Be Prepared! New Design for Parked Domain Ad Pages
Dear Partner,

We would like to share some important updates regarding changes to landing page designs. Our Tier 1 ad provider is introducing new design guidelines for parked domain ad pages, which will affect all AFD (Ads For Domains) partners, including us.

These updates feature enhanced sponsored labels, making ads more clearly marked to improve transparency and build trust with users. Additionally, calls-to-action will be streamlined for greater clarity and better integration with the overall page design. They’re also refining the ad text display to make it more engaging and easier to read.

These new guidelines are designed to improve the user experience and enhance advertiser visibility.

As of Tuesday, December 17th, our Tier 1 ad provider has stated 50% of traffic will run through the new design. We expect a complete transition by January 2025.

While initial testing indicates a significant decrease in RPM, we're optimistic about performance improvements in the coming weeks, due to additional template optimizations and higher conversation rates for advertisers which will lead to increased EPCs for your traffic.

As always, our Account Managers are ready to answer any questions you might have.

Real traffic (parking) loses to fake traffic (arbitrage)

The new page design has many pages without matching ads. You need to refresh multiple times before ads appear. This is really a big problem.

It is as PC support wrote. RPC improves.

That is good to know, my rpc improved too
But now with the Google changes, parking will be on life support

My revenue improved too at PC the 28 and March 1st. But then they posted yesterday it was all a mistake.
I had a $56 click. Like others, looking for alternatives.

EPC was somehow better for the last 2 days (Thu, Fri). Not sure if it's Above sending the traffic to a new place (I'm using Above Managed) or Google kicked their dead cat so it pretends alive for a while.

Hey Kokoro can you add a for sale link with above managed? Thanks

Yes, you can manage for sale settings just like on your regular account.

That's clear, but GiantPanda could gain an edge with their team doing manual optimizations as opposed to automatic ones by the rest. I'm giving a try and the time will tell.

i don't think so. i feel they are trying to optout most of the domains away from google ads as possible to redirect to their other ad partners.

Some people say that there is problem with stats visits drop down for whole month and now. For example 100 visit changed to 10 visit and so on for whole month stats back. (revenue no changed but that makes big CTR) is it bug ?

question

if we make 90percent less does it mean park companies do too?

or do we make 90 less so they can make 0 or 10 percent less

food for thought

 

[Tabletworld]

Could someone provide me some more info about zeroclick on PM.

April looked stable and with growth. In May, another slump. Statistics are flying from wall to wall like a drunk.

When will this finally stabilize?
