Domain Promotions Yes Or No???

[domainpark]

Hi All

I have seen some posts in ref to whats allowed, whats not allowed in the domain parking industry overall and wanted to start this thread to kinda re open this topic.

We all want the ability to make money in this industry whether its buying and selling of domains or from the lucritive ppc part of the domain industry today.

The thing with making money from the ppc portion is alot of whats considered normal promotions of a standard website is a major no no for most parking co's.

The main exception to this is those who have been lucky and fortunate to aquire a yahoo feed. That really only a handful of parking co's have this. Most other parking co's have the google feed or ask.com which is a glorified google syndiacted from what I am told.

Neither ask or google allows abritrage yet I have seen ads in smaller search engines that are paid per click that go right to the ask.com pages??? Isnt this a contradiction of what ask.com and even google themselves seem to allow and disalllow in the parking industry???

How is it that the majors players are allowed carte blanche arbritrage yet the small or even large domainers cant???

Or are the larger portfolios of domains that have a google feed allowed to market their domains in the open marketplace???

Dont get me wrong I am not bashing either google or ask, I am just trying to grasp the reasoning on how is it that major players can market their portfolios or their search engines in every aspect of online marketing yet the smallers players can't.

Lets paraphrase for a moment on whats not allowed in most parking co's

NO LINK BUILDING
NO PPC PROMOTIONS
NO BANNER PROMOTIONS
NO PROMOTIONS OF ANY KIND REALLY



Whypark is one of the main marketing alternatives to the standard domain parking industry and serves mainly google ad sense ads correct?? Those mini sites can market their domains in every aspect. All thats listed above are allowed and those mini sites have google all over them.

Isnt the recent additions of content to parking pages pretty much the same as those mini sites more or less???


What my hope is that somehow on down the line both google and ask and even yahoo for that matter look at the domain industry as a whole as the "NEXT GREAT FRONTIER" in online marketing and take off some of the restrictions that have been placed on the industry since its inception.

I welcome any comments on this topic.

I don't see that happening. The bottom line is user satisfaction and the reality is that parked pages do not provide a meaningful user experience. It's not in Google's interest to allow advertisers to drive traffic to parked pages.

Development is the way of the future.

I disagree that 100% developement is the future.

The recent additions to domain parking pages of allowing content is the first step in fully customized parking pages.

Imodo is taken parking to whats in many ways the next frontier with their landing pages and their feed in the future is a yahoo one.
