Hello everyone

We want to introduce Parkingminisite.net, a new concept for monetization of domains that will vastly improve the current options for parked domains

This is an automatic generation of mini-site with relevant content and fully indexed in Google. You can see the official website at:

http://www.parkingminisite.net

We invite you to take a look and try the, we can say that there are many users satisfied with the results and whose domains are monetized better than in any other system.

Do you have any data that compares your services with that of a regular parking service ?

a) nothing "new" about this at all, its very "last domain year"
b) sample pages look pretty horrible
c) you need to learn how to spell "monetize"
d) Minisites are not the way to develop keyword domains .........

Hi Squirrel,

DevHub offers you a service by which yo can create a site and then download it to install it in your server. All the work must do it the user afterwords.

Parkingminisite is different, you introduce your domain, point the DNS and configure some parameters and the site is created. The developement is hosted in our server and we attend every suggestion to help or modify anything.

About the data of income and visits, we have a user for example that has posted some data. He started with a domain that had 87 visits and 2,5€ in september in the traditional parking, he moved it to parkingminisite and had 148 visits and 1,92€ in october, 304 and 4,9€ in november, 338 and 6,8€ in december... and so on.

The link to the post is:

Thanks for the suggestion about the logo, is already changed.

Those don't look like 50,000% or even 500% increases in income to me. But then again, maths was never my strongest subject at school.

b) sample pages look pretty horrible
c) you need to learn how to spell "monetize"
d) Minisites are not the way to develop keyword domains .........

Hi domainguru,

We'll answer you in order:

a) Many of our actual users had the same reaction at first, but nowadays the fact is that the number of them increases fast because they have not seen anything that works so well anywhere else.

b) Templates are simple but effective and nice for most people, that does not mean that has to be the best for everybody and that's why we add new ones always with the latest modern designs.

c)We agree with you with the language, we are not english but we try to translate the best we can. We'll do better with time.

d)Right, minisites are not the best way to develop a keyword domain, but what we do is to give "parked domains" a development full of relevant content, a design, rss options, sell links and more, with no work for the user.
There are already companies that develop sites for clients, but if a user has 300 domains it is a little expensive to develop all of them. We give them a very good solution.

And about the spam, we too recive many emails similar to that one you make reference, but are obviously a fake. We are serious and clear with our work because we want users to be with us as longer as possible and happy with the results of visits and income.

We hope we answered to all your questions the best way.

Best regards.

Hi Cowboy,

We cannot promise anything like that first evolve because it will be a fraud, no company can promise something like that, only can offer a service and try to make it the best possible to keep its clients, who are the ones that have to try the service and decide if they like it or not.

Parking Minisite is free and anyone can try it by itself.

Welcome to IDNForums.
As you can see our guys take no prisoners here...but consider that a complement ;)

Between all the members here are probably 50,000+ domains being managed and most are looking for a better monetization solution.

So...hope you can take some strong criticism, and also take the suggestions to build a unique platform for monetizing IDNs. I think it would be a good study to go ahead and do some test IDNs with your system. That could demonstate the results of your system. I am sure you will have many volunteers.

Just a note on your home page- its a typo..."motetize" should be monetize.

I agree your templates are weak, do you have any templates in foreign languages, or with relevant pictures...ie Asia, Gambling, Pets. Maybe even open a development suggestions where customers can talk to your designers. Any chance to have templates where the "user" can upload pictures or a even a bit of text?

I joined and threw one up to see how well it worked. It looked like the site only supported Spanish and English so I used a Spanish IDN. The system worked easily but it didn't really provide any content. As a result I guess that domains in other languages will work too.

Since there really isn't any content I don't think this meets the terms and conditions of Adsense. (you provide your Adsense ID for the ads) so you either add content on your own or you run the risk of having your Adsense account shut down. It is really just multi-page parking.

I think you have a decent start here but it is going to need a bit more work.

Hi bwhhisc,

We are glad to be part of your comunity.

We like criticism, that is what has made our system grow and get stronger, and what we need to make it better for our clients.

Our hope is to build a solid domain monetization system whith the help of the comunity, at that point we are always open to change, modify or improve anything that will make it better for them.

About IDNs, we have the system full ready for spanish domains, but we are already working in other languages that will be available soon. We invite you to try the system and make any suggestion, critic or need, and we'll study it quickly. There is a suggestion box in the official web and other in the user's control panel.

There are actually 4 templates for minisites and 2 for geodomains as you can see in the demo section of our official web. In the minisite templates you can add your own text and photos, videos, links...

Thanks for the remark about the typo, it is already fixed.

Best regards. Parking Minisite team.

Hi Clotho,

Thanks for the comment and for trying the system.

Could you tell us which domain you entered in the system? If the title is not well configured or is too long the content does not appear.

For example, if your domain is: "idndomainmonetization.com" the title shoud be like "IDN domain monetization" and the system will find the relevant feeds with photos, videos, blogs, links, news,..., and will show the content.

We look forward to hear your comments for making the system better.

Clotho
10th February 2010, 06:16 PM
The domain I used to test with was **URL removed at request of member**. I needed something quick to test your system out. I guess I will have to change it now.

I tried out DevHub and it crashed and burned miserably so you have that going for you. It would seem that DevHub doesn't support IDN's.

What other multipage minisite developers can I test out?

Clotho
10th February 2010, 06:23 PM

Some of the content is starting to show up. The links to the videos don't work but the blogs do and it managed to find some pictures as well.

We noticed that the title ended with .com and without spaces that is why it was not working correctly. We changed to "tarjeta de crédito" and works fine.

The keywords must be separated written separated by comas, otherwise will not generate the subpages right.

We noticed too tha you added a new IDN in chinese, we inform you that our system does not support IDN in other languages than Spanish or English yet, so it will not work.

We'll try to improve other languages as soon as possible, but chinese, japanese, hebrew, arabic, and so, will probably be the last ones.

We hope you enjoy the system and compare results.

Actually the site I added next was Japanese. I was eager to see how it would fare. I would recommend working on the Asian/Cyrillic/Arabic languages sooner than later. This is where you will find the most pent up demand. Monetizing the latin based languages like French, German or Spanish is much much easier than monetizing any of the languages that do not use latin characters.

I will test your platform with one or two spanish idns.

Hi Clotho,

According to your request and to the needs of other users we are going to improve the system to support IDNs in other languages, we are now working on it. If you point your japanese domain again to our system we'll start with the japanese language, we already have something done.

Thank you.

I would like to see the Japanese language be implemented.
I see quite a few Japanese domains with average RPM above $250 through adsense, usually 15 visits bring in $4+ in a day. If only we can increase the traffic!

I'm delighted to say overnight I got another "random" spam mail from one of my domain addresses.

Can you tell me in public why you feel it is ok to spam domain owners with your "offers"? And don't pretend you haven't, because I have both emails now, both totally unsolicited.

I'm surprised you are getting any feedback at all on this forum. Personally, I have a golden rule with people that spam me.

Domainguru, we make NO SPAMM at all, we do not have an authomatic mailing system or anything like that. We always present to the people directly. As domainers that we are too, we don't either like spamm.

If you read at the end of the mail it says "visit www.domainparkingservice.net", that is different from "www.parkingminisite.net", is not a problem of spelling! we recieved that kind of spamm too in some of ours, that is why we set a kaptcha code and don't get it anymore, we suggest you to do the same.

We invite you to try the system and compare it with other services.

IMO that would potentially yield the best results if you have advertisers.

Hello,

We have been working in new IDN languages during the last days due to some user's suggestions. Now we are glad to inform that the system now supports 26 languages:

Spanish, English, Japanese, Chinese, Russian, Greek, Arabic, French, German, Portuguese, Hindi, Italian, Thai, Korean, Hebrew, Croatian, Turkish, Romanian, Slovak, Swedish, Lithuanian, Czech, Finnish, Danish, Belarusian and Norwegian.

Thank you for your interest, if you need any other language or complement please let us know and we'll work on it.

Hi Clotho,

That is a good question, as we explain in our official web, the adsense id rotates by a rand function so it shows 50% of the times a page is viewed user's id and 50% our id. In conventional parkings the percentage of benefit for the user is much lower and domains get less visits and therefore less income, that's why our users are very satisfied with it.

Anyway, we are now working on an affiliate system by which each user will have an affiliate id and will earn a percentage of the domain's income of the user/s that he introduces into the system.

There will be another advantage too which is that if a user enters a certain number of domains and all of them are full configured, this user will earn a higher percentage depending on how many domains enters.

All this will be well explained in the official website as soon as we have it working.

We hope you find this features interesting and useful.

Best regards.

Many would have tried to bullsh*t their way around it.

Appreciate you posting here, seems you are willing to got the extra mile to try and provide a service to members here, hope you can get it to take off for IDNs.

I imagine guess some of us might be willing to try, but how do we insure there is nothing in your system that could infect any computers?

Last but not least, can we get some references of some of your existing customers. You don't have to post publically, maybe pm them to myself or another Administrator so we can more confidently get a feel for the results of your service. Thanks.

Hello bwhhisc,

Thank you for your post, we don’t want people to loose the faith In our service and that is why we are always looking at what customers ask or report to give a quick answer or solution.

About the Trojan, it is not harmful to computers, it is a Russian spammer that gets into some archives of servers even without permissions to introduce its spamm code. Some webmasters we know had the same problem and we helped each other to find the way to solve it. We can tell you that it was fixed definitely a couple hours after we found it and did no damage to anyone. With uncomfortable we meant that is uncomfortable to find that there is something we don’t what to be there.

We have around two hundred customers, some of them come from your forum like “lipps” (administrator). Others come from other forums, USA, UK, Spain,… If you want more information about it we can give you some links to the posts of some of our customers in forums, some of them are in spanish, if you would need any help with translation we could give you a hand.

This little incident has made the system stronger in security and has not stopped it from working perfectly at any time.

Maybe a case of "lost in translation" but a "trojan that is not harmful to computers"? What else does it harm? It certainly seemed to harm your server as Squirrel reported your home page was messed up.

If someone has put a trojan on your server, you should be looking at the consequences for more than a couple of hours, believe me. Some may be obvious, some less so. He may have just messed up your home page as a "cover" for more serious work ..... my server guy would be looking at stuff for a week or more if we discovered we had been compromised in that way.

Hello domainguru,

The server was completely formatted and all archives uploaded again.

Before uploading, whole checking of the system revealed no harm code so we are sure it's fixed. Some changes in the security were done to ensure it will not appear again. We don't think you'll have any trouble.

We want to remark that our work is serious and clear, we give all the information of what is going on all the time, and we want you to know that we are here to help domainers like us with a powerfull service that will benefit everybody, so you could may have a more friendly attitude if you get to know us better.

We charge nothing for our service, give more features and better personal support that actual companies and share benefits increasing percentage of revenue to most active customers. And of course always give a friendly treatment.

Taking advantage of this, we want to say that we already set the affiliate program so every customer can now increase his/her revenue by getting other customers into the system, we didn't find at the moment anyone else doing that.

Contact us for any question,
Parking Minisite team

What exactly did this trojan .js contain that is "not harmful to computers"?

Hello Drewbert,

It was a redirection to a spamm page. It is a trojan that infects .js and index archives in servers adding some code lines. An illegal way of getting masssive clicks. As we said before, other webmasters we know had the same problem during several days and got no damage in their systems until they got rid of it.

We apologize again for the inconvinience.

For any other issue we will be here.

As noted in earlier post they seem to have been hit with a simple script probably uploaded during a configuration.

I think there was a conversation earlier on this forum about another site frequented by many here that may have also been hit with the same "virus" but that is another topic.

It actually did not present a real delima to any visiting systems I am aware of but did create a malformed script in the html code of the servers which triggered several of the virus scanning programs.

Seems to have been created to be a nuisence "virus" created by a simple script kiddie.

It was mislabeled as a "trojan" .gen (for generic) first by avira antivirus then the others as there was no real good catagory to place the "attack" under.

It did not seem to be a browser hijacker, as stated by parking, and removal of any residual effects was and is as easy as clearing the cache of the browser and java program.

This "attack" has been seen world wide and has affected many systems. Patches and updates have already been released to id and protect from this issue.

As far as using parkingminisites I will say

Configuration is quite easy

I like the presenting pages more that sedo and namedrive. I think the user is more apt to click thru the site just because it looks more like a "real" webpage

So far I have not had any problems with g oo gle giving problems about using my pub on the parked page.

When configured with high quality keywords the pages seem to pull in some good ads.

I have not seen any increase in traffic to the sites there but I also have not seen any decrease. It is too early to tell how they will rank in the serps.

Parking does seem to want to be a presence in the idn market and personally I welcome them as we need more resources to promote idns.

There are always downsides to any parking service but they are common to all.

The plus is it takes about 5 minutes to creaste a mini page with ads for each domain when done correctly. That gives you a chance to try and bring in a bit from a domain that may otherwise sit idle.

Also, I noticed that one of the newsfeeds goes to this page: http://www.t3bqlbe.com/vb/t65035.html

Do we get paid for a click on that page?

Thanks


Also, do we use publisher id for google beginning with "ca-pub-" or "pub-"

I manually put in the right to left, but a button would be much faster. Thanks again

Hello lipps,

Thank you for your comments, very complete information about that attack. We didn't have any other problem since we made the appropriate changes.

We are glad you like the system, as you say if the domains are rightly configurated, that means a correct title, description and keywords, the revenue will increase significantly.

Hello phio,

There will be included a right justify function by default for those specific IDNs.

The clicks on secondary pages that come from feeds are not monetized by our system, just clicks in domain's pages.

And the publisher id must be in the form: pub-xxxxxxxxxxxx.

Nice work configuring. Thank you.

I think one nice addition to the service that would be a major improvement would be a page hit counter and breakdown of the area of the visitor.
Really dont want one on the page but in the control panel so one could get an idea of how much traffic they are getting and where it comes from.
I see you can use analytics, but I dont always want to use them on parkng pages.
Good work guys.

Have started to use it as well. First sight looks pretty ok. I like the designs and the "add a domain" procedure is clear.

Couple of points that may make things even better.

1/ I agree with Lipps that it would be nice if it would be possible to have more statistics options. I don't want to use always Google Analytics. Maybe add the option to an alternative like Statcounter or a similar service.

2/ I noticed that after my log in session timed out, the page didn't re-direct to the login page

Will add a couple of more domains once the options for Statistics have been increased.

Hello chineseidn,

We are working on an statistic system that will offer visits through time and other data, the problem with it are the robot's visits that can give incorrect data. Hopefully we'll have it working soon

The time out session redirects now to the log in page.

I bet NameDrive is gonna kick your ass with FastPage, and I doubt they will require a google adsense account with 50/50 adsense rotation per page view.

Seriously, you are not a real parking company if you are not abstracting monetization for your customers.

Hello jacksonm,

The service we offer is not a real parking as you correctly said, in fact consits in the development of a domain that converts it into a real site with subpages and relevant content. Customers can choose design, header images and other features.

By the time we can say that the data provided by our customers reveals that the positioning of their domains is faster and the income higher than conventional parkings. The reason for the adsense user id is that revenue goes directly to customers accounts and by analytics they can see how exactly is the monetization doing and certify everithing is clear and the 50/50 rate is correct.
In fact, if a customer introduces a certain amount of domains, configurates them correctly and gets affiliates his revenue can get to 65 or 70%.

Many of our customers are transfering domains fron NameDrive after trying the system so there must be a good reason for it.

We invite you to try both systems and publish your results here.

Best regards.

Yes I just changed it over as I am having someone in Vietnam write articles for the site now, and want to show different sections for sports, politics etc. The site in under development with noomle now. Parkingminisite did a great job with it, but I needed a little more flexibility for this one.

Both site generators are very very good in my opinion. There are still a few bugs with Parking minisite.

Some that I am aware of:

1) Language resets to english or spanish when you go in and modify a site

2) Arabic spacing on the logo splits out the letters, which most arabic speakers see as incorrect, the letters need to stay joined.

Hello rhys,

It is a good proposal so we are going to work on it. It will be ready in a short time and we'll announce it as soon as it is ready to use.

About the website text format, in your control panel choose the edit option for the desired domain, once you're in select the edit html view in the text window and you can format the text in html.

Thanks for that advice on editing text. I have tried that, it shows the proper formatting when I click the text editor but then when I save it, the viewer shows that all of my formatting is lost and all the text is smashed together again. Is there something I don't understand? Do you need me to code the format in HTML within the text editor?

If anyone else has already gotten this to work for them, please feel free to chime in with advice.

Hello rhys,

We have done a few tests editing text in some of our domains with all the templates, apparently it works fine. It is not necessary to put the html tags in the text box, you only have to write the text with its spaces, tabs,...

If it still don't working you may tell us in private message which domain is what you're having trouble with and will take a look to solve the problem and tell you what happens.

I see it live now at : compiègne.com (http://www.xn--compigne-50a.com/), but it is in Spanish.
A language option is indispensible, the content should be in the language of the domain :) .

The header in the top-left corner has the wrong encoding in the db.
The area just beneath the title is blank, should there be a picture there ?
It would be suitable to have only text there (or perhaps the picture of the globe or the specific country flag).

In the bottom left menu I see : francia.ws which is supposed to be link
to information about the country, I would suggest to simply link to the relevant wikipedia page.

Good job and good thinking to make a dedicated geosite !

I would suggest in the future to integrate the bookings using the bookings.com API.

on a cursory glance, it looks like their ads are showing on the first impression most of the time. Also they double stack their ads taking up the whole page, while ours are side by side. Not sure why these changes are taking place with them.
