Making own domain parking page

[hermes]

I have parked some of my domains at Sedo and am just so, so shocked at how low their payments are per click. So, Im thinking to make my own domain parking webpage with adsense. Point all my domains to this same, single domain parking webpage. Has anyone else experience of doing something like this?

The problem with parked pages is that they are not allowed according to the AdSense T&C. Only if you have at least 750,000 page views per month you can apply for Google's special domain parking program.

what i am suggesting is doing domain parking "on the sly". making my own domain parking set up with adsense. Not using the official program.

Maybe I should expand on this. Basically I have some really nice domains and I want to park them - they are due some nice type-in traffic. Now, I havent got the page views to get into googles domain parking program and the partnership programs out there pay embarrasing amounts. So, what is the solution? That I make a single index.html and point all my domains to this index.html. Put adsense on this index.html. I basically have my own domain parking system. I just posted to find out if any1 else has done this kind of thing.

Your question has been answered. This is not allowed. Go ahead and try it, you will be terminated.

Well, then, it's simply a matter of just how sly you ARE, and how willing you are to accept the consequences if you aren't as sly as you think.

I guess it is foolish of me to carry on down this road. It is just that I am so frustrated by the low payouts of Sedo.

I too have a domain that got a fair amount of typed in traffic. I had it on one of those parked domain services. It was making about $25/month. After several months I noticed that I hadn't gotten paid. I checked on the domain and saw that it was showing a blank page. I contacted the company and they told me that most of the revenue had been generated by click fraud so they weren't paying me and they they took down the domain. That was a load of cr*p and it turned me off to those kinds of services.

So, what is the solution? That I make a single index.html and point all my domains to this index.html. Put adsense on this index.html.

Ive been doing this with that domain for about 8 months now. I didn't know it was against the AS TOS though.

You could also redirect the index page of your parked domain to a subfolder on one of your legit sites. This way it would just be one more page on your site with AW.

myparkeddomain.com redirects to myothersite.com/parkeddomainkeyword

From my experience you have to put enough relevant text on the page with AW or you'll just get pubic service ads.
