Domainparking

The concept of domain parking (including domain parking ) refers to the temporary placement of an Internet domain with advertising or other content to a later use or sale of the domain.

Objectives

The domain parking enables domain owners not to leave temporarily unneeded unused domains, but instead to generate the corresponding receipts, thus to park so through the placement of advertising links (such as text ads from Google or Yahoo). The income can arise from the remuneration of the domain parking provider for clicking on the advertising links by visitors to the domains.

The goal is the generation of income, which is higher than the enrollment and administration costs of the domain. Instead of configuring each domain, a sale or a lease may be the goal.

The domain name may be for terms not yet or no longer active Internet projects, known terms, spelling variations of existing domain name (for example provided with typos ), etc.

In particular, Expired domains are particularly suitable for the temporary domain parking, provided that they are not to be provided with other content.

A professional approach

In Germany, there are several commercial vendors that allow domain owners to park domains. Some providers also offer additional sales and auction services for domains.

In addition, there are commercial vendors that Expired Domains register according to the wishes of the customer and automatically populate with content, so as to allow a varied domain parking, without the customer having to make even technical interventions.

The visitor flows consist of both results of search engines or links from other sites still exist (especially in Expired Domains ), as well as from direct submissions of domains in the input line of the browser.

Criticism

Some Internet users find with conventional techniques parked domains as disturbing, because it includes commercials hardly content is the classical domain parking usually available on such sites.

Through the further development of the classic technologies now exist but also generators intended to offer visitors of parked domains added value.
