Directory owners - can we put our parked domains in Directories?

    If you are a directory owner and have parked domains

    Is that a good idea to add your parked sites to your directories?

    Directory could be General or Niche or Bidding!

    What are the pros and cons?
    Providing you add to the relevant category based on parked domain keyword?

    TOTAL SPAM - which user wants to go to a blank domain full of spammy adverts and popups

    it's not a good idea, google easily detect parked pages and they could penalize you for listing them on your dir

    Not only is it spam, but it is against EVERY TOS for every parking domain company/website

    I think backlinks are fine for parked domains with the parking companies, no? its only things like the use of adwords etc to generate traffic to a parked domain is frowned upon, im not sure.

    Bad idea. I've just rejected over 30 parked domains in one of my free directories...

    Now if we only had a "mod" or "software" to tell us when that happens since validation only picks up dead links...

    Last time criss was here he said he was working on it so... :)

    thx
