Make Money with Domain Parking
Domain parking is a way to make money through the natural type-in traffic of your domain names. You essentially are using a service to put up ads on your unused domain name. You only need to make about $.60 a month per domain name for this to be a profitable enterprise (assuming you paid $7.00 for registration).
The most common type of domain name that gets type-in traffic is a typo domain name.
Typo Domain Names
A typo domain name is a domain that is based off a typo of another more popular site. For example, ituns.com is a typo of the popular itunes.com service from Apple. A site parked at ituns.com could probably expect to get a couple thousand visitors a month just from mistaken type-ins.
To find typos to register, you can use a Typo Generator Tool. People have been using this trick for years so it can be hard to find domain names, but if you keep up with fresh topics (e.g. search for typos on the name of an up and coming pop star) you might score big.
Mistaken Domain Names
Another popular domain name type for parking, are domain names people type-in when they are “guessing” at a web site URL for a product, company, or celebrity. For example, I might type-in orvitz.com after mishearing a commercial for orbitz.com. Similarly, I might type in downloaditunes.com, or zuneplayer.com, etc. These are harder to score with since you are guessing at the potential type-ins you will receive.
Domain Parking Services
Here are a few services that offer domain parking. Note that there are several services that only deal with business that require large quantities of domains before they will accept you into their program, this post sticks to the programs that do not have such limitations:
Sedo
Summary: Sedo is the 500lb gorilla that may have invented the process of domain parking (or at least created a simple interface for doing parking domains)
Pros: Easy, all you do is point your nameservers in the direction of Sedo and fill out a few fields in their sign up process and you are good to go; minimal technology skills required. Sedo will also allow you to list your domains in their domains for sale section which includes a simple traffic stat counter.
Cons: Sedo uses Google’s adsense platform (their website says that they use “partners such as Google”) to supply advertisements to parked domains, which adds another layer of intermediary (one more partner to take a slice of a pie that remains the same size). For example, Google and Sedo split revenue generated from advertisements and then Sedo splits revenue with you.
Domain Hop
Summary: Domain Hop is run by the people who bring you Kanoodle. Kanoodle is a search engine that sells pay per click advertisements in a similar fashion to Google.
Pros: There is no “middle man” as in the case of Sedo. Domain Hop claims on their homepage that their ads generate over five times the return of competitor products.
Cons: General assumption that Google has better optimization than smaller search engines like Kanoodle; therefore they may not be as good in targeting the correct ads to viewers which could result in a lower CPM.
NameDrive
Summary: NameDrive has a simple interface and an affiliate program you can use to sign up other users.
Pros: Monthly payouts, affiliate program to earn extra revenue over just domain parking, and domain stat tracking. You can also list your site for sale in the marketplace.
Cons: The web site does not divulge the exact revenue split you get for parking your domain name, which makes you wonder how much you’re really earning.
CashParking
Summary: CashParking is from GoDaddy. They are the ONLY domain parking services that CHARGES to use it. We wouldn’t recommend it.
Pros: Supposedly, this service can earn you higher CPMs as GoDaddy is out selling some direct ads for you and other sites in your genre.
Cons: This costs $3.99 a month. That ruins the whole “$0.60 a month will make your domain profitable” thing we talked about earlier. If you have a good reason to pay for domain parking through GoDaddy email us.
I currently have about 50 domains registered waiting to be developed. In the meantime, I have them listed on Sedo.com and they earn their keep! Good luck with your domain parking and let us know about your successes.

Partial RSS feed? Boo!
There are too many sites out there that are made just for parking . This can get real annoying .. especially when one’s searching for information and continuously land onto parked domains.
@Nick ..
Haha .. boo indeed
I’m planning to sell some domains that have been parked for a while. Believe it or not but some of the domain has high PR.
I have tried most of the services you listed and more. All in all Sedo and Namedrive seem to be the best. One great new service you havent mentioned is from Domaintools.com very worth the look.
i have tryed it, but not good earn
I tried a couple and found that Namedrive worked best for me. In addition to being very simple to use/modify, I believe I heard they pay out something like 80% of the revenue split.
Tried to park domains with sedo. Paid $200+ for domains. Mainly misspelled. Got earn about $300 with them.
You can also search for domains on the parking services. A lot of good names are parked out there and cam be bought pretty cheap. Well aged domains can be much easier to work with in some ways than a new one. Plus the benefit of potential large search listing history.
lol
not to sound spamish but…
an example is our new site http://motorizedfun.com , although the domain was not purchased directly from a parking service we did find it thru one. The first domain we were seeking was at sedo and they wanted $1000. We then searched the database for past listings and similar listings and found our way round about to this one.
[...] Others out there are promoting this as a legitimate way to make money on the Internet. Decide for yourself. [...]
Great tip. I have several dormant domain names I haven’t gotten around to developing yet. I had no idea I could be making an online income with them.
I’m definitely going to check out Sedo.
Thanks,
Larry

Thanks for this great plugin! Works fine – only my old PDA doesn’t understand UTF-8 – most blogs are coded like this – so special characters aren’t displayed correctly.

I tried using GoDaddy for domain parking but never made a single penny. Geez, Adsense paid better than that!

Good post, thanks for the share.
Yeah Chuck, I had the same exact experience with GoDaddy parking. They just take a huge piece of the pie, might as well just throw together an adsense site like you said.
yea, ebay is by far th best place to buy and sell product.
i know many people who make their living by selling on ebay.

Domain parking is really good way to online money making. Choose a good domain and do it.
Thanks for sharing information about how to make money with domain parking.
An easy way to make money online is by creating a domain parking. The more you produce a parked domain the greater your success to generate the money.
I’m looking for one that has no downtime and url forwarding. And possibly no ads if I did ever plan to develop the site. If not free then what other web hosting service provides said benefits for a low cost and maybe has unlimited domain names.

I have had enough of expensive fees charged by both Amazon and ebay and have decided to launch my own book auction site. I need some ideas for a domain name. The auction will sell books, comics, magazines, autographs, newspapers, and any other interesting papers etc. The auction will donate a percentage of profits to charity.
Their is either free domain parking or paid domain parking where you get money for someone clicking on the links that the domain hosting company puts on the website.
hello friend i am unable to find the domain parking companies of these domains given below, but don’t know what are the name of these domains parking companies..
Domains are…
Not to go against this article or anything, but Google Search engines are being very smart about mistyped URLs. Doing tricky advertising like that can be more detrimental to your success than helpful, and there have been a rise of Legal Actions against “Typosquatters”. You can misspell a site name and claim it as your own if you want, but you have to be VERY careful and make sure you go at it the right way.
I myself would never Typosquat because I’m too much of a goody-two-shoes, but whatever works for you guys!
Also I think domain parking is a good way to make money online but I also think that it’s not as powerful as it used to be… But overall, sedo is the best place for this matter in my opinion…
I have registered domain names for an upcoming release of a product. The release has been known for quite some time and surprisingly, the domains were available. I would like to know if there are certain domains that are illegal, if I’m planning to offer a service related to the products trademarked name.Thanks
Domain parking is the best way to earn money from Google adds.
You wouldn’t earn anything, but you could take that number to a company looking to advertise and then you could make some mad bucks.
Thank U.

Interesting take on domains. I guess there will be an endless supply of mis-typed domains as the internet grows along with our reliance on spell check.
I have been using some domain name parking companies, but they all offer payment once a month. Is there any domain parking company that offers instant payment(when minimum is reached) through paypal?
Typo and mistaken domain names hold a lot of potential. I cannot even remember the times I myself have typed in a wrong or guessed URL that took me to some totally unrelated domain. You just have to think carefully about what sort of typo and mistaken URLs hold the highest possibilities of occuring.

Domain parking is also nice way to have money but Adds some time don’t allow that options
Not sure if this can earn much anymore since most domains are already taken, but it is worth a shot.

Domain Parking can still be quite profitable but it is not as easy as it was before. Now you have to strategize and be more tactical and predictive in order to snare up some good domains for selling in the future.
