ND 0 cent clicks!

The NameDrive spring bonus is sounds good, but what is up with the falling CTR % and 0 cent clicks?

Yesterday one of my names had 2 clicks worth ZERO cents!?!

Why are they serving ads that will pay us nothing?

Would it not stand to reason that the ad should not be served?

I would rather have ONE ad on my page than 10 ads with 9 of them not paying me anything

i agree... although i haven't received any $0.00 clicks, those ads should be taken off. my lowest so far has been $0.02 :(.

i have .01 cents, .04 cents click and my highest is .47 cents all from LLLL.com.
my .cc is .11 cents click and I have never received .00 cent click

I've never earned more than $1.00 click with ND.

With Parked my lowest per click is .05 cents and $2.11 per click is the highest

Same here. Four days ago, I got a $0.00 click and two $0.01 clicks on ND. At first, I thought it was some weird default amount that would change in 24-48 hours, but it didn't!

I don't get it. :(

As tetrapack says, this really is the 3rd or 4th time about this.
We display results as Google show them to us. Their lowest bid price is 1 cent and, if these ads get clicked, then there is obviosly not that much to share around, especially at this time of year when there is a long bank holiday and few people are online compared to other times of the week.
In this case, I would recommend trying a new keyword or, if you'd like more help with your account, contacting us at [email protected]
I agree that 0 cent clicks are not nice to get - if you look at the RPM, they are actually above 0 cents, but if Google pay us under 1 cent for that click, we cannot pass on more than one cent to the user.

The interesting thing is that in my several years of using Adwords I have NEVER been charged 2-3 cents for an Adwords click.:|.

Ed- I'd not disagreeing with what you have said, but it sure seems "funny" when you see it from both sides. :-/

Well.. a few days ago, both mine and my friend's Adsense reported 0 cent clicks. I had 2 clicks and my friend 3. Both of us got 0 :( .

As much as I hate to do this, thanks in part to another NPer, I have tried a new parking company with fantastic results.

I have kept most of my domain names with NameDrive for the last 4-6 months, and lately the clicks have just become so little it doesnt seem worth it. I was even considering just posting for sale pages instead.

I had gotten several $0.00 clicks on a few of my domain names, and thats just rediculous. Im sorry, but thats enough for me.

I moved over to ParkingPanel with phenomenal results. I only moved a few domain names, and one of the domains that consistently would get a .10 click here and there, made $7.00 in 2 clicks - this was on Saturday. Last night, after seeing the results, I haved moved my entire portfolio to this company. There parked pages look phenomenal (IE: Religion.fm)

Although they are tougher to get approval through - According to them it helps to have a refferal. So, if you do wanna give them a shot - use this link:

domainspade i noticed the same thing
Removed all my domains from namedrive.com last month when i saw that the clicks are worse even from sedo

Do you have any info about parkingpanel.com
Anyone with additional info/results ? (for example do they count unique clicks or not, make you sign a tax form .... )

Not sure on the specifics, but PM me for a refferal link, on their site they suggest this will help get approved.

There templates are gorgeous too - check out (Religion.fm or ZumaSushi.com)
So far, im super impressed. Considering Ive only had them a few days, what Ive seen so far has caused me to migrate everything to them.

If these results (high CPC rates) really last, this could be a wonderful domain parking solution. However, from past experience, it has been seen that many parking service providers start off with a bang, get people to sign up, and then it all boils down to the same old low rates.

I'm hoping PP really remains different from the others.

Yes you're right but in any case maybe even if this true with PP (even i hope not) we can exploit these few months and not keep our domains to poor services like namecheap (as it is lately)

I think it's simple!

If you compare Two domains, at two different parking companies, you will see why people are making a ton more money. One site makes you Want to Click, the other Makes you want to Leave. You make the choice.

www.Religion.fm Looks like a "Real Site"

www.PageDigger.com Looks like an "Ad Site"

You guys should try namedrive vs skenzo feed / or domain sponsor. Namedrive gave me like .03 CPC, but skenzo and namedrive are around .25!

That's awful! I've heard a lot of 1 cent clicks but $0 per click is just wicked.
