Parked.com Questions

[rickkumar]

Hi Donny,

I am thinking of trying parked.com and I have heard lots of things on forums about what parked allows and don't allow. I wanted to clarify before trying any thing, so here are my questions for you:

Q1: Is arbitrage allowed to parked.com parked pages?

Q2: If yes to Q1, then where can we send traffic from (such as yahoo, google adwords, microsoft adcenter, ask, any other etc)? Detail please.

Q3: Are we allowed to replace your keywords on a domain with our own keywords? I am talking about relevant keywords, not 'mortgage' keywords on a news related domain.

Q4: Can we increase or decrease the number of keywords on the parked pages? For example, if you show 10 keywords on a page can we just show 1 or 2 or 3 or lets say 12?

Q5: Are we supposed to get permission from parked.com before trying any of the above on any of our domain?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Regards.

1 Yes arbitrage is allowed and Donny has mentioned this before.

2 you can send traffic from anywhere except yahoo itself..As far as I know you can use adwords , adcentre and other engines..

3 keyword manipulation is allowed as long as they are relevant to your domain

4 You cannot increse or decrese the keywords...They remain the same..Varon has better explained this in the parked.com thread..

5 No.Donny is very flexible as long as you do not indulge in taking advantage of parked.com as a business.

Your best bet is to read through the "Parked.com" thread, started by SDX.
All your questions are answered, and you'll find some VERY helpful tips/tricks/suggestions that exceed your questions. Many of your questions are also answered by Donny directly and from other VERY knowledgeable Parked.com users like SDX, Evil, Varon, etc.

A Pm could have done a better job than a public posting

Also, consider some methods people use fall into a grey area... sometimes it's better to read between the lines than seeking an official answer on a public forum one way or the other regarding certain questions.

I understand you are all trying to be helpful and I appreciate that.

My dilemma is that if you don't follow the official answers, then your account is subject to termination anytime. Thats why I asked for official clarifications instead of depending on hearsay info.

I will be ok with a pm from Donny if he doesn't want to respond here.

Thanks.
