DomainSponsor TOS questions

dabb · 07-07-2005, 10:20 PM

Isn't it against the DomainSponsor TOS to basically do anything that sends non-natural type-in or "existing link" traffic to their parking pages?

From DS TOS:

"Publisher may not generate traffic to their website or Our links by any of the following methods: listings on newsgroups, bulk e-mailing, icq postings, or chatroom/irc postings, iframes, zero pixel frames, hitbots, clickbots, spiders, cgi-scripts, JavaScript, click farms or any other similar method."

I see a lot of people post on here with DS parked domains in their signatures. Doesn't that fall into the "listing on newsgroups" category?

I saw recently somebody selling a domain name suggesting they park it at DS and that they will send pop-under traffic to said sold domain. Isn't sending pop-under traffic to a DS parked domain totally against the rules? If not, I'd love to buy some cheap untargetted pop-under traffic and send them to my high-paying keyword domains.

Signature not considered as listing on newsgroup .. this is a personal advertisement by members.

My 2cents.

So is it not allowed in the DS TOS to list names parked there in a post here? I'm not talking about having them as links but just mentioning the names as having been registered or being for sale.

I always thought it was ok in the context of trying to sell the domain name. But I didn't think you were really allowed to promote parked sites via signatures, "visit my site" posts, etc. Any DS employees lurking here?

Visiting site is cool but not to "fraud" click the ads.

I hope this clear.
