    Hi,

    There are loads of sites like this and I was wondering what the official name for them is. They are sites that just have some turnkey script installed, where all the outgoing links are automated referral/affiliate links. Generally these seem to be keyworded expired domains where the site looks like a legit site at first glance, and the links are all themed, but there is no actual content just referral links. Generally also the domains are up for sale.

    Is there a specific name for these types of site??

    i think it's just "parked domains"..

    you can set your domain to be parked in your godaddy account etc.

    good luck with it :)

    Parked domain is the process referring to the method for the domain, for the site you call it a parking page.

    Yup, parked domains sounds the most logical of terms in my opinion.
