Hello where the best place to park a domain name? My domain names our currently park at Namedrive.com. When you click on the links on Namedrive the pages say error. Any suggestions for a good site to park? Thanks guys

Well everyone has their own opinions, there is no "best" parking service, you'll probably get 10 different answers here. Namedrive is ok IMO, I use them almost exclusively for non-english speaking traffic because they have good support for that. I really like Trafficz even though most hate them. I really hate Sedo even though most people love them. Fabulous is good but the reporting interface is annoying, and they're pretty strict about domain quality.

You really have to try a few on and see how they work. There's nothing wrong with having many parking accounts and testing them all to find what works best for you. Also some names just do better at certain parking companies, so move them around once a month until you find the best home for each domain.

Different parking providers may provide different results. Some domains work better with a particular platform. Fabulous is supposedly the best with gambling domains. Domain sponsor do better with financial domains. You have to move than around to find the best home for different parts of your portfolio.

My personal preference at the moment is Fabulous.com (good with everything, not just gambling domains) and Parked.

Both have excellent customer service and both can increase you earning capacity IMO.

Hope this helps.

I always send my new registrations straight to Sedo, I do this for several reasons but mainly so that they are in their system so potential buyers can see them listed for sale.

I then wait for a few weeks and hopefully by this time Google has indexed them and I check to see how they are doing. If they are making some income I will leave them there and I then move the rest to another parking company like Parked or Fabulous. I then leave them there for a few weeks at the other parking company and if they don't make any revenue I then send them over to Bodis or the other parking company.

Development is the goal for each domain and each domain that fails to make at least .50c a month parking will be developed.
