WhyPark

[RJ]

We lost our popular discussion thread about WhyPark. It was deleted by forum software when the thread starter's account was deleted (at his request). Sorry about that everyone.

This is a new thread being established to talk about WhyPark.

Hi,
The content issue has been discussed quite a few times in the proper Whypark thread, unfortunately, all the valuable information and just about all the knowledgeable members are lost to us now. I am sure that the Whypark team will be looking at this problem and hopefully working on something to improve the situation. Other similar platforms are harvesting relevant and up to date content from the web, and seem to be doing better with this method, but for how long ? there must come a time when, if more platforms start to use this method, duplication of content will increase, and you are back to the same situation. The only real solution seems to be writing your own original content for your domains and hope that Whyparks servers are not automatically flagged. I would be interested to here other members views.

Why I dont understand is that I have 130 sites with whypark,some have 6 pages indexed with google in 2 years.Some have articles from 2007.
And duplicate content would that not be an issue??
So 130 sites with whypark,have google ads and am getting 11 hits out of 130 websites in 1 day.Not good,whats wrong,I am not really impressed with whypark other than easy to set up site.
example is iwines.ca been with whypark for 6 months and if you site index at google see example only 1 page indexed.Thats not good in my opinion,suggestions,comments,ideas?????

Try hostgator and xsitepro v2.

I have given up on whypark. Early returns were better than parking, but the $ for clicks has been abysmal for some time now. + Bing won't index any of the sites. Gotta develop to make a buck now.

 

[MasterOfMyDomains]

I never use whypark for monetization,google or affiliates.Use only for content but if they can only get 1 page indexed in 6 months not worth 120 a year.
Thanks for tip Dtagr,snow on the hills,eh!

More importantly, soon be ice on the lakes so I don't have to tow my boat to go fishing!!:tu:

As for the contentjust make sure you got alot. I am going to try to do this. I am going to place 30 whypark articles on each site, then add NEW content 1 page at a time (with no real rush maybe a page a week) as I do this I will cut 1 article from whypark to offset down to 29 articles and so on. Work on one site at a time.
With the idexed pages, I found my .ca's didn't get indexed as well as others. Even with a great name it was hard. I just recently dropped almost all my .ca's. I am now down to owning 34 domains and only 3 are .ca's now. Only 2 of my .ca's have pages indexed. My .coms, out of 10 of them, I only have 1 with indexed pages. The rest are .info domains, 21 one of them, of which only 13 of them have pages indexed.
But all of then had pages indexed at one point so they show up in searches still. And there are alot of directories used every day that will accept your domain. Submit to all the free ones.

Yesterday, I opened whypark account ($10 month). I have added 10 sites so far.

Additions done.

1. Keywords added in Menu options. (Each keyword brings new articles)

2. In the footer I have placed link to wiki (for same domain key word)

3. Added one original article on domain subject (one custome page on keyword).

4. Submitted site to Google, Yahoo and Bing.

5. My own article added to article base and Ezine with link to site..


My questions:

1. Keeping Google adsense on why park site is good or keep why park ads.

2. Is it possible to upload your sites and then have why park articles display in column.

3. Possible to see actual code of why park so that I can change as i feel. (Currently it only shows tags in source file so you have to add only under those tags.

4. Under my $10 package they say social networking, Once I logged in I couldn't see any option which lets me broadcast site on socialnetowrking sites.

Just when I thought it was dead. I have some recent revenue spikes with some of my Whypark sites. It appears that 70% of the traffic is coming from Yahoo searches. Leaving Google with 20%, type ins 10%. Bing still refuses to index any of my sites, all 106.

Anyone else seeing similar results? Any suggestions on how to improve the Google percentages or bring in Bing?

Maybe someone from Whypark could address this here in the thread. We would all like to see this improve.

I have the same results:

(1) Most of my income come from Yahoo searches from my older domains that were indexed and ranked high by Yahoo. I don't know whether this remains true for my newer domains; that is, whether Yahoo is indexing them. This has been the case since when my domains were on Imodo. Most of the search came from Yahoo.

(2) Google indexes my domains, but almost all do not rank on their keyword, except for a very few domains.

(3) Not indexed by Bing as far as I know.

I'm doing more to earn less money than I did in the past. Also, WhyPark will have to build more sophisticated features, otherwise the downward trend will continue.

I'm not complaining. Its not like I am paying a lot for their services. But I am hoping WhyPark management has some sort of plan.

Hi TT,
It would be better to use the Parked/Whypark forum if you need responses from Craig or Donny. Due to problems a while back, we lost the Whypark thread and all the info it contained.
Craig is very responsive on their own forum.

Any theories or ideas as to why Google is not ranking for the keywords on your sites? Is fresh content the answer? I confess to mostly using Whypark like my other parking accounts as a set and forget type of deal.

I suppose I can add some content to a few sites and see what happens.

I appreciate people posting their experiences here. I don't have the time or inclination to join another forum.

It is the content. My keywords are niche long tail keywords and the available articles probably don't match them perfectly. And I don't think Google factors in the keyword domain name into their algorithm much anymore. Yahoo seems to, but I don't know how long that will last.

I've been trying to add original articles but it is difficult given time constraints and number of domains I have.

[cantstop]

not politically correct

I'd like to hear if there is anyone else other than Sadr who had their Adsense disabled by using Whypark. Sadr's case is to be expected as he reduced all his articles to 0, but after Rick Schwartz's blog about how alot of site owners had their Adsense accounts closed, possibly due to having only syndicated content, I'd like to know if anyone else using Whypark has the same problem.

g man hates whypark i have had that happen too.also.i have had 180 sites de indexed at wp .but some whypark sites are left alone maybe 10%..since it is paid for i have still sites there .here is how to avoid problems ....use no whypark content of any kind..just use as host [you can put in own css and content] so basically it is a free host account...avoid gman ads if possible.use whypark ads if profitable.if you do that you will be fine....based on my multi year experience.I would think long and hard about putting any truly cherished domain there however, as one never knows when the next update attack will occur.

Its been a while since I checked on the WP thread! But I can't believe the old one is gone... and where is Wayne?! L2Ride?

Well anyway, I remembered by WP account details and seems the sites I added there are pretty much staying the same. Generated enough through Adsense over the past year to cover all WP fees (the old $99 fee)...

Here are a couple I made about a year ago:

http://www.FreshRecipe.com
Steroids - Information & Real Life Stories

Could do with some content I guess.


btw. If anyone has contact with Wayne, please send me a PM. I need to get in touch and can't find his email.

Thanks.

Whypark has its own forum now, I don't know if I'm allowed to post a link, but the link is in your control panel.

I'm really diggin those sites you've made, very nice! Did you make the template yourself or get it from elsewhere?

 

[akai10]

Customizing Whypark sites

Thanks Andy, I'll be checking out the forum shortly. And yes the templates I customized myself. I sent you PM btw.

Hi, really liked your template for your WhyPark sites as well. Can you give me an idea of the CTR you get for those sites.

Tks in advance

I am doing a trial ATM trying to work out if using adsense or whypark feed is better, nothing in it from what i see so far.

 

[firefly]

The big difference that I see is that your adsense account might get disabled due to duplicate content issues, depending on the whim of the big G...the WP feed on the other hand won't.

Well, that is always a possibility, but they have not done so so far (adsense disabled), my biggest concerns are that they don't always show the ads every impression, and now paying in non US dollars, along with now offering their own parking service.

Basically i over the big G, and use Bing for search now, im trying to get the big G out of my life, so i can be my own person again!

After a 3 month trial I am down grading from a paid account as It has not been viable for me.

Works for others :tu:

Im not so sure Bing picks up whypark pages?

I'm sorry to hear it's not worked out. I have never used a paid account as my domains do not warrant that.

I think you need premium domains with traffic to justify the cost. I have made the $100 initial fee already, so anythings a bonus for me now.

I had a few referrals as well which was nice.
