question Zero-Click is forwarding to porn site

[NitroJunkie]

Hi,

Another question for the pros...

I have a bunch of domains that are blocked by the upstream feed provider. My parking company put them on the Zero-Click scheme. The problem is that the visitors are getting forwarded to porn sites which I don't like at all.

For those blocked .com domains, I also have the .net version of the exact keyword (vice versa).
Can I stop parking blocked ".com" domains and forward them to the parked ".net" counterpart domains?

Example:
I have the following domains parked:
- qwerty.com (parked but blocked and being forwarded to porn sites due to Zero-Click scheme)
- qwerty.net (parked and operating fine)

I want to stop parking qwerty.com and forward it to qwerty.net. Is this OK?

No this is not ok. Its not allowed to fwd Google Blocked domain to domain without Google block. You could lose your account or your entire portfolio might get Gooogle banned. Its not worth actually because the consequences can hit hard.

If you dont want zero click, you may put your domain to DS or DA.

Thank you decades ... seems like I don't have any other path. The hardest part is to live with the rules imposed on you by others. This don't allowed, that don't allowed ... what the f...

I really appreciate you taking time to save me from a mistake...

It is not allowed, but actually some of the people (around 15%) do exactly that. Sometimes I check the parked pages of others and getting redirected. But its quite risky.

Hi NitroJunkie,

We all want to maximize our revenue utilizing all possible avenues and we want you to succeed. The rules we all follow can feel arbitrary but are there to protect you and our advertisers so that we can provide you the best return we can on your investment. At its simplest we each bring something valuable to the table; we bring our advertisers and you bring your traffic (the domain is the method by which you get the traffic to us).

When an upstream feed provider Faillists a domain, in general, they have determined that the quality or appropriateness of that domain’s traffic is not suitable to their advertisers. This is something completely according to their discretion, and as they require a very high level traffic quality, this discretion is also one of the reasons some feed providers have the ability to be one of the highest paying advertising networks out there, but they are not the only one.

Its why we work with several advertising partners and networks to provide the best range of revenue options for cases where our main upstream feed provider is not interested in being a part of the mix. In some cases, this will be Zero-click but many times we can provide advertising options that are not.

If you ever have questions on if something meets our Terms of Service let us know. We will work with all of our clients to maximize their revenue.

Thanks,

Stefanie

Hi Stefanie,

Thank you for taking time to write down the extensive view on monetization which is the problem of all of us here. Yes I hate my decent domains forward to porn sites. And I hate being stuck in this reality.

As you said, blocking a domain is completely the discretion of the feed provider. I call this monopolistic... anyway.

Thank you very much

Your welcome.

Have you contacted your account manager or customer support with that parking company?

If the adult ads are sporadic, it could be unintentional and that ad may need to be removed or reclassified to the parking service’s adult stream. If you're receiving all adult ads, your domain may have been misclassified as adult, which can sometimes be changed. In the case where it cannot be changed they may be able to narrow down why you’re getting adult ads: previously a porn site, certain keywords in the domain name, etc.

Good luck
