I only send traffic to the rich countries. After that I ensure that the referral contain "google.com, yahoo.com, msn.com, or live.com. If referrals were others it'll go somewhere else.
Also obtaining some traffics from video and images google search by hot linking images and videos seems help too.
After all this long humiliating moments. I can only say thanks to Parked.com.
Why?
Well, let me tell you something, 3 months ago I got problems in my server. An idiot techie in the hosting companies insist that I used too much memory (I am not) and insist that I go to their PS program.
I insist that I didn't but that asshole didn't believe me. I said that if I am using too much memory why can't I just rent 2 regular accounts? He said that customers cannot open 2 accounts.
Arguing after arguing nothing get solved. That techie has ego problem.
I asked for a permission to move to regular shared hosting for just 2 days to proof that my scripts are working fine. The techie goes the extra mile ensuring that it'll never happen no matter what.
Meanwhile, I got a notice from parkingpanel.com that my account is disabled because I committed fraud. I was furious. I ain't do no fraud or arbitrage.
I argued and argued, didn't work.
Then another horror came down. I started getting traffic score at parked.com. At first I got 5. Then it drops to 4. Then my account manager Baron Desmond says that investigation will come and stuff. I pleaded to be given a chance. I park directly at parked.com (using name server change) so that Parked.com can check that most of my referrals are indeed from search engine.
Yea we got that checked. My referrals are indeed search engine. The thing is TQ drops even further to 1. Quite possibly because the traffics are from many countries.
I didn't dare to talk. Just do my best to increase my TQ and it's best not to draw attention to that issue for a while.
I just did my best. I sent traffics only to the richest of the richest country (and hence very little traffic), ensure that referrals are from well known search engine. Move traffic somewhere else and hope for the best.
I also contact sales in my host that says I can have many accounts as long as I do not abuse the bonus promotion only for new customer. Shit... Turns out the techies doesn't even know that.
I moved my domain to the new account and the server is much more stable. I asked for 2 days to test my account in the regular server and not given. I just circumvent that and make another hosting account and now it's been 2 months and working fine. No question asked.
As I said, my scripts didn't use as much memory and CPU power. Something an idiot with ego problem cannot understand.
Mental note: Don't argue with noob techies. Just ask sales and start over.
The next week I got no score.
I got no score for months and months. The traffic is very little. I thought, it's probably a good thing. During all this time I got no score. Who knows my score is actually bad.
Some guy pm me that I am a trouble maker. I didn't know what to do. I didn't do arbitrage. I didn't fraud my parking companies. But there is no way I can proof that. I didn't parked directly in my parking companies. I did SEO and redirect traffic.
I optimized my page in 37 languages. So maybe things like that cause Traffic Quality problem. Maybe I am a trouble maker. I just expand on my other biz just in case I have to quit this one.
Then I did more SEO to triple my income. Then after months of no score, I finally got a score 10.
I was thrilled.... There is an upslide graph moving from 1 all the way to 10
I don't know what happened. Maybe the new more stable server. Maybe the referral check. Maybe the countries selection.
With 10 score, I can expand in parked.com like crazy. We can make huge profit.
Thanks for giving me a chance parked.com. Thanks Barond Desmond (my account manager there).

For parkingpanel.com: Diane, I've heard other complaints about you. Not like I am going to use parkingpanel.com anymore anyway but I think you owe me my $300. I ain't do no fraud there.
For all of you that still park in parkingpanel.com. Parked.com pays MORE for Most domains (including adult as far as I know). Also they pay faster. Also they don't just accuse you of fraud and kicked you out easily. They gave me chance even after I got a 1 score.
Yap. You know, when my TQ drop from 5 to 4 to 1, 2 months ago, I was pale and thought I will have to quit this biz. I told Baron that maybe some domains have good and some have bad TQ.
Baron suggested that I open another account in parked.com. So, for a while, because my domains are split on several accounts there isn't enough traffic to judge TQ for a while.
Well, I no longer need to hide it now. Thanks Baron....
So my TQ was 1, then no score for 2 months, and then suddenly 10 (still 10 for 2 weeks).
Until today, there are 3 things that may have made my TQ jump from 1 to 10. I don't know which one:
1. Countries selection to only countries with high per capita income (I hope it's not the case so I can send to more countries)
2. Better more stable doorway server.
3. Referral selection where only traffics from google, yahoo, msn, and live gets redirected to parked.com, (only 10% of traffics are filtered out due to this though, so if this is the issue, perhaps TQ is way more sensitive than what I thought).
I don't know which one is the real cause.
That being said, I am thinking of trying my indexing services for other domainers for experimental purpose. That would be in a different thread .
I know that it'll get sites indexed (it'll get mine indexed). But that's all I know (it can be dropped from index, and who knows what). So it's free trial with no guarantee .
Oh shit.... my TQ drops to 1! It stays at 10 for 1 week. Then it went to 8 for 2 weeks, then it went all the way to 1.
Some traffics are ambiguous... For example, when there is no referral information or when the referral is the self URL, what should we do? I changed how they got redirected.
I switched back to the old way. If TQ doesn't improve, I would need some real affiliates to send traffic too.
Anyone try adultfriendfinder?
Look parked.com is still the best. At least they let me know when my traffics went bad. Barond told me that if it stays at 1 they will have to terminate me. So if it stays at 1 by this friday I will move traffic to some real affiliates. Anyone knows a good one?
Dude... Thanks for congratulating me. But you may have missread me. My TQ just drop to 1
Well thanks for congratulating me though. I does make me feel better. Yeah, it was 10 before. So at least it shows that I ain't cheatin or notin... But I am still in a tunnel.
If only I am sure I have a real affiliate I can fall back to, I'll just buy 100 domains and expand like crazy... With this constant fear it's hard for me to expand.
Damned... What all those affiliates are promoting anyway? How can they pay $1 per click and still make money? I'll be glad to sell my traffic for 1 cents per unique. That's about my RPM at parked.com anyway.
From what I understand, a no score is much better than a 1. A "1 score" is a warning sign of extremely non converting traffic or suspicious traffic. Account termination is possible at 1 or for even consistent scores below 5.
As far as payouts are concerned, a person with a 10 might get $1 for a Kw, whereas a person with no score would get around 0.50-0.60 or a figure closer to the historic average for that particular Kw. A person with a 1 would get around 10-15 cents or even lower for that same Kw.
I could be wrong here, .. Donny would have a more accurate answer.
Thanks varon, alls i wanted is an estimate, I may never get a score because unique visitors is rarely above 100 a day, But i will keep the few names from certain countries at sedo and see if i cant get a score besides zero
I haven't had a quality score since arbitrage stopped, and my average RPC for the past 30 days is $.94. Obviously, I wish my volume were better, but the non-existent QS doesn't seem to be hindering my RPC.

Wow, I already prepare 4 dating sites to switch right away if it's not.
I think payment should depend more on TQ. If TQ is low, rather than kicking out publishers that do not commit fraud, why not just reduce payment? When TQ is high, just up it up.
---
If it's ever 1 again, I think I can just try those dating sites too .
Either way, I am confident enough to expand like crazy...
No TQ score is much better than a low TQ score. You get paid the average of everybody's TQ score. Which is quite a high number I'm dreading the day I actually get a TQ score.
I'm kinda surprised you could get booted from the parking program for a low TQ score. But then I don't really understand the mechanics of the TQ score system.
