PARKED.COM - Official Thread!

Hi,

Welcome to the OFFICIAL PARKED.COM thread!

 

[TOXX]

WOW! You guys know I'm one of the last to "sound the alarm"...but my estimated revenue today is UNUSUALLY LOW???

Welcome to the club SDX (for today at least). Is it normal to lose clicks every day when finalized stats come out? It happens to me every day. On average about 10% of the clicks fly away. Anyone else have a similar situation?

Yea, but when I looked at my traffic analysis, before the clicks disappeared, I saw some pretty weird stuff there, so I was actually expecting them to go.

As far as the TQ - mine went back to 10 too, after dipping down to 8, but mousing over it, it only goes as far 2/13, so I'm not sure it's current anyway. I can't imagine I have enough traffic to maintain the traffic score for long anyway. I'm slowly but surely re-optimizing my domains (as I do it differently for organics than for PPC) and it will take a while for things to get re-indexed, if they do. I've had to make a strong adjustment to my expectations. It's not the first time, and it won't be the last.

If you make most of yours from referrals it's probably a rough time I'd say.

Actually my referral revenue was peanuts compared to my own revenue...up until today???

Sorry to hear things are down for you...I'm sure you'll work it out

As we ALL will...no?

 

[goodkarmaco]

Agreed,

I probably should have stated these are my opinions, is there any truth to them, then going off like everything is fact. So keep it professional is the best way.

Quick question, does parked.com still allow CJ.com affiliate links to be placed on our parked pages?

Thanks,

Yes..add your own CJ link at custom content.

OK, thank you vbigdeli!

I put a CJ affiliate link on one of my low visited pages about a month ago and was wondering if it was still allowed. I will now experiment with putting some CJ links on some of my higher click through rate pages to test them out!

You mean that without arbitrage that most of you guys are only making less than $10 a day? .

Not to sound heartless or anything, but that makes me feel a little better about my portfolio in a twisted sort of way. :red: Now my 1 to 2 bucks a day doesn't seem all that bad.

Since arb is out of the question, people obviously need new traffic avenues. We should all be brainstorming along those lines. Here is my suggestion:

Submissions to article sites that point back to our parked domains.

Been thinking about trying it but not sure of the feasibility of that model. My thinking is that instead of having custom content on the parked domain, pull it out, make it into an article, have it point back to the parked domain, submit it like everywhere, and sit back and see what happens.

Anyone have any experience with that or want to suggest other possible traffic methods?

EDIT: It occurred to me just now that the article method I described above may be against TOS? Not sure.

Best traffic methods?

Great SEO on your domain (developed useful and unique)
Great domain name: typein traffic
Dropped, aged, multi backlink domain

All 3 of this kinds require:
1)lot of work
2)lot of money
combination of 1 and 2
:hehe:

PS: is your breath getting any better? :yell:

Yes, well, all that sounds fine and dandy, but how does that help our current lousy portfolios? :] Plus I am talking better parking traffic not better developed traffic.

Ha! Yeah, now that I got good responses in that other thread, my breath is almost minty fresh, thanks! Even better, there are a couple of people who have shown interest in my LLLL domains. :tu:

Unfortunately the above is the truth: if you have handregged domains parking it just doesn t work (90% of my domain have age or back link or bought on secondary market...)

Good to know , best of luck with them!

The part about the money is simply not true. I just bought a $10 domain at TDNAM that is doing about $1 everyday. I have done this many times in the $10 to $50 purchase range. Although, many only might make .25 or .50 cents a day.

You get 100 of these type domains and you are now in business. It can be done.

[thetruman]

sure thing...a domain with many backlinks probably aged unnoticed (point 3)...my point was that you don t get traffic with handregged domains (unless dropped and not picked up that is very unlikely)

Are you saying that kind of income is purely from parking these sites? Dude, you so have my attention. Now I know I am asking for trade secrets here and disclosing them might give you some competition, but...

How do you go about finding domains like this?

I am assuming you look up the existence of backlinks on domains that are for sale? Anything else? Gut feeling mojo, what?

(Dammit, I am doing it again. Hijacking yet another thread... :notme: )
