Does anyone know exactly why they're transitioning from Yahoo to Google? I'm planning on moving my domains from ActiveAudience because of this change.

If namemedia owns Goldkey and they have for a year or so in my opinion they can do a hell of a lot better with customer service. I have requested help from them a hundred times and I never even get a single email. So long Goldkey.

Simple. They (NameMedia) think they'll make more money, since they think Google ads pay more.

I think not because of who pays more (actually Yahoo pays well for parked domains), but they are transitioning because of 1 or 2 click landers. Yahoo doesn't always allow 1 click landers.
