How to add For Sale to whois information?

Hi,

I have set up some tracking on some of the domains that I own. After a day or two I've noticed that some people/bots visit whois results - then click through to the domain.

I'd like some of these domains sold and thought that I should add For Sale to the whois information. This technique is especially suitable as the domains are all in use (php header redirection to affiliate programs) - hence they don't actually have For Sale on them.

Is there a particular part of the whois I should add it to (.com and .co.uk domains)? Does it just go into the First Name part?

Thanks

How about an administrator email address something like
<this-site-for-sale@www.yourdomain.com>

Presumably that would go into the catchall email for that domain.
If not, you could set up that as a valid address. -Larry

I've also had success adding it to the Address Line 2 area of the whois contact information.
