing a links directory (using DMOZ.org as influence) and having adsense for domains as the body text on the pages, using some form of revenue sharing program.. I'll share the revenue probably based upon the users 1plus joining date and the amount of domains parked.. But you'll have to wait 8 weeks or so before this is properly installed and working.
-RJ- and I are also talking at the moment regarding a form of integration of sites but until this has been scripted and coded properly, I'll leave the flag waving till then.
Were also moving the site to a VPS in next 2 weeks, so this will allow users to do a NS change rather than have hand park each domain with URL forwarding.
Thanks for your quick response, Badger.
Re: the new suggested links for "Women", it is MUCH more professional, in my opinion. Remember, you can assume children will be viewing these pages .. and since it is a parking program .. children that did not INTEND to visit these minisites (and would perhaps not have been presented with 'nude women' as a top story .. which is sure to interest them). And then there are women who might not enjoy seeing such links, when not looking for them. And .. there are men like me .. who don't want to host such links.
Re: "Racy" .. I think it would be hard for everyone on this forum to come to an agreement on what is racy or not. It is a question of sexual mores. However, as a standard image .. I think the Poker image is not necessarily what you want to show. If people want "poker", they may not necessarily want to see some type of strip tease event going on on the page image. Yes, there ARE people sensitive to this. If they are looking for "adult' .. that boils down to their choice, but if they are looking for "women" or 'poker' .. why include sexual imagery and/or links?
I see you are in the middle of alot of other things .. but it would be nice, perhaps in the future to allow some type of customization of imagery, and links. On a one-to one basis .. or automated in some way. That would solve alot of these issues.
Thanks, and good luck going forward,
vrc

Of course, and never once did we set out offend or cause distress to any visitors to your pages - this was (and is) paramount in our thoughts. Obviously, although the links were somewhat off topic in their nature regarding links for 'women', they at least would have only opened news stories regarding "naked women" from bonafide RSS feeds...So it probably would have been tasteful nonetheless. Anyway, this is changed now, so np, and thanks for your suggestion
Well, Ive changed this image now, but again, I think you'd have to be pretty puritanical in your orientation if a thumbnail of an outline of a female body would cause offence.
The problem with allowing multiple automation, is that the database is only so big - with 10,000+ domains hosted, if we allowed multiple imagery, you'd possibly be talking a scary amount of images...
I really like the way the 1plus pages look for the sites I've parked there, but being pretty new at all this, I've got one question for you more experienced domain parkers: Does parking domains at something like this help my chances of selling my domains? It's nice making a little extra money in the clicks, but I'm mainly interested in selling my domains, not necessarily in getting as much PPC income as possible. I mean, it's great that I'd get into the search engines this way to bring more people in, but does that translate to more potential domain buyers? Or am I better off parking at Sedo (I still keep all my domains listed there, but right now the rest not parked at 1Plus are parked at NameDrive or TrafficClub), where my stats will be maintained along with the listing in such a way that people shopping for a domain can see its popularity more easily and therefore be more likely to be interested in buying it?
A question for those using CJ links for alternate ads. Are you submitting each domain you have parked to CJ for approval, or are you just using the link code from one account? A lot of CJ merchants manually approve sites and I wonder what their thoughts would be if their links were placed on sites they had not approved.
adsense is down right now so i can't check the clickage.
but traffic count is higher.
(i think probally because spiders and bots are filtered)
no doubt adsense will though.
but whether you use 1plus, sedo or soemwhere else., the addes exposure doesn't hurt.
almost any place beats sedo's ppc... but keep you domains listed at sedo.
try it for a month, don't liek it, move the domains back. no REAL harm done.
OK,
just set up my test domain.
Looks VERY good
But I have another thing, that already was adressed in former posts.
Possiblity to set NS.
It is a bit tricky, as I suppose implementing NS settings will cut 1Plus.net
profits drastically on medium/long term, as as Badger currently can/will profit
from traffic incomming over indexed domains, that already left the 1plus system.
But from the clients/domaineers point of view the forwarding has at least 3 negative points:
1) No real SE indexing of the domain in question (at maximum a framed forward is indexed)
2) No PR generation for the domain in question.
3) Not to forget the huge config work for the larger portfolio holders.
Don't understand me wrong, I love the concept, and the already implemented features.
So please take it as positive critics.
What I would like to know, is if it is planned or not to introduce the NS feature in the near future.
If YES I could wait and save the forward configs for hundreds of domains.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK !
PS:
I tried to implement a phpAds banner server in the top banner section, wothout sucess. To all URLs the prefix "http://1plus.net/domain.ext/" is added automatically which makes the ad display not function.
Is this a bug or intention ?
I have just forwarded one of my domains to 1plus.net/mydomain/ but it is still parked at Sedo. (domain servers set to sedo) Is this O.K. or should I remove it from Sedo parking? Sorry if this question has been covered somewhere else on this thread, there are so many pages to search through. The Google adsense ads on 1plus are excellent for my domain, but I'm afraid maybe some of the same ads are on my Sedo parked page. Please advise.
Thanks!!
Installing the NS change feature simply means a change of host and an upgrade to a VPS/VDS..Which will happen real soon...
As normal, with our 'couldnt be fairer' policy, even domainers who have moved their domains to another provider still receive the revenue from their indexed domains (thanks to 1plus) regardless that they choose to park elsewhere...
Incidentally, no-one has mentioned the column change on news 'evening' page that advertises the users other "top" domains.. [see, told you the 'top' button in your admin panel was eventually going to do something]
And, thx to whoever asked for a mail 'opt-in' feature on their pages, I for one, already have 150 email addresses subscribed to my various sites....
True, didn´t realize this at first sight
I am a bit retard sometimes ;/
PS:
I saw that if you use the plain forward feature, or
dead links from elsewhere it end up at other account.
E.G: www.Domain.com - works fine. www.Domain.com/formerpage.html
ends up at www.1plus.net/Domain.com//formerpage.html
seems the generated second "/" in the forwarding settings provokes this.
GREAT !!!!!
Remember to enable wildcard subdomain traffic and you are my personal HERO and NP "member of month"
