PARKED.COM - Official Thread!

[TOXX]

Hi,

Welcome to the OFFICIAL PARKED.COM thread!

 

[-fp-]

Yes, I just got my first payment and I still haven't seen anything from Bodis (which I left for Parked).

Same here. Just got my first payment. I wonder if Donny has an idea how many people went to parked when Bodis kicked 90% of its members out?

In any case.....Parked rocks!

I have a couple of questions please:

1. Does anyone have suggestions on how to best utilize the feature that allows you to input text onto the bottom of your parked page? I would assume you could put a paragraph or two about the subject but that seems almost too obvious.

2. Donny, I know you are always looking for ways to improve Parked.com, so in that vein, it would be extremely helpful to me if you had something in the interface that not only listed our domains but on the same line as the domain, stats, edit, etc., it also showed if the domain had been manually optimized and when. Does that make sense?

Thank you for the great job you guys are doing.

Mark

I think I recall someone asking about India traffic. I can verify that it does.

I have a .co.in and over 90% of the traffic is India. Type in or no hostname, meanwhile.com, Google.co.in and Google.com. While not mega payment the RPC is far more than $0.02.

Thank you Parked.

Donny,

I am trying to analyze the affect of traffic from various countries on my Parked.com performance for my domains using the "Traffic Analysis" data display. I am finding it difficult, because, no matter which way I get at it, the numbers are always the same for a specific domain. From this I can only surmise that the "Traffic Analysis" numbers are for "all time" or some unstated time period (no mention of any time period on the "Traffic Analysis" page). Is that correct?

I would like to see the traffic numbers for a specific day or day range. Am I overlooking something? Is that possible? If not, could it be added as a future enhancement?

Thanks.

Data provided is from the last 5 days

[Webchannel]

Anyone have any examples of creative sites that are up with parked.com that I can look at to get ideas?

There's a thread about that here: http://www.namepros.com/parking-and...75-show-off-your-customized-parked-pages.html

Not all of them are on Parked, but most of the examples on the more recent pages are.

Got my first payment yesterday as scheduled! I'm thankful to have finally found a reliable parking company with great customer support.

 

[netmeg]

Any company where the money is deposited in my bank account before I even receive the email telling me that it's been sent is okey dokey by me. That's two pay periods in a row that happened.

 

[Varon]

A similar thought... I tend to get my payment a day before the scheduled date. Like this time, I got the parked.com trade pay deposit on the 6th. This is a solid reliable payment schedule. It would be great to see other parking companies emulate this twice monthly payouts.

 

[johname]

Just cant beat twice monthly, fast payments. Thanks, Parked.com

 

[Grassman]

Donny since you read this i just want to say that the manager Sonny kicks serious ass. She answers my tickets/questions within 24 hours usually. Theres some sketchyness going on with my account so i have been contacting her about it.

Also, do you contact on weekends or no

Just got my parked page indexed and search results are strange?

<begin Google results>
Puts - Write Puts and Sell Puts Like The Pros.... option holder is merely selling his short position, and is not contractually obligated by the sold option.) Wikipedia. ©2007 puts.tv All rights reserved.
<end Google results>

Any ideas why the Meta description tag was not indexed but instead the LAST few lines of my custom content?

Any help would be appreciated.

 

[hitchhiker]

are you using content from wikipedia. . . is so google will send you to the "supplementary" results despite being indexed. . . .

try to have original content, it will rank higher

meta tag descriptions are never shown in the search results . . .too much spamming.

Guys i have a question. Ive been a member of parked.com for many years now. And for the most part Ive never had problems... And Ive never ever had ANY problems with payments or money owed or anything like that. But in the past few months ive been making about $2500 on one domain in a months time, every single month. I would like to add MORE domains to parked.com simply for that reason alone lol, but when i had a recent discussion with someone they urged me not to add my new domains to parked. They had heard some "rumors" about people making too much money from parked.com and they got their accounts deleted. Now me, I dont personally put too much thought into this because we all know from belonging to other sites that when people do illegal things or break TOS and then they get suspended or deleted, they get pissed off and decide to spread nasty things about the program/company. But im just wondering if there really is ANY truth to this rumor. Ive tried many other parking programs and like this one the best for MANY reasons. I just want to know if i really have anything to be worrying about, or if I should just go ahead and add my domains. What do you guys think?

 

[johname]

Dont worry AlphaBeta, add more domains, no company would say no to quality domain names.

If you got more $2500 a month name you dont have any problems lol

 

[jeffoverman]

Parked has a very successful name called stockmaster.com and I remember reading about this and the owner wanted to sell it for cash issues to start another project up.

I find that very hard to believe. Parked wants and loves this type of volume.

Most parking companies do and I wish I was in that league lol.

2500 a month coming inn each month from just one name. Reinforces what I want to do next year, buy one generic type in name or attempt to and not spend thousands of bucks for a .com but will be hard to find

Been a tough week here after last weeks upward trend here. This week how frustrating. More work to do and trying get results. Move forward back 3 steps it seems in the domain business lol but I love it and its surly a challenge. More tweaking, more time. Now I am trying find 40 names in my names and go from there. Changes revisions and what's working and what's not.

Domaining is a powerful thing and still believing in this. Just tough on a rookie with limited funds and surly made a lot of mistakes. And wish I could go out and buy a type in name tomorrow but can't. Money is a pain in the ass lol

Cheers

J
