Where is This Traffic Coming From?

    I've recently parked a .mobi domain at Sedo, and it's getting 20+ unique views a day consistently.
    .mobi is a newly launched extension, and I don't see how I'm getting this traffic. Anyone got any thoughts?

    Have you checked the back links of the parked url?

    Like I said, this is a brand new extension, and the domain was registered just after the land rush, so neither is possible.

    why don't you "un-park" it for a day or two, set up a 1 page or blank page website with a statscounter or check the weblog or webalizer logs?

    No you said it was recently parked. .mobi has been available since 2006...

    Yeah, that would be an option. Thanks.
    I was the first to reg it after the land rush 8 months ago. I haven't done anything with the domain, so no backlinks.

    It's actually a premium variant that I regged early in the game. Maybe that has something to do with it.

    It can be anything, nobody is able to tell for certain
    Host it for few days to see the traffic as people suggested
