[TOXX]

Hi,

Welcome to the OFFICIAL PARKED.COM thread!

 

[Blitz]

Thanks for the replies DnPresident and Seabass. I'll try turning the estimates off. - Bob

Pleased with Parked

Just adding my feelings about parked.
I must say I enjoy Parked.com's navigation system and the layout of the sites. Very clean and professional looking. Also they get back to your questions pretty fast.

Highly recomended for parking.

 

[zabijaq]

Yup. Stick with them. They are pros, have great portfolio category mass edit, have fast support and have real stand-up guy Donny here

Yeah I guess some people do, I guess it could calm the nerves and lower the blood pressure. The anticipation can be high at times :yell:

For me the best estimate is after it actually closes out with the final RPC after a few days.

 

[Donny]

And if people haven't noticed or not, the final numbers are coming in a lot sooner than before. Our stats guy has come up with a new way to process the final numbers much faster than before, so what used to take over 4 hours now takes 1 hour to finish.

[Seabass]

Hey Donny

Still looking for those extra 20-30 characters in the meta-description field.

Thanks!

PayPal received - Awesome!

Great service guys!

I may already be telling you something you know, but direct deposit from Parked is a lot easier than if you are sending your PayPal money to your bank account after a Parked payment.

I'm only telling you this b/c I have found that some people still don't know what direct deposit is.

 

[netmeg]

Yea, I typically have the money in my account (direct deposit) two days before I get the email from Parked telling me that payment has been sent. Can't beat that with a stick.

 

[Seabass]

And most importantly, the wifey doesn't have access to my Paypal account :lala:

So.... that's must be your strip club money then, huh...... :yell:

VIP service for netmeg. cooL!

VIP service for netmeg. cooL!

No, but I think it does have something to do with the space-time continuum.

I gotta say since I switched to direct deposit last month I am seeing payments 3-4 days before they are due, sure the speed depends on the quickness of your bank as well, good deal to get paid twice a month plus 3-4 days early as well.

Hey guys,
i've just created a Parked.com account and created a little portfolio. I have some domains with traffic on Sedo, but every click is around $0.03 - $0.05 . Hoping i can get more on Parked.
I'm optimizing the domains, only... i've inserted and configurated a television-related domain, only ... when i try to visit it, i just see cameras/mp3/mobile and nothing related to the television. I receive tons of click on this domain because it is the .com of a France/Morocco big television, but if in the parked page people just see.. "random" things... i'm not sure they will click anymore.
Or i just have to wait some time before it is updated?

Welcome to the Parked thread daboscolton.

The keywords update immediately when you hit save, but sometimes if you are using two or three keywords, and Parked has no advertisers for those keywords, then Parked's system will pick out one or two of the keywords instead of all of the keywords you put into the keyword field.

For example, if you use the keywords "French Television", Parked may only show ads for "French" or "Television" and not "French Television", but only if there are no advertisers/market ready with ads for "French Television". I hope that makes sense.

Check your site. Do the keywords on the first line, the one with color on the left side, match exactly the keywords you entered into the Parked system? If it does match... you can't do much better, but if it does not.... go back to Parked and keep experimenting with different keywords until you get ads that are acceptable on your site.

Also, are you using English Keywords? Use English and it should translate it into French..... not so sure about Moroccan.

If all else fails, PM Donny, a Parked representative here on the thread. He has posts above you can PM him from. Or you can contact your Parked representative and ask for optimization help. They may be able to force a keyword into that field if it is not accepting the keyword for you...... if the keyword is related to the domain.

On another note, earnings just started moving back up...... I love the end of September..... it happens every year at every parking company.

 

[netmeg]

Good, cause I was doing pretty well till last week, but it's been dead since then.

Final stats for 2008-09-23 are delayed due to a delay from one of our prodivers.

As opposed to your amateur divers?

[Seabass]

Dammit, prodivers.com is taken.

Hi everyone,

I know we've had this before, but I cannot seem to insert a youtube video into the parked.com page.

I know you click the "f" button in custom content but for some reason in Mozilla there seems to be no reaction to the "f" button..

..i'll be clicking my own "f" button if I cant get this to work 8^X
