Fabulous is one of the best if not the best parking company. But, as always all names don't necessarily fit with one company. They are very attentive and professional as well!

Hi srigopaldaliya,

If those domains receive traffic that originates predominantly from India, it's probably best to monetize them with another program.

You should receive a response about your application after the weekend when our Account Reps are in the office.

Cheers,

Mike

Hi Mike - I'm trying to transfer some domains from GoDaddy to Fabulous (not the parking, as a registrar) and the email that Fabulous sent me to confirm has some mal-formed URLs in it; nothing comes up properly in the browser that will allow me to okay the transfer. You might want to have your techs take a look. I emailed a copy of what I got to my rep (Ben Stewart) as well.

Hi Sri Gopal,

Please send a list of your top 50 domains to support@fabulous.com and an Account Rep can review for eligibility. Please keep in mind that we are looking for English language generic/commercial domain names with type-in traffic. We do not accept TM/illegal domains.

All new applications will be reviewed today, so you should receive a response in the next 10 hours.

I have to say, I joined Fab not too long ago but I am already very impressed with everything they have to offer. Not only is their interface loaded with plenty of research tools, but their landers look terrific.

Here is a small sample of the pages I have parked with them which were completely optimized by their team with no intervention on my part whatsoever:

PokerPCGames.com
PortalCurrentEvents.com
777SlotMachines.com
MesotheliomaSurvival.com

I think those pages are not only attractive due to the pictures and colors used but the ads are perfectly targetted too. Can't wait for the indexing to start.

That's too bad. But maybe you need more than just a few good domains to be let in? Maybe Mike can review your application and give you suggestions?

~~~~~

On a lighter note.... I got my first monster click at Fab today!

$5.00 on a single click! WOOT!

Best click I have ever had on all the parking companies I have joined.

Well that's just.... Fabulous!

Layouts

Hi Mike

I like, and use, mainly two layouts and colors schemes. Sometimes when I change a layout for a name it seems to have more clicks over the next two days or so. (not mine as I never click on my own)

So I am wondering if it is just coincidence or does it improve click rates if you constantly change the layouts and colors.

Thanks...

PS...My revenue has actually gone up since parking has undergone major changes over the last couple of months. Keep up the good work!

Hi Bampa,

Thanks for the comments.

Naturally there are going to be some layouts and color combinations that perform better than others, but at the end of the day, each domain is different, so what works for one, isn't necessarily going to work for another.

I think the increase you are seeing when changing variations is most probably a coincidence. However, it could also be that, by changing the layout/color slightly each couple of days/weeks/months, may reduce the "parking page" fatigue that some landers experience.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that, everyone knows that there comes a point when most internet users are able to easily identify parked pages. They see the same thing over and over, and after time will wise up and no longer click on those pages.

Cheers,

Mike

Why not Mike?

Just because they see the page as a parked they go?

I am thinking if they want info they will look around. If they see revelent links they will be happy to click on them to learn something, no?

Pending Vs. Premium ads

Well, I guess after 6 months I should ask why half of my domains are premium and half are pending.....even though they ALL generate revenue.

From our experience, users tire of the seeing the same parking pages after an extended period of time. This is the reason we created the Fab+ program, which allows you to easily change the way your pages look easily and quickly.

What I'm talking about is the same landing page design for 1+ years. We found that our old Premium 4.0 landers were getting stale, so introduced graphic headers, then when they seemed to see a decline in CTR, we added Fab+.

pixelpadre, I would suggest contacting your Account Rep or support@fabulous.com, and they can help you out with the Pending domains.

Hi Mike,

that is very insightful and coming from a parking company is refreshing. It means extra work and effort for your team and if Fabulous is willing to do all that I know it has been tested.

I watch my traffic patterns real close. I can now use that information better and when needed change my templates. Damn nice to get all this updated information.
