parking question


i have some parked domains and a website that gets 1000 visitors every day..
my question is like that if i put a link of one of my parked domains on my website
the traffic that will come from there will be legal? or its just like advertising?
how does the parking companys know when this links are backlines or advertise?


Thanks,
Amir

Well every parking company has its own verification routines
There is no solid explanation of what every company think is a backlink or advertisement
Usually when your income will increase will go and dig it more

If it's legal depends on your parking service's Terms of Service (TOS). Most of them specify that you cannot advertise or promote your parked domains in any manner including getting links from other sites.

But not all have this rule. I would check their TOS and if it's not clear, contact them via email and ask them. It's not worth taking a chance, because if they don't like it they may close your account and I hear that sometimes a domain can get "blacklisted". That is, if there is a domain connected with fraud, the domain name may be shared with other providers and none of them will let you park with them. If this is true it gets worse, because you may also have trouble selling the domain then.

So I would check around if you want to get more traffic to your domains and find a provider that allows some forms of linking or advertising.

Your other option is to host a site on your domain, add some content and use AdSense or find an affiliate program on the same topic of your domain and try making money that way. Then you can link to it and promote it under the AdSense TOS.
