I've realised this to be a truth. Many of those who argue that it's a good idea are either good guys or bad guys, and the validity of the argument really lies in who is doing it not so much in what is being done (although, HOW it is being done is certainly dependent on who is doing it). Interesting post, though, there are many shortcomings. Domain parking can be ethical or non-ethical, depending on who is actually doing it. I’ve realised this to be a truth.

We hear the same results from our clients as you mentioned with Minnesota.com. Initial revenue decreases with a lower CTR, but then increases due to an increase in traffic.

I completely agree with you regarding development, but maybe that's the seo in us. I think the main problem is the current parking companies have it soo easy, they don't want to innovate because it takes time and money. I really don't think they either understand, nor realise the implications of a quality developed domain. I have visited Fab and it's clear they are all about following the easiest dollar. I think the seo/domainer types will have to evolve this on on their own, at the end of the day the money only flows to those that do the real work. It's a sad situation, but also a massive oppourtunity. I think the syergy between the domainers and seo's out there will only move the development of parked domains forward. Personally I am doing just this, only I am about 5% in and have about 2 years to go. It will happen, just the long way around. Nice post Ahmed, looking forward to more!! - Ben Hi Ahmed, congrats on the appointment! I completely agree with you regarding development, but maybe that’s the seo in us.
