Google's not crazy about keyword stuffing, true, and I think to some degree that's responsible for the "-950" penalty, where your site ends up on the last page of results for the search queries you're most counting on.
But the other thing to think about is focus. If you try to do too much on one domain, with a multitude of keywords trying to cover every base, your ads will probably be less focused and specific, and I believe the user that stumbles across your parked domain may be less likely to see what he's looking for, and therefore to click. I try to keep it to one single or two-word keyword (phrase) per domain.
Hello, Its a great Post.... And its good everyone could share there own views.
I would like to share My viewpoints on domain parking optimisation.
When i register a domain i really research word and try to get the excat keyword domain. So before i research i check which keyword pays how much and the tools mostly i use is adword tool. and it has always helped me..
I know my domain is new and i wont get any traffic straight of.. but i know i have this domain for 1 long year .... and i really work on keywords for each of my domain very hard.. i have been getting $15 to $30 a click also some or the time...... @ domainsponsor mostly.. which i feel pays really well for your financial domains.....
And my domains mostly consist of Finance Domains.... And thats the only success ladder for me...
The thing is you really need to optimise your domain very well.. On a 2 click parked page.. We see so many categories.. And sometime it tend to happen that if our keyword and the domain is related to XYZ but the user has clicked ABC keyword.. or supposing you have got a domain related to Refinance loan.. and use may click something like finance or other than that.. And we may end up getting less per click..
I really check and have the excat keywords related to that name... When i optimise domains in domainsponsor i add 4 keywords. which gets the best result..
People who have little traffic comming daily for them its ok.. But people like me who register new domain and then optimise.. So for me every visitor comming to my site is very important.. i know its for every one but for domains with reall less traffic its more important..
So if you want to get success with domains with less traffic...then you need to have really good paying keyword domain.. Thats the way to success. and it has worked for me..
I register new domains.. optimise my domains and just hope 10 clicks in 1 yr would be more than enough for me.. Coz i know i would make around $15 to $20 from that many clicks and even money when i get $5 to $10 per click... so could take average of $20.. thts pretty good investment atleast for me...
So i feel its all depeds on keyword If you have Less traffic @ ur domain. But with yahoo Feeds you could really do even better. coz you have ability to add content, meta tags and lods of additional options which makes your website look like a real one and it increase the chances of visitors visiting your domain would stay more.... And from last few months i have been using this stuff and i have seen a real good improvement in traffic as well as the CTR..
You could make money from parking with less traffic.. or say very less traffic also.. just good optimisation and good keywords would help a lot..
Its just the Game of keywords if you got less traffic domains
Something I have been thinking about recently is that there is really more than one type of keyword that needs to be taken into consideration when optimizing a parked domain.
There's the keyword you want to use with the parking company, in order to attract relevant (and hopefully high paying) ads.
But then there are also the keywords that your users are likely to be typing in to the search engines to find whatever it is that you've got.
These are not necessarily the same.
For example: if you have a domain that deals with loan or debt consolidation, you probably want a keyword like "debt consolidation" in order to get the specific ads that you want.
But if you think about how users actually search, there's probably only a small percentage of them that would think to type in "debt consolidation" into Google. More likely they would type in something like "lower bill payments" or "get out of debt", because it's in those terms that they think of their particular situation. So your "user" keywords for debt consolidation would "lower bill payments" and/or "get out of debt."
In fact, if you have access to search data, you'd be amazed how many people type full questions into Google, as though it were Ask.com - "how can I lower my bill payments?"
That's why it's really good to have the ability to edit page titles , meta description tags, and optimally, your own content - because THAT is where you want to put in the keywords that the users will actually use. Not necessarily the keyword you tell the parking company to use in order to get the right ads.

So, Netmeg, which parking companies let you do this?
Here's an important tip, it's up to you to figure it out so you can see the maximum benefit...
I have found that certain "Maybe all" keywords pay more on certain days of the week. I have found the answers to a couple of them but have a lot more work to do. The reason this is important for me is that I can make adjustments accordingly...
yeah, I try to do what Getadd' does - for me keywords in the domain name are very important, I do a fair bit of research. I use the free version of 'web ceo' - you can download it from webceo.com - It not only tells you the most current keywords and their ranking but shows you the top sites that are using those exact keywords. I have also learned that google take a lot of notice of keywords in domain names especially with the adsense. I've had some experiences where I've had a domain name with a word in it that has more than 2 meanings and I get adsense adds automatically generated for the wrong meaning. So that's something else to think about when choosing a name. Also good idea to keep abbreviations and synonyms in mind - I think search engines are paying more attention to synonyms these days than they used to.
Along with many other factors, I recently learned that PPC providers like adwords, adcenter, Yahoo like you to have a contact link on the page your driving traffic to. This is one of the things that when combined with other adjustments you've made will help your ad to get a better placement at a lower cost.
Hello Everyone,
I see there aren't any recent posts, so I'm hoping to revive this thread with my questions. First, I've got my few domains with parked.com, I do use their advanced options which allow me to put in keywords in the meta tags and title tag. What I'm not really understanding is if parked.com pages actually get indexed and if the keywords I'm entering in these areas actually make a difference since there is field named "keyword" where you're only supposed to put one keyword as I just learned.
The other question I have is regarding adsense and adwords, am I understanding this correctly? Not all ads displayed with either program pay the same correct? I've used Adsense for a short time and unsuccessfuly, and I know that it pays you when people click on ads they display on your site when you sign up for the program, so are all ads displayed worth the same? But with Adwords I understand that you're buying traffic to redirect to your site or parked site, but there's a lot more to this than what I know isn't there? Because I read stories about how people bid from .05 cents to $1.00 for the clicks that will take people to where they want, but is this only controlled by the amount of bidding or is there something else to this scheme? Obviously if the redirect does not translate into a click or clicks you still get charged the money you bid by google, right? It's good to be google.
Last thing, what parking companies pay 5 or 15 dollars a click? I just read this entire thread and I thought I read that somewhere.
I read a study about this (sorry, don`t know where) what was very clear.
The result was that it had no better results with contact/about/privacy policy links onpage because there are to much advertisers where don`t know that. SEM is not the same like SEO and the "secrets for the professionals". SEM has the goal to be available also for non-pro advertisers.
About what I am not sure is how "domain for sold" links/text take effect.
Does anybody know more about that?
hiya,
i hope this hasn't been covered, but when setting up minisites for 'DIY parking' (with content etc.) - anyone found a way to get yahoo, google or other click ads that say "sponsored listings", like the parked, namedrive etc. all have?
i'm trying to avoid the "ads by google" and "ads by yahoo" tags - "sponsored listings" instead goes nicely under the radar.
or is that something kept for the big customers - "adsense for demains" and all?
hi from oz.
This is all very interesting as although a newbie i have a few domains parked at pp and parked. I have made many mistakes and have domains which i thought were great but seem to be pretty poor. I am not sure if it is because of me using low traffic keywords or simply because the domain itself is useless. Knowing what the available tools are for optimizing and how to use them is a never ending challenge.
I think that there is a great job opportunity for someone with the right experience to research, advise and tweak parked names for customers. I certainly would be interested, especially since i am in the bush and my little pc is on dialup of 28kbps and takes half an hour to load a page which by that time i've forgotten why i went there.
Sorry if this is a little away from the good advice. Just been thinking about this for a while.
They will come back and re-index your site which will be a parked page, rankings drop and search traffic stops. Parked pages are not kicked out of Google's index, they just get extremely low rankings.
I tested this a few times with an extremely popular minisite of mine. With the minisite, it gets piles of search traffic. Park it and it gets piles of clicks for about 2 days, then it is re-indexed by google and traffic nearly stops. Checking with the site:domain.com search, it can be seen that the domain is clearly still in the index and what is indexed is the parking page.
.... and i really work on keywords for each of my domain very hard.. i have been getting $15 to $30 a click also some or the time...... @ domainsponsor mostly.. which i feel pays really well for your financial domains.....
but them $15.00 clicks are mighty nice.
