DotZup Spamming

[namestrands]

How low will some companies go, abusing the whoIS database.

Hello,

I noticed that you are currently monetizing your domains through a domain parking service. I imagine that since you are familiar with the parking space that you’re probably starting to hear the buzz about Dotzup’s new Parking Program. After almost 8 years of virtual silence Dotzup is making available to others the search technology it has been using on it’s own 50,000 owned and operated domains to outperform even the most premier parking services. I would like to invite you to try Dotzup’s new parking program. Dotzup believes it is able to monetize better than any other third party provider for the following reasons:



* Dotzup’s network average CPM is currently running at over $90, net to you.
* Dotzup is one of the top portfolio owners in the world currently owning 50,000 profitable domains.
* Dotzup hold’s the cleanest portfolio in the world (zero adult, gambling or TM domains).
* Dotzup runs one of the most profitable privately owned portfolios in the world.
* Dotzup delivers targeted, conceptually related and behavior based pay-per-click results that match your domains meaning.
* Dotzup shares ALL revenue sources that it integrates into its domain landing pages with its clients.
* Dotzup adheres to its percentage payouts. 60% means 60%. There are no undisclosed percentage hold outs.

I received the same E-mail a while ago.
I have to say their landers are really third world class lol
but maybe they are effective after all :cheeky:

SEDO done this to all domains parked on namedrives servers.

I personlly think that this sort of marketing is a sign of utter desperation, it is against the TOS of the WHOIS to use the details for Spamming. When you have the parking programs themselves using black hat methods, you really have to question the honesty and integrity of that program.

Why would they risk getting their nameservers and parked domains blocked for the sake of an email. THey risk loosing all their current customers once their IP are tagged for spamming, the first to block are schools, universities, government offices.

Shame on them!!!!

If they need to spam people, then its safe to say that they lack ethics and therefore should be avoided at ALL COST

 

[Dr Nump]

I cant imagine a real company like dotzup can do such thing like that .
Disappointed !

 

[B.King]

God forbid I change a nameserver on any of my premium domains , and there in my inbox will be lying an invitation from dotzup , just like clockwork

 

[BGray]

I just got one of these spam emails yesterday. Trash!

 

[cash2park.com]

Any news about them?

 

[DNcom]

Any news about them?

Same question, any update?

I'm doing so so with them, I have a handful of premiums which are turning over the traffic "as they should" but the CTR is quite low with those landers - but the yield is good. I'm not disclosing figures but I do agree they aren't the best landers in the world.

SPAMMERS never won.
Now they even changed their signup procedures & now accept applications only by mail!

I have been at Dotzup for over a year now. I park 173 of my best domains there and the earn a decent income. I've tried most parking sites and was not happy with any of them! I am content and have no plans of ever moving them. Dotzup is head and shoulders above the competition in virtually all aspects!

I have a few domains with Dotzup but also I referred several people there. Dotzup screens seem to monetize well at times, but they never change anything. Why would a company not evolve their pages? Make them better over time?

What bothers me about dotzup is that they have missed payments. It has happened to me twice now. The first time they went weeks with no response, and finally they responded - and instead of just paying the missed payment, they folded it into the following months payment. So they do what is to their advantage, it seems. I did not get the March payment and once again they are unresponsive to email. I dont believe it is an email filtering issue because I had one of their other customers email to them, on my behalf; and still no response.

On my my main measures of any web business is their responsiveness and support. That is why I like Moniker and Godaddy registrars, for example.

I do not feel I can recommend Dotzup any longer.
