I wonder how people could place adsense code [google.com...]

on domains that generetaes less then 750,000 page views per month?

There are many sites with 10-15 visitors per day and they place adsence code for parking domains.

How could it be possible?

"your sites generate more than 750,000 page views per month"

I think they speak of a total on 750,000 across all domains.

10-15 visitors per day are 300-450 per month, all you need is 2.000 domains like that ...

But how can i prove it to Google?

Even if i have 2000 domains what is a proof that they generate a lot of traffic?

Well even if you dont prove it..once you park them with google they will see how many impressions you got in a day or two and calculate on that. If you lied they will disable your domain parking.

ONce parked would your traffic slowly decrease seeing there's no content to keep you up in the engines?

The whole idea about domainpark and other domain parking programs is that you don't get traffic from search engine

The traffic comes from direct navigation (people typing in the domain names directly into the browser address window).

Someone looking for widgets types in widgets.com hoping to find a place that sells widgets.

That type of traffic never dies down really.

What has to be realized is that not all the clicks come from 'direct navigation'. Quite a few sites have been abondoned but remain listed as links on other pages and in web directories. My experience is that very few people recheck the links on their websites, and therefore traffic to abondoned sites remains existent for a long while.

That is so weird. I have been wondering for ages if there was such a site (we all use it on this board in place of a real site/product when we are explaining things)

Lo and behold there is. It doesn't explain what a widget is though :)

Widgets.com is parked by none other than the Domain King, a/k/a Domain Father, a/k/a eRealEstate himself.

Clever move.

That's why Example.com is out favorite WebmasterWorld domain.

Example.com is a reserved domain. Try it out.

And use it: Example.com. Spread the word. :)

Without looking it up, I think a widget is that little thing you send your deposit to the teller in when you are doing drive-through banking.

So all you do is buy domains you think that will gather address bar traffic and if you seem to get traffic google will let you park them to ads..?

yyyuuuuummmmm.... candy.com :)

fascinating read, BTW, widgets.com. can't believe it's the first time I've heard of domain king, while I'm sure I've stumbled upon many of their parked domains.

I think you have to host them yourself. So if you are paying $2.50 a month for hosting domains and earning $2.00 a month per domain from AdSense you are losing $.50 a month per domain plus registration costs.

I think you have to find very very cheap hosting and registration fees and have hundreds or thousands of decent domain names to make money with this concept. Or, have some very good domain names (which are all gone now unless you really pay up).

If I have a good traffic parked site, I would rather invest time and effort to turn it into a more useful site!

Here's the basic idea of traffic domains and building AdSense sites.

Traffic domains offer a baseline of daily traffic. Therefore, you have a certain level of predictability, a good thing in business and finance. If a search engine loves your website today - that's great - but with type-in traffic you will not starve for wont of search engine love.

The other nice - no, significant - attribute of type-in domains is their tendency to act as traffic filters. People looking for Miami Widgets, who type in MiamiWidgets.com, are likely in the hunt for such widgets. Chances are that if your AdSense ads offer MiamiWidgets for sale you will not only get a click but you will also get a conversion or other desired act.

That's the basics: Baseline traffic and filtered traffic.

Good domains are a good thing. They're still out there. You just have to turn over more rocks these days to find them. However I managed to pick up more than a few - for registration price alone in recent months - that have already paid for themselves. Paid simply by parking them. Domains with no preexisting link history or search engine traffic. Just type-ins, people looking for . . something precise, either the thing itself or information about the thing/whatever.

Not the easiest thing for noobs but if you do a lot of reading you'll get the idea of how to go about turning over the rocks without getting bitten.
