Can you park old domains you no longer use with Adsense?

viralim · 08-07-2009, 01:42 PM

I have a few domains that I'm retiring. The problem is, there are still a number of links to these domains from other sites.

Does this go against Adsense policy of having backlinks to the domains as they sepcifically state: "Publishers may not use online advertising to drive traffic to pages participating in AdSense for domains." Is this considered "advertising"?

Please advise. Thanks!

Wild guess, disclaimer and all that:
If that was before you retired your sites to Adsense for domains, then I think you're ok.

Actually Adsense has a domain parking program, I remember reading about it on Digg. I don't do this so can't give you more information, but I'm 100% sure that I read an article about that before.
