I have yet to see one Parking company using Overture, that offers 1 click landers, if anyone knows of any, please post them.

We offer one click landers, but not on all domains. It's a decision that Yahoo makes on their end.

I seem to do the best at Parked with my low bid / high converting names (video games for example). At a place like ND I'd get 1 visit and one $.09 click. At Parked, I get 1 visit and seven $.09 clicks. Turns an otherwise reg fee name into one I'll renew.

Indeed, and makes you wonder what ND does with all those other clicks?

Does Parked.com has any restrictions on categories such as: adult, casino, etc?

Do they pay good for these categories?

I can't say much about the payout, as I've only been with them a few days, but they definitely have the most "adult" adult landers I've seen (), so I don't think there would be any particular restrictions...

Well, I just finished a little "test run" through some other parking co's (including RevenueDirect and ParkingPanel) after a little slump in earnings at Parked...so, revenue was even WORSE in the other companies and PARKED.COM is back on track now with overall revenue...they are HANDS DOWN the BEST overall parking company out there right now...and unless Bodis, iMoDo, or some other super great new company starts up...PARKED.COM is #1
...
And Donny offers the best service you can get anywhere!

I just signed up for Parked and dropped almost 20 domains into it 2 days ago. I'll let you all know how it goes. Revenue seems to be doing well in only 2 days >.>

After all the fanfare died down, Parked did not deliver for me and the 650 domains that I moved there temporarily. I moved them back to Sedo two weeks later and after a bit of optimization I was able to increase my revenue at Sedo substantially. If you want to experiment and are willing to risk losing revenue, try Parked and decide what's best for you. When spoken against, Donny becomes ironic and insulting. Another reason why I prefer Sedo: they diffuse arguments by being attentive and polite & fix issues.

Beware of these that praise Parked and offer...affiliate codes for Parked.

I was wondering when Acroplex would post. I have said on many occasions that not all domain portfolios work with one company. Some domains require a 1 click lander because of what they are and because I can't guarantee all domains will have a 1 click lander you have to use a AFD feed from Google which is Namedrive, Sedo, RevenueDirect, streamic, fabulous, and I'm sure I am missing some others as well. Every person has to decide which company(s) is best for them based on many factors. Sedo worked better for Acroplex, and that's great. I personally have some traffic going to Sedo until next Tuesday myself for testing purposes.

I don't know who runs http://www.parkfight.com/, but they currently say that we pay the most of all of the parking companies. But again that is for their portfolio and for that time period. Every portfolio will be different.

Donny, if you're suggesting that I am the only one who had negative results with Parked, you're attempting to perpetuate the same myth that lasted 22 pages at DNF, where many people agreed with my findings. The truth is, you deserved the backlash from that thread - including your sockpuppet minion, Kelly Pitts - and the attitude you display towards these that tried Parked and had poor results. I suggest that you improve not only the service you offer at Parked but also your personal manners as well.

IMHO

Not all parking are created equal.

I've got some domains across other PPC but north american and european traffics are all fine with me using parked service. I will list the major one here to prove my point. Don't take it as self advertisement because I know you guys know this business already.

Parked - I've got the following names doing well e.g. DCweb.com, DrComfort.com, Life.NU, etc.

TrafficClub - got some names work well e.g. Randompage.com, etc

Namedrive - this is a good example of domain that doesn't work in other ppc but well in name drive .e.g xanado.com and other asian domains.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=326844

DomainSponsors - my financial domains whose traffic coming from asia.

I stop using sedo years ago so I can't provide a good example for them.

This is just a good example that you need to manage your domains to maximize your revenue. This is not park it and forget it approach.

Hope this help other investors.

Good to see you here acroplex.

Regards,
em

Acroplex - I'm not saying you are the only person who has had a negative impact when they move domains to Parked, I think I said that in my last point in a round about way. I have close to a thousand domains that I move from parking company to parking company to compare the results to our own system to see if somebody is making more money than we can make ourselves. And there are times when we make less and when that happens we try to see if we can make some improvements/changes to our system.

You can ask around on many occasions I have told people that money is money, that if we can't monetize a domain better than x so move it back. There is no reason for me to try and BS anybody.

I really do wish you luck with Sedo, they have a good program and the company is run by some good people. I had planned on going to the Sedo Partner Forum right before the Targeted Traffic conference, but I had to cancel today because of a meeting.

If I didn't say it before I am sorry that you and Doc Com didn't get the same results that others are getting or that you were expecting.

Donny

This thread is whether Parked offers what they claim they do. My personal experience and that of others - sorry Donny, Doc Com was not the only one that had no results with Parked, he was probably the one that dared raise his voice as much as I did - is that Parked does not deliver as they claim they do. And that's what matters when us domain owners send our traffic to parking companies.

Not sure if anyone can help me with this:

one of my domains at parked.com is getting 100% chinese traffic with 54.55% CTR. I'm almost certain that this CTR could actually be higher if the lander would be served based on language analysis. If traffic comes in from Germany, make it German, if it comes from Japan, make it Japanese language landers.

Does parked have this feature and i just happened to miss it?

If not, would this be something to look into? I'm relatively certain that everyones CTR would improve if the sites would be served in the user's native language....

Donny, your take on that?

Well, I see that some of my parked sites are in Dutch.

For example -> http://u2eb.com/

Is it also in Dutch when you look at the site?

Maybe I can share.

Parked feed is provided by Yahoo, they only allow North America and Europe. Asian traffics is not allowed though you have the option to redirect them from other domain.

Ofcourse Donny will confirm this.

Ok, interestingly enough, my 100% chinese traffic domain is actually showing revenue. Not sure how to understand this then...
Thanks for sharing, though.
