PARKED.COM - Official Thread!

Hi,

Welcome to the OFFICIAL PARKED.COM thread!

Hi, does anyone know the exact requirements to get into Parked?

I do not believe a referrer link is enough, is it?

Previously I tried applying with a few lousy ones...and was rejected

The tendency for most domainers is to submit a few non-performing names over to another parking company and see what happens. Companies like parked have their own criteria (for obvious reasons).

I suggest you reapply with as many premium names across as you can. Parked is a great company and I've personally had domains make up to 3 * more on Parked than elsewhere.

Also, make sure you don't use a free email service, like gmail or hotmail or yahoo; my understanding is that those are declined right off the bat.

I know this is a little early for some, and for me, but Happy New Years! This should be a great year.

Currently with ParkingPanel but I have decided to give Parked a go, submitted my 10 names as requested but got rejected by them.

I have over 400 names & couldn't get in! Why is it so difficult to get into Parked???

Submit more than 10 domains. Do not submit your worst names. Provide as much as possible type-in and strong keyword .coms. PM for referral if needed.

Happy New Year! :tu:

Happy New Year Everyone.

Some guy is going to do a live motorcylce jump on ESPN after the clemson auburn game (which is 17-17 with about one min left. So i am not going anywhere lol


Hes going to jump a football feild in Ls Vegas 310 feet

 

[netmeg]

I heard about that; guess I'll turn it on. I had all kinds of big plans but we're supposed to get up to a foot of snow tonight (or more) so that kind of ruined my New Year's Eve. So I went out and bought some more domains and sent them over to Parked (to keep in theme with this item)

(ork ork)

 

[johname]

the good thing about buying domains on dec 31 is you can remember when they expire

 

[netmeg]

yep. got a nice hangover one too.

Separately, Diller announced during a conference call Monday morning that IAC reached a new agreeement with Google that makes Google the exclusive provider of sponsored search results on IAC’s Ask.com for the next five years. Diller said the deal is worth more than $3.5 billion for the new IAC. The company’s current deal with Google was set to expire at the end of this year. Diller had previously said he was talking with Microsoft and Yahoo — in addition to Google — about the possibility of striking a sponsored listings deal.

 

[Donny]

I hadn't heard that one yet. Thanks for the news.

Donny

 

[janiema]

yeah I dont think the deal had been exclusive before that. Maybe ask's payouts will go up some

 

[zurc.net]

Very interesting... how do you all think this will effect us?

That's a good news, knowing Ask.com is getting to ppc business last time I checked.

hoping an increase in revenue because parked uses asked as a secondary feed provider. Now it will really be all google ads for the most part

Is this true donny?

 

[Mobi Cheap]

... Now it will really be all google ads for the most part

You don't mean for parked as a whole, right?

Yahoo probably would veto google being involved in the Yahoo-Parked relationship. But lets see what Donny says about it.

Yes interesting to know. Trafficclub used to mixed feeds from different provider, ending up losing it.

 

[Mobi Cheap]

I'm not sure why this would be such a big deal for parked.com.

Ask.com is merely a secondary provider for parked, and it was serving Google ads anyway.
:imho:

How long does it take for an account manager to answer a question? I know it's the holiday season, but just wondering since it's been a couple days.
