Parkingcrew.com - Anyone using/used them?

Parkingcrew.com

Just signed up, CTR looking good - no revenue back yet as not updated.

Anyone have any experience with them - how do they perform & has anyone had a payment from them (on time)?

Edit: Thought I'd change the title of the thread as it seems to have become popular.

ParkingCrew,

What's up with the very, very, very low CPC now???

I just tested a domain that is an old functional site of mine on yours, and I get 10 clicks for $0.07? Or another domain, I only get 3 clicks for $0.05?

When I used Adsense on them for years in the past, such CPC was unheard of!

What's the deal?

when will it paid in this month?

Lately, this ParkingCrew stats are always "delayed" by 2 days and since this change came about, the CPC has been very bad, once the clicks are "finalized". It looks like a permanent change. I even tested with two domains that were running as LEGIT sites --> straight to parking. They are getting organic traffic from organic listings in Bing and Google.

You cannot get better traffic than that. If this is the kind of CPC ParkingCrew is giving, I'd better pull out all my domains from there and put them back as sites before they incur SERP damage. Even my typo domain that ALWAYS gets good CPC is lumped in under their 48 hour delay and right now, all my clicks show a flat $0.00. And after a long wait, the revenue is in cents!

If their upstream provider is Google, they better get other upstream providers....because this is ridiculous. All this is probably symptomatic of what I see as a sunset industry (the parking industry). I know for one, Google doesn't take a bright view of monetizing parked domain traffic (although they still want to collect the spare change).

If you think PC is paying too low you can try bodis, voodoo or DS..
Maybe they pay better for your traffic. Otherwise you can try to reach PC support and ask for reason.
For my traffic, Google feed is the best payout. Others pay 10 time less..
I'm still able to get 1$ a click or more for domains in the proper niche.

Adsense ads pay way more than PPC but you have many more costs as you have to develop a website and so on. If after all this, your ROI for the time spent on each single domain is higher than just parking, go for the develop job.
I stil think that parking offer a nice ROI for the right names, of course revenues are changed from years ago.. I can't say they are lower, i think the names good for parking is different.

The user selling TopCars.com at flippa is showing its parking revenues and they are around 25$ a month.
I've names regged for 5$ or around that are making more than 25$ a month and i've handregged it last year.

It seems ParkingCrew is no better than Namedrive and by all accounts, worse.

Both are under Google feed I gather....

Bodis I don't think uses Google. Am I right?

Anyway PC will surely say they have no control over the CPC....standard response.

I know for a fact Google has changed A LOT of things in Adsense this year and HOW it counts clicks. Adsense has collapsed for many this year. So I imagine things will be bad with parking for those using Google. If not, it's probably going to be....

It's a lot to do with click fraud by humans and bots and lack of advertisers who have lost faith in the PPC model.

from my experience PC is way more better than ND for the average domains.
Bodis, voodoo, PC, DS and others top are google based for 1 tier ads.
They also have yahoo or third part ads but you can't choose them, they are given to you if your name is faillisted.

i don't know about adsense as i only park and sell domains. What i'm seeing is that revenues are more or less constant during these 4 years. When i see high changes is tipically due to the keyword seasonality CPC.
During last months google decreased the RPC for mobile traffic..

All what is online need to fight against cyber fraud and so on.. it is obvious that advertised do not want to pay for a not real interested consumer. If ensure this to an advertiser cost more for google, the slice for publisher is reduced.
About parking revenues, we can't complain, this is what is left in 2015, we can only say thanks to people that do fraud.

BTW in order to stay close to your case, if you can share a real example of the traffic country + niche you are having this very very very very low CTR, i can give you a better opinion considering my personal exp

@ ParkingCrew... First, thanks for the great replies on here..
about 4 days ago I parked 50 domains on PC. is it normal for this early to show 60 uniques and 0.03 revenue? Is it due to the optimization period or could it be due to me being in the USA? My user name is jhtank01 if you need to look at it for whatever reason.. there are a few irrelevant ads and a couple not showing ads but that seems to be with other companies from time to time. thank you!

Dear Datalife,

thanks a lot for your message. We just investigated your account and below are the findings:

24 out of 34 clicks in the past 30 days came from a domain that is blocked by our tier 1 upstream feed provider and thus monetized via our tier2 partners that naturally pay less. The other 10 clicks generated an average CPC of $ 0,424 which is quite above average in my experience. As for your tier1 blocked domain: this one might be automatically blocked by our tier 1 provider as it previously had adsense for developed sites on it. Do you intend to keep it on parking so we can clarify the issue with our upstream feed provider?

Jhtank01: With regards to your question: Could you shed more light as to the traffic origin? It looks like almost all traffic is coming from Yandex to US keyword domains that do not really seem to relate to the traffic origin, thus very low CTR.

Cheers

ParkingCrew,

I moved the domain back to its site, as I don't want to risk the SERP damage that would follow, trading that for parking it for less than $0.01 a click. Too little return to justify.

But if you can clarify with your Google partner and get them to lift the block, I would be happy to park it indefinitely at PC. And grateful for any help you can render. Yes, I used Adsense on it in years past and it used to get a good CPC with Adsense back in those days...

So you said I should continue parking it or can I keep it as a site while you get the answer?

Hi Datalife,

let me find out and get back to you!

 

[amit chowdhury]

Hi parkingcrew,
I have just signed up and when for the first time i log in ( i am using firefox in ubuntu linux) , i could not accept the premium ad provider terms & condintion.

When i login through firefox (in windows), then only i could accept the premium ad provider and added domains to my account.

I thing this problem only persist when an new user login throurgh linux. Your site may not properly reder in linux.

Please look into the matter.

Thanks
Amit

For the past few hours I'm having trouble getting on PC . Site is down half of the times I attempt to log on.
Apparently this happens also with my parked domains

can someone verify if PC is behaving similarly for them?
I need to see if this is on my end or if it's PC

 

[ParkingCrew]

Hi Hypersot,

we had a very, very short window (less than 2 minutes) of connectivity issues at our upstream connection provider earlier today. Other than that, all should be running smoothly. I will send you a debugging link via PM to see if we can identify your issue.
