Big Thing! - Parking place that enables use of Sub Domains - Where and which??

[competentdomains]

Lets say I have a lot of domains with very good generic single words (though they are in other country tlds). For example if I have a Cars.xx then I can do a lot more subdomains

used.cars.xx
rental.cars.xx
new.cars.xx
cool.cars.xx

etc...

that each correspond to high ovt search phrases (and then also with the more words in a high ovt phrase, less other sites on the net to compete against.)

When people search for "new cars" it is more likely that they click on
new.cars.xx instead of a cars.xx that they won´t find anyway.

Subdomains give better ranking so I think it is such a waste if there is no possibility to park with subdomains.

Many thanks for some info about this..

I dont think any company will allow partial parking !

Not partial. If they have the root domains parked, why not subs too? Because it is a strange world I guess.

With a good single word name, you can do a lot with a couple of sub domain mini sites.

When you park a domain every page redirects to index....

Tnat means if you have a domain parked lets say www.idontknow.com then every page no matter what you type in the browser it will redirect to index page.If it is a 404 it will go to index. No chance you will have a sub domain up for anything different.

Good idea.
But no company would allow it.They just accept primary domain.

This is a good idea and would work great with a parking company like Bodis that allows you to add text to the pages because subdomains such as used.cars.xx could get high placements at search engines.

I can't think of any parking service that directly supports this, but if you're prepared to use multiple parking services you can achieve the effect you want.

I must admit I was intrigued by the idea as I can see the use for some domains of mine, so I've set up one of my other domains that already had its name server on my hosting to test it out. You can see what I've done by going to
www.embroidery.co.nz, design.embroidery.co.nz, and machine.embroidery.co.nz

I did this by doing the following:

1. Setting the name server for the domain to my own hosting. This needs to be somewhere you can edit the information for the domain.
2. Set-up the domain on each of several parking services. On each service set it up for the relevant keyword.
3. Set up the keywords in the DNS as subdomains pointing at the relevant parking services. e.g. machine.embroidery.co.nz goes to Bodis, design.embroidery.co.nz goes to Trafficz

In a real world example, unless one of the categories was a clear winner for having the www, I'd probably make the www a small site on my own web space with pointers to the sub-domains.

First of all, if they allow redirection, they will only allow http://parkingcomapny.com/?redirect=yourdomain.com

or you gotta change your name servers to theirs.

But, yes, if they allow it, it would be simply great and very much feasible.

Despite quoting it in its entirety, I think you misunderstood my post.

You don't need either redirection or changing the nameservers to theirs. I presented a complete working example that used neither of these things.

I did it with A records, which do have the disadvantage that if the parking company changes their IP addresses you need to change yours to compensate, but you can do it with CNAME records to another domain that does have its nameservers with them you avoid that. (At the price of keeping another domain permanently on their system)

At PARKED all your subdomains will redirect. :tu:

As I told before, if it's about feasibility, it simply yes.

But if it's about doing things without the Parking company's knowledge, I will say it's not possible with Bodis.com which only looks for your nameserver records. But in Parked.com and other parking compaines that allow domain forwarding, I guess we can find some loopholes
