Choosing Domain Names > Resources > Parking Checklist

This is a checklist of what to do when trying to park domains.

1. Don't buy domains until you have researched both the amount of people searching for the keywords and the bid rates advertisers are paying for those keywords.

2. Don't buy domains until you have researched the industry well enough to feel comfortable and understand the "jargon". I would say at least 12-20 hours on domain forums, reading articles, and understanding the tools available.

3. Only buy domains that will get traffic Parking does not add traffic to a domain.

4. Research the best parking service some parking services do better with adult names, country names, gambling, etc and some have traffic requirements.

5. Review your keywords in parking, you can sometimes change the keywords on your parked domain to get more traffic and more importantly more clicks.

It's hard to sell something people are not looking for, but some domainers still like "brandable" domains that show poor results in all of these tools. They believe a company might buy their name and then do a lot of marketing to build recognition for the name. Those sales do occur occasionally but they are much more of a long shot than names that have solid search interest built in and that perfectly describe an entire class of goods or services. Again, it is all about stacking the odds in your favor
