Finding where my parked traffic comes from?

[briggszilla]

I've got around 50 names parked over at SEDO and I'm just wondering if I'm missing something, or if maybe I should move my names to another service that offers more functionality...

How do I know exactly where my traffic is coming from? Less vaguely, how do I distinguish type-ins/search engine traffic/coming from links?

I've got a few names that get a decent amount of traffic, I'm actually surprised at the volume a couple of them get regardless of me not being able to find them in searches for terms other than the exact domain name. I also have a couple that I had half assed developed into websites but then scrapped them and stuck them on parking...so I think most of their traffic comes from search engines.

Anyway. Is there a way to tell on SEDO? I haven't come across the function anywhere in my control panel. Are there other services that DO offer some type of analytics?

I think I may take the domains that aren't performing well on SEDO and move them elsewhere anyway, but do you think there is somewhere else I should move them ALL to?

Thanks in advance.

I use Google Analytics hosted by GoDaddy's free hosting ( http://www.google.com/analytics/ )

I've never used sedo, so i dunno. Some parking companies allow you to use Google Analytics with them (parked.com & 1plus.net, i think)

Different domains get different results from different parking companies. Just move them to lots of parking companies until you find the best one for each domain.
At the moment i recommend Bodis, it gives you 100% revenue share. But it's still in beta.

depending on the kind of traffic you have, you might want to host the domain for 24 to 48 hours on a cpanel enabled hosting server or shared and you can tell from it, at least your monetizing is not point blank

have sedo switch your account to sedopro and there you can see witch countries your traffic comes from and also the links if any where traffic comes from

Super idea, thank you =)

If your parking company supports Url Forwarding (NameDrive for example),
you can host your domain and get the stats right from your server (Awstats for example)
while you redirect your visitors to the Parking Url using .htaccess, javascript or others.

Good Luck.
