Hi, I applied just over a week ago and got accepted straight away even though my domains do not get high traffic they were I think recognised as having the potential to get high traffic between them and I agreed to transfer 800 names (and they included over 100 ccTLD's). It may be the quantity that they are saying 'no' too.

Why not email them and 'politely' ask why? Explain that any assistance they could give you in pointing you in 'the right direction' would be appreciated. It wouldn't hurt giving it a try.

I submitted few months back and did not get any response and finally came to know that the application was accepted and closed for no activity.

And I submitted an application got approved in two hours or less.

So, I think they are actively accepting applications.

You may need to contact them and see what is going on!

i got a response from them 5 days later rejecting? I could not work it out as the names i gave them were all strong names ( one word generics etc )

think i will just keep on making applications

Why don't you PM somebody who works for Parked.com like me and ask them/me to look at it and see why your account was rejected. It takes 30 seconds on your end and about 2 minutes or my end and we don't have to worry about this anymore, how's that?

I've been rejected several times. I paste them 10 domains or so and dont care if they're my best ones or no (mostly ccTLDs). Really dont care. I dont want to show them all my domains just because they want to examine my portfolio.

If you are applying for an account, usually you will show some of your top domains to try and get accepted. If you are showing your bottom of the bucket, be prepared to be rejected.

They should know people possess domains of different kinds. I.e. someone can have 3% of v. good domains and the rest is average, mean, etc. I can have a few top domains in the nearest future or can sell ones I've shown them while applying before they accept me. it is a dynamic business so I see no reason in making such services elite. If they want to build a high-class club - it is their problem. I guarantee domains some people possess now and park at Parked.com, Smartnames and similiar services are a few classes weaker than ones they've shown while applying.

These threads always crack me up!

hookah - We don't actually manually look at your domains, it's an automated process that evaluates your domains. And if you read the fine print on the signup form, it says provide us with at least 10. If you want to send us 2000 that's fine as well and we will evaluate all of the domains. It scores your account on about 75 different options, so domains are just a part of the process.

You can reapply with more domains, which I recommend or you can send me a PM to look at your application or you can send an email in to have our account review team manually review your account.

These threads always crack me up!

...and crack me down sometimes.

I am surprised domains are not evaluated by a human being.

 

[Donny Simonton]

They are evalauted by a human being, one that I created on a server. The program evaluates domains the exact way that I evaluate domains. It's really not hard to do when you sit down and think about it.

Why not email them and 'politely' ask why?

And miss out on the attention and drama?..... Why would anyone want to do that?

Let us know when you're accepted.

I submitted a small number of names about a month ago and was rejected. I remember that the staff were pretty quick to reply. My thought process was throw a few over there, and if they perform move others in my portfolio.

After seeing this thread yesterday I re-applied, but with more, higher quality domain names. My account was approved today. Very happy!

I have to say that its good having someone like Donny on DNF who we all can work with. While there are other parking companies around, in my experience, their DNF reps and account managers are not very responsive.

I'll move my domains across today and see how they perform! It's going to be interesting! :yes:

I dont know why you got rejected ? I submit 1 domains and got approved within 48 hours.

They score your account on "...75 different options..." as stated above. Most likely, you're good in at least half of them

Simon:
I assume its only logical to assume that some of the criteria used in evaluating the domains has more weightage than others.

Why don't you write a post about some of the top criteria for domains being accepted at parked.com; maybe top 10, if not all the criteria.

This might even help people in getting hold of parking friendly names.

Also if the process is automated, why does acceptance or rejection upto 3 days.

I have tried to register unsuccessfully several times. A PM with my email addy is coming your way soon.

I got into Parked.com with only 10 domains in my portfolio. 10 is their minimum you have to park with them.

Kind Regards
