PARKED.COM - Official Thread!

[TOXX]

Hi,

Welcome to the OFFICIAL PARKED.COM thread!

 

[DADomains]

You're not Dadomains!
...
This thread is meant for ALL of us to learn and help each other succeed in the Parking business! :tu:

Thanks! But I was just thinking that my last questions were not about Parked.com per se. Maybe I should just PM Seabass and beg, bribe, or extort him to spill the beans. :hehe:

Just regged hentaialbum dot com. It's a fresh reg and gets 3-4 uniques a day. :P

Careful though, I heard that the traffic a newly regged name gets is sort of fickle. Still, good luck with it. It sounds like a great buy.

Lastest payment for arbi people :hehe:

Anyone received Parked PayPal payment?

you have taste for domain mrizos. This is a nice one
Hand regged can work in case is a brandnew keyword rich domain (as I imagine is hentai album) . Maybe I have been a little too radical before... anyway those nice finding take usually LOADS OF WORK (and luck)

 

[Seabass]

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: )

DaDomains, I spilled my guts on page 173, post #4301 on how I do it. It may have been more than most folks wanted to read as my post was so long. But it is there if you want to give it a try.

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)

I buy only domains that have never been used in any fashion 99.99% of the time, so no backlinks or history are part of the equation.

This is the key to never losing your traffic and knowing where you stand.

Just regged hentaialbum dot com. It's a fresh reg and gets 3-4 uniques a day. :P

Absolutely you can still hand-reg domains and find winners. Congrat's on that one.

You can get higher ROI this way too then running up auction tabs. It is just a whole lot more work finding those diamonds in all that sand. That is, unless you are looking in foreign languages. :hehe:

[thebutler]

Just received it

Just received that thanks here's some dough email.

I didn't do arb so I'm not going to have a complete emotional meltdown when I look at the numbers.

Anyone who did arb should carry a do not disturb sign around their neck all weekend!!!!

looong thread - I have scanned back through quickly and have 3 comments:

1. is it only arbitragers who are experiencing parked drop? (mine are pretty level at parked - although noticed namedrive may have gone up ..)

2. i read your big handreg post seabass - experience shows here - but what happened to domain tasting?

(don't laugh at 2. i have an old portfolio and do not hand reg any more much - i know google fiddle with something re: kiting but not sure what)

3. as a web entrepreneur 1st , domainer 2nd I am very interested in the alternatives to parking - no-one can disagree that domain parking sucks (not for domainers of course) - but this is not the place for that discussion - anyone know where is?

(i do not get any work done since joining this forum ...)

 

[DnPresident]

I got mine..2 hours delay on payment

My heart dropped when you said that, I looked in my paypal account and it was there, shoooowee.

For some reason I didn't get the email from Parked...I didn't get the email about stopping any paid traffic that others got until I requested it. If it weren't for NP I wouldn't have known about it.

 

[johname]

I requested it. If it weren't for NP I wouldn't have known about it.

link is in the news part of your parked account in the top right, been there since the no arbi email was sent. so all should know about no arbi

I got the e-mail from PayPal first and an hour later from Parked.

I'm sure gonna miss getting paid every 2 weeks, the high CTR and even after the huge rev drops at parked, after jumping from several of probably the highest paying parking companies over the last several days I've been reminded why Parked was my favorite over all.

Would love to hear from Donny that I could change my nameservers back to Parked.

No problems, all is well.

 

[TOXX]

Donny's coming soon!

 

[biohammer]

Got paid from Parked...I won't be seeing another payment like this (sobbing)....oh well It was too easy and nothing easy lasts ...so onto the next challenge.
I DO want to say Thank You! to both Donny and Parked for the last 6 months since I joined.Its been fantastic. You run a quality operation. I will stick with Parked as long as they'll have me.

.................
2. i read your big handreg post seabass - experience shows here - but what happened to domain tasting?

The big post I made was not about handregs, it was about buying domains at auction or directly from current owners that have never had a history of use whatsoever.

I have never tasted domains and have never done arbitrage.

 

[aras]

I was not doing arbitrage and i am mostly using adult domains at Parked. I did not experience any significant changes in ctr or rpc. I am not sure what they use for adult domains but its not Yahoo i guess. So the problems you mention seems to be somewhat related to yahoo only. Just a novice guess.

How do you go about finding domains like this?

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

Any domain name that make more than 3 cents per day is a
positive domain since it will make $10.95 - $8 (reg. fee) = $2.95 per year :D

Some of my domains go against some basic rules of domain
business such as very long and dash in them.

How to find them?
Here are some basic how to.

Do search using OVT. - how much OVT?
Google - how many search result pages?
Google - how many ads showing?
Backlinks - if it's dropping domains.
Archived pages - if it's dropping domains.

Let me show you extreme case.

For example, creditcard-balancetransfers.com
This made $34.33 since 2007-09-11.

21320 OVT for "credit card balance transfer".
Google - 745,000 for "credit card balance transfer" with quotes.
Many google ads for these keywords.
Backlinks - none since it's not dropped domain.
Archived - none since it's not dropped domain.

I wanted to get CreditCardBalanceTransfer.com, but, it's not available.
2nd choice, CreditCardBalanceTransfers.com - not available.
3rd choice, CreditCardsBalanceTransfer.com - not available.
4th choice, CreditCardsBalanceTransfers.com - not available.
5th choice, CreditCard-BalanceTransfer.com - not available.
Damn!
I usually quit about here, however, stats are too good to give up.
So...
I get CreditCard-BalanceTransfers.com
It seems I'll make about $70/year minus reg. fee.
Am I going to renew? Certainly!

It may not be much, but, what if you find 1,000 such domains?
That's $70K/year and it's not so little any more
You can find 3 such domains per day, easy.
You'll have more than 1,000 such domains one year later.

CreditCards-BalanceTransfers.com is available.
This may make about $30/year? :D

 

[Seabass]

Copper - great info. Thanks for sharing.

 

[aras]

So copper, are there really some people out there who type creditcard-balancetransfers.com in the browser? Considering no backlink/archive and its impossible to compete against all those results with a parked page by means of SEO.
