The same applies to all non-.com gTLDs by the way, including my favorite one - which you would never guess :-)

There are exceptions to most rules in domaining, but in this case you have to be really lucky to chance upon an available .net that makes you money just by parking it.

A strong keyword in .net is a prime candidate for traffic tasters. If it's still available, that probably means it's been tested for natural type-in traffic at least once and was found to be not worth keeping.




Thanks Mobi Cheap, that was basically what I thought too, but needed second opinions, and it's why I've hesitated to register a lot of good .net names.

I found a list of acronyms on a different thread that was helpful, but it was missing some of the common acronyms used when you view your parking stats at your parking company.

I particularly am interested in knowing not only the meaning or RPM, CTR and RPC, not just the literal meaning but what they actually mean to the parking company. For instance I see my RPM at $430 for one name then the CTR at 200%, RPC $0.22 and Revenue at $1.72. So I'm having a little difficulty making sense of this data.

Your input is much appreciated.

Chas
