| Domain Parking
I will list in my
opinion and rate them the best parking
programs i have been involved in and also
mention why parking it is a great way
to earn money. Also why its needed for
domains that do not have sites.
Why
park?
What would you rather
do leave your registered domains with
your reg company. Or point the name servers
to a parking company and earn money from
them. I think its an obvious choice. The
other benefit is your domain is gaining
traffic and popularity which of course
earns you more money and increases the
value of the site. It is also a nice way
of getting traffic whilst you develop your
site.
There are a few parking
companies out there but experience has
shown three that really shine above the
others and one of them Fabulous.com is
superb if you have a big portfolio of
domain names. Normally you need at least
fifty to park with them if you have very
good ones or one hundred to basically
guarentee parking. Saying that though Fabulous.com are happy to review portfolios of any size. It really all depends on the quality of the domains in the portfolio rather than the number.
The
first program i will mention is Sedo,
these guys have a majority share in domain
parking, and lately I have started to
see more and more domains selling via
them. I do have one critism and is the
pay per click revenue seems to be dropping
an example. An ad i have watched used
to be worth .85 euros per click which
is nice but the same add lately is only
producing .15 euros this seems to be a
common discussion in most forums i belong
to regarding Sedo. That a side the new
interface is great and the amount of people
using it and the volume of domains speak
for themselves. A very professional bunch.
I
rate these guys 4/5

The second one i
will mention is Afternic these guys have
been around quite some time and many domains
have been sold by them for people. They
also have one of the best pay per click
systems around. Personally i left them,
they did not seem to update as much as
i would of liked to have seen and the
site interface seems quite out of date.
Lots of people still rate these guys,
so try them and get your own view. The
site forum is not very active either which
in my eyes is not a good thing.
I
rate these guys 3/5
Ok for my third and
final Parking site review, this would
have to be Fabulous. These guys are extremely
professional, every email i have sent
is answered quickly and they will even manage
your portfolio for you. Making sure each
one of your domains is being optimised
correctly in their pay per click system.
Their new program Premium 4 is unbelievely good,
the pay rate on click throughs is extremely
high. To join fabulous though you
do normally need a big portfolio of domains but
for the big portfolio holders these guys
in my opinion rule the parking world on
the internet. People with smaller domain portfolios still submit to them. They are happy to review portfolios of any size as mentioned above, it is more about the quality of domains than the size of your portfolio. Back to the review, the interface you get when you join Fabulous is like an
expensive piece of software you can do so much with it. A small example of this is Registering domains, Whois info, Manage domains (Transfer, Push, Renew, Forwarding, Nameservers etc) Choose parking programs from a massive list of topics to best suite your domain (or leave it to them the experts as said before), Valuations, Sell domains, Research and so much more. Truely amazing stuff indeed.
I
rate these guys 5/5
I would like
to briefly mention a forum that i can not
speak enough about they also have a live
chat facility and the more you post the
more forum dollars you earn to spend on
there site. The group of domainers on this
site are superb in every way. They truely
know there stuff. So if you need more help
or tips and advice i for one am always floating
around there on the forums or in chat plus
so many other professional domainers are
also. So sign up and pop in.
Have a parking program
you wish me to review on the site click
here and tell me about it.
