    Hey guys,

    I have about 100 spare domains, some are pretty good. Thinking about using parked.com's free service. What do you guys think?

    Will i need my own windows hosting?

    Thanks!

    They don't pay well. Good service and nice place though. People that good money parking, usually don't park there!

    Beyond revenue matters, if you are planning to develop any of such domains it would be a better option create your own parking page with advertising to generate some revenue. Parked domains are archived by archive.org and unless you don't care your future customers look back it might be okay.

    You don't need hosting when you park names. As for Parked.com, I recently changed to them from ParkingPanel because I had some issues with them. They have been ok, but not as good for adult names.

    I would say apply for a parked.com application. If for some reason you get rejected you have alternatives like imonetize and parkingpanel.

    imonetize is a unique one as it switches between 4 parking providers during the day. Parkingpanel by far is a better payer and also do well for non adult names atleast in my case, but issues with htmlindex's account has also got me worried.

    Wishing you good luck and may you find a suitable service.

    I use Parked.com and Namedrive.com. I like parked because of their templates but the nice thing about Namedrive is you can see where your visitors are coming from and change the language setting which shows ads in their native language increasing your CTR.

    If you get accepted by Parked.com thats the way to go. IMHO They pay every two weeks and good support.

    you have to experiment and try a few, some domains seem to work better at other places.

    If you have any trouble getting into parked.com please let me know I have an account manager that can push it through, although you need to use my referral link.

    I agree 110%. You should experiment to see what does well where.

    I've tried a TON of domain parking services. If you want any advice depending on a name/traffic, let me know.

    He is Right. I think you should try Sedo. Because I am currently parking them and they are doing pretty fine.
