SEOparking, what do you think?

wonderwoman · 01-03-2009, 04:22 AM

I just found an interesting 'new' domain parking that quite surprising me. It called seoparking.com. it offers FREE services to its members and you can have your domains fully 'developed' in just few moments using the wordpress style templates. The content will automatically be updated and we can put our own ad blocks and/or banners at some designated spots as well as put the RSS Feeds, blogroll, etc. Very similar services to W******.com and P******R*********.com
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/parking-and-traffic-monetization/547635-seoparking-what-do-you-think.html

if you want to take a look how do they look, here are some website samples using seoparking.com:
www.best-laptopguide.com
www.accidentclaim911.com

I just wonder, if this company gives *free service* and it's said that we can keep all of our revenues (from adsense and other kinds of affiliate incomes), what are the company benefits by offering this service? it's just for the sake of boosting the popularity or blitz the market during market penetration stage? or.... is there any other 'hidden' agendas?

any input will be greatly appreciated. Will also be great if we have the representative of the company itself to answer any further questions from other fellow users

Usually companies that do this rotate their own ads in a cyle, maybe once every ten page impresssions or so. Or they place one of their own small advertising buttons on your page in a unobtrusive manner.

There is another company that does this as well and it similar but with it's own set templates called nowiw.com. They place a small button on each of your pages or ad a page with their own ads and this is where companies like this make their money.

doesn't sound like much, but with a lot of impressions and good indexing a small ad button or their own ad impression every 10 or so...it can add up.

Hope this sheds some light on this for you.

The site does say BETA in each page title - perhaps a new startup looking to generate some buzz. The FAQ does state user gets 100% of revenue - looks interesting but sounds suspicious

**enlytend** · 01-03-2009, 08:36 AM

Those 2 sites don't appear to be compliant with Adsense terms - I wouldn't risk my adsense account there. (Or if you do, read the program policies and make the necessary changes).

The company is counting on making money through email marketing - upselling, cross-selling. Their terms of use opt you in to receiving email offers, etc. from them.

co2 · 01-04-2009, 12:29 AM

I have put 15 domains on, didn't take to long. Only pain in the neck is, thay have several DNS settings, lots of cut and pasting !. I will email them to check, that thay do not break any TOS, for Google ect. I didn't put any add codes on, so ill await the reply, ill update thread CO2.

No privacy policy. That's been mandatory since Google acquired Doubleclick almost a year ago.

If you use them, build your own.

32paul52 · 01-16-2009, 12:00 PM

I am about to use seo parking too- for domains i am going to develop later- it looks like a great service- even if it has a fee later on- maybe worth it.....

MyTonyTiger · 01-20-2009, 07:26 AM

I've just put one of my pages on SEOParking.com. They auto-generate content for parked sites based on keywords you provide and they do it for free.

They also provide the ability to include your own content, including ad code. They claim you can use Google Adsense, but I wonder if the "Auto-generated" content or anything else about the pages they generate violate the TOS for Google. So far, I can't find anything wrong.

btw, the site parked there is http://www.theHotelLaPaz.com

jacques · 01-20-2009, 04:10 PM

I don't see a privacy policy (maybe users must do this?)

MyTonyTiger · 01-21-2009, 01:41 PM

That would be a problem. Thanks

MyTonyTiger · 01-22-2009, 07:42 AM

I emailed the site regarding a lack of a privacy policy on the generated web sites. Here is the reply I recieved:

I am using SEO Parking, can you explain more about a Privacy Policy?
Why would I need that? and why would not having it upset Google' AdSense?

bluearrow · 01-22-2009, 11:02 PM

Because in their New TOS they have status its a must to have a piracy policy in sites where you put Google Ads.

MyTonyTiger · 01-23-2009, 01:55 PM

That is correct. The Google Adsense terms and conditions say:

"You must have and abide by an appropriate privacy policy that clearly discloses that third parties may be placing and reading cookies on your users’ browser, or using web beacons to collect information, in the course of ads being served on your website. Your privacy policy should also include information about user options for cookie management."

lennco · 01-23-2009, 06:29 PM

He Tony,

I spoke with SEOParking last night and today they added a link to post your own Privacy Policy page.

It was pretty simple.

I hope this helps.

Here is the Policy I am using, I hope its good enough.

"Privacy Policy
What information do we collect?

None.

Do we use cookies?

We do not use cookies.

Do we disclose any information to outside parties?

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally identifiable information.

We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others rights, property, or safety. However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.

California Online Privacy Protection Act Compliance

Because we value your privacy we have taken the necessary precautions to be in compliance with the California Online Privacy Protection Act. We therefore will not distribute your personal information to outside parties without your consent.

happyhappy · 01-23-2009, 10:12 PM

nice clean page you have there OP might look into them myself for a few of my domains

Mark · 02-03-2009, 07:02 AM

Merging a couple of threads together - To answer a few questions

They've added a Privacy Policy form now it seems.

Seems to be released by the same people behind GotLinks.com - Which was a decent site if you're still doing those type sites.

sheprd · 02-12-2009, 02:47 PM

I have added a few site to seoparking. Can't seem to find any of their adverts on my page. Perhaps it is hiding somewhere...

I quickly added Canada Cash Advance with no problems.

sheprd · 02-12-2009, 06:40 PM

So far the only downside I see with SEO Parking is duplicate content. I parked canadacash.info and canada-loans.info one and both have the same content. Not a big deal to go in and change keywords, but in many niches the keywords are limited.

sheprd · 02-15-2009, 10:31 PM

Another plus is the ability to add your own articles to your seoparking sites. Articles with links in the body. Good option to have.

sheprd · 02-17-2009, 09:36 PM

Took two days for the above sites to be indexed in google! Not bad for set it and forget it!
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=547635

The below statement is from SEOParking home page and makes really good sense:

"Unless you have a valuable type in domain name that will generate traffic, chances are that you earn very little revenue from your domain names. The vast majority of domain owners do not have the luxury of type in traffic and must look for other ways to create value in their domains.

SEOparking.com will turn your parked domain names into a network of unique, content rich websites that are optimized to be indexed by search engines and increase your search engine rankings. Think of the true value of these types of websites. In addition to the traffic generated from search engines, you could promote other web sites, sell text links, sell blog posts, etc."

Anybody want to share their results here?
Have you got sites that rank well for keywords & are making money?
Is googs treating them OK?

Same question for synthasite dot com, anyone tried it with good results?

When I first posted, the domains were soon at PR 1 to 6, but they have now slipped into oblivion!!. I did not have any adds on them, as i was co concerned
about TOS, [read my post above]. I have adds on them now, but only as of last few days, as for earnings nothing as yet, and no change in PR.
