I have bought a domain name and parked it on NameDrive a month ago. The earning is not bad. Someday I get $0.10 per click or someday $0.25 and even $1.50. At this time I am happy with NameDrive. Though I need more money and traffic. However I want to know about your experience. Do you know how NameDrive count the traffic? Sometimes I don't see my expected traffic. I thinks it is better to know about their traffic algorithm.

Thanks from,
Shoaib

    Hi Shoaib,

    You are generally not allowed to do anything to promote traffic to your parked domain. Your traffic comes from people who type your domain name into their browser (type in traffic), or from old backlinks that were in place at the time you parked your page.

    If you want to make money from parked domains then buy keyword domain names that have type in traffic or buy an expired domain name that has a bunch of direct link traffic from many sources.

    Here is an excerpt from NameDrive's terms of service:

    1) TRAFFIC: Traffic on domains in the DPP can originate from two sources only: Type in (direct navigation) traffic and existing search engine results / expired traffic. ND reserves the right to exclude domains with non-converting traffic from the system at any time.

    2) TRAFFIC SOURCES: Traffic promotional methods not allowed include, but are not limited to: Blog sites / forums, TGP Gallerys, bought traffic (PTR/PTC), Arbitrage traffic driven by PPC campaigns (Adwords etc.), traffic directed from hyperlinks etc. are not permitted. If your traffic originates from any sources other than type-in and search engine traffic, it must first be approved by ND. Regular checks are carried out and ND reserves the right to suspend any domain from its DPP if the traffic on that domain is believed to be bought, generated or redirected in any way that contravenes these terms and conditions. Users may periodically view their parked pages to ensure they are correctly set up but are not permitted to click any of the advertising links. Traffic may not be redirected from another domain to a domain parked on the DPP. All traffic to a domain must either be type in traffic or link traffic for that specific domain, not redirected from another domain, either on the DPP or another domain outside the DPP. Clicks made on parked pages can ONLY originate from real, unique visitors clicking on the advertising. Clicks can in no way be incentivized Clicks may not be generated by asking friends, family, members of the public or anyone else to click on the advertising links on your parked page. You may not use robots, software systems, arbitrage or any other method to artificially modify the number of views, clicks, CTR, PPC, RPM or revenue away from that driven by regular Internet users (not including, but not limited to, yourselves, employees, associates, partners, etc.). Evidence of this will result in the domain immediately being blocked and the earnings withheld. Neither traffic nor clicks may be generated by any non-human source - e.g. bots. ND wishes to maintain a fair, transparent platform. However click fraud and parking fraud are not tolerated. Any major breach of these terms will result in an account being suspended and the earnings being withheld in persistent cases. If ND believes that there might be fraud then ND reserves the right to withhold any funds which might result from the fraud for a period of no less then six months in order to ascertain if there really has been such fraud and permanently if such fraud is ascertained. ND is partners with a third party from whom it obtains its advertising feed. This third party has reserved the right to claim that traffic is fake or fraudulent and to retain earnings, whether already paid to a customer or pending payment, in its sole discretion. You agree that the decision as to whether there is or is not fraud shall be decided by ND and/or its advertising partners' sole discretion.
