WhyPark Optimization, Support & Wishlist

[HiSoC8Y]

ok guys,

i think we need a thread where we can all discuss whypark, get and give help to other users, talk about how to improve and all of all, a wishlist. Give your suggestion on which options and features you would like to see.

Just so you know,

I'm NOT related to the whypark team, I'm just a member, like everyone else.

I have a fairly simple question about Whypark. I signed up last week and am starting to move some under performing names from fabulous to try it out.

I don't see any type of "control panel" where I can see if I am generating any revenue? I must be missing something real obvious here.

Would y'all kindly help an old man out please?

I want to be able to see how much money I've made or not made.

Whypark is not a traditional parking company that displays ads on your sites.

Did you add your Adsense code to each site?

No sir, i did not. I guess that's how it works huh? Please be gentle

Concerning the RSS feeds... we are going to be adding this soon, so the RSS is integrated into the site instead of using JavaScript.

The server move went really smoothly and we didn't have any downtime. The only planned downtime was for the domain manager, so we could keep the data sync'd. That was scheduled for 2 hours, but was only offline for 20 minutes. The sites all remained active during that time.

If you're not using our nameservers (ns1.whypark.com and ns2.whypark.com) and manage your own DNS, be sure that you update the A record to 207.58.206.106. We sent out an email and also had the notice when logging in through the domain manager. The old servers are now offline, so it sounds like you have the old DNS still. Anyone having problems, please email us at [email protected] and we can help you out. The only change is in the DNS though, so if you change your A record, you'll be fine.

The new layout issue with the [[image]] placeholder has been fixed this morning as well. Sorry for the inconvenience.

jerry, you need to add your own advertising code for any revenue figures to start coming in. You could use adsense, ypn or maybe some affiliate marketing products from clickbank.

Nice to see someone from VA at last.

i was wondering how you create a sitemap for each whypark site so that it can be submitted to google webmaster tools to get added and approved. how does whypark automatically create a sitemap for any sites you have?

any help would be great thanks??

 

[earnbussi]

isnt paying 100$ for why park too high!
well i have no clue abt them

 

[avi2l]

New WP templates. Look pretty good for switching it up.

 

[whypark]

name0724 - we automatically create an XML sitemap for each of your WhyPark domains. It's always at www.[yourdomain]/google-sitemap.cfm. For example: http://www.affengine.com/google-sitemap.cfm. You can submit your XML sitemaps at www.google.com/webmasters/tools/.

I'm glad to hear everyone likes the new templates. I hope everyone has seen a great improvement on our servers since the recent move as well.

Thanks,
Craig

Hi Craig,

I have been using free parking systems. However, I have recently found good point about whypark - the changing contents and listed in the search engine. I have a question here - what is the chances that the parked domain will be in the top 10-20 of the list of search result of a niche word(s) in a search engine. Do you have any example? DO the search engine know that the domain is just a parked domain, so give some penalty to it.

Cheers,

Hello Craig,

May i know where the content comes from? Does WP has the legal rights to serve it?

I saw someone has asked the same question before but not being answered. http://www.namepros.com/parking-and-traffic-monetization/341018-whypark-com.html

 

[NPKJB]

The articles come from http://www.searcharticles.net/ .

humdomains - ranking for niche keywords is really where WhyPark excels. We never claim that you can get setup and start ranking first for a hugely competitive word like "mortgage". In a recent newsletter, we made the recommendation that focusing on niche keywords is the way to go to create a focused, themed site. As an example, in the past 30 days, there were about 120,000 different keywords that brought visitors to a WhyPark site. It's lots of niche searches that are developing traffic, over one big keyword. An example on Google is "domain appraisals". The 4th listing down (domainappraisalscam) is a WhyPark hosted site. They do a nice job of adding custom content and keeping the site focused. This isn't a site we own, but rather a customer doing a nice job with WhyPark. They also promote WhyPark for additional affiliate revenue.

I just make www.presidentdairy.com with whypark, I appreciate any coments

 

[xrvel]

Is it free to register in whypark?

 

[MildSeven]

Maybe even if it's a small fee, I would like to send emails from the sites that I park. like, [email protected].

 

[jerry t]

I would like a way to bulk edit using the stock templates on the layout page. I see where you can bulk edit if customizing, but I'm not able to that using the pre-made templates.

 

[gwkg]

Are there any plans for search engine friendly URLs? I notice all the articles use links similar to: article.cfm/id/241591

Won't sites using the same keywords/articles have duplicate content problems or is the goal just to get the main page indexed, not all the content pages?

 

[avi2l]

whats the best way to get news feeds on a whypark site?

 

[whypark]

MildSeven - We've been looking into offering an email service with domains as an add-on. It's on our "to do" list, but is probably at least 4-6 months off right now while we work on other development items.

Jerry T - what you could do is open up one of your sites where you're using our stock template and just save that into your own saved templates; even if you didn't change anything. Then, you could make any tweaks you want and apply it to your other domains.

GWKG - The current setup of the URL's are very search engine friendly and easy for SE's to spider and follow. I assume you're looking at trying to add keywords to the URL's like /this-pages-keyword.htm. That I'm not sure about yet. While some sites may be using the same articles, the mix of keywords that each customer uses is unique, so you'll get a unique blend of related articles on each page and a different niche theme.

avi2l - Right now, it would be through JavaScript, but that will be cosmetic only and for users to use; it wouldn't help with search engines. However, we do have adding RSS feeds through the domain manager on our development list. So, you'll be able to choose your feed source and add it to your site. It will be pulled in and viewed just like standard HTML.

Thanks for all of the posts everyone.
