I do this aswell.. most of my acronym names go to my for sale lander page without any ads. for example ze dot net.
those names don't make a ton of money in parking anyway so it would be an unnecessary risk to park them IMO.

Register Today on DNForum IT'S FREE!I recently bought a few LLL names and have seen some cases where people lost the names due to displaying ads for products of a company whose abbreviation consisted of the letters in the LLL. The names were parked and as a result I do not want to park and run ads on my LLL names. Instead, I want to just state they are for sale, but now I question whether that will be considered cybersquatting.
Thoughts?
Let’s use different examples of there is a company name that is LLL with TM. There is a company who’s abbreviation makes up the LLL, and so on.
If I am displaying no ads at all and the site is just my investment in the name, could it be considered cybersquatting?

In other words, I want to put up static pages for these names and state they are for sale on the page. No ads. Will I still have to worry about a company coming along and saying that I am cybersquatting, just because I invested in a name?

A company can always come along and claim anything even if they have a very weak case.

VW.net was set the basics of cybersqatting: don't do ANYTHING in bad faith.
