Re: ParkingCrew 0-1 cent clicks!!
My PC stats haven't really dipped since I joined 42 days ago. Two of the last three days for which stats have updated are in the overall top 10 best days. Current run rate is more than 2x the renewal costs of our IDN portfolio (PC is the first parking provider ever to break the psychological "renewal" line).

Congrats! Your portfolio is 100% Japanese, isn't it?

Re: ParkingCrew 0-1 cent clicks!!
Yes, Japan is one of two success stories.
With Japanese the traffic is not great, but because the address system is so broken individual clicks are worth a shed load of money. Expect that to be heavily impacted when the traffic final explodes.
With Arabic Cost per Click is modest but respectable. Traffic levels are, however, stunning. We are consistent getting 5K uniques per day and more three quarters of that is Arabic.
There is significant traffic on Russian but Google have banned a good deal of those and those they are serving get rather pathetic cost per clicks.
There is traffic coming out of China but earnings are negligible.
But don't lose heart, things change. They have changed before and they will change again. Most likely for the better.

Re: ParkingCrew 0-1 cent clicks!!
Hi Guys,
our apologies for not jumping into this thread any earlier, we somehow didn't get the notification.
Thanks to all of you for already pointing out the most important issues:
-Very high CTR coupled with very low CPC usually indicates a domain is blocked by our upstream feed provider and sold on a zero-click basis (thus a CTR close to 100% with CPC being lower than usual).This is indicated by the domain being in the virtual folder blocked
-Chinese traffic is very hard to monetize
-Japan is one of our strongest markets and we would be happy to help you excel in this market as well
Cheers

Re: ParkingCrew 0-1 cent clicks!!
I think what most of us needs to happen is for somebody to reverse the damage done by some fuckwit at Google that started blocking IDN en mass, probably out of pure ignorance, before he was thankfully stopped.
This is costing you, us and even Google substantial amounts of money, and the amounts involved are likely to increase dramatically along with a surge hopefully massive in IDN traffic in the near future.

Re: ParkingCrew 0-1 cent clicks!!
Do you have any insight as to when that mass blocking happened?

From Memory, it was a month or so before I joined Parking Crew, so probably April 2012.
There was a thread on here. A lot of people were complaining. I was with Namedrive at that time.
To be fair they did manage to get a few unblocked, but by that time I was getting much better revenue at Parking Crew, so I moved everything.

Re: ParkingCrew 0-1 cent clicks!!
Thisi is the related thread:
http://www.idnforums.com/forums/3153...domains-3.html
We have about 320 domains blocked.
Difficult to know why, because we did not do Development or SEO or any other kind of bizarre stuff. We simply parked them.
The only explaination that make sense to me is that somebody at Google was seeing Punycode, didn't have a clue what IDN were and assumed that it must be a scam.
