Hi Everyone,

We just wanted to inform those of you who do not already know that there have been some changes made by our advertising partner, and we would like to draw your attention to how these changes will relate to our service.
As of 1st of October NameDrive will no longer be allowed to support advertisements to URL forwarded parking pages.
Needless to say, you are still able to park your domains via a simple DNS forward.

Here is how it works:
To start with, make sure all of your domains are added to your NameDrive account.
Next, contact your registrar or log into your your registrar account and change your domain DNS settings to our servers:

Primary Name Server: ns1.fastpark.net - 216.8.179.50
Secondary Name Server: ns2.fastpark.net - 216.8.177.29

This change was made by our advertising partner and will affect all parking companies working with their feeds.

We strive to make this change as easy as possible for you and are currently working on an alternative solutions in addition to changing your DNS settings to our server.

We will keep you updated on the progress.

Please contact us at: [email protected] if you have any questions or concerns regarding this matter.

Thank you for your understanding.
Craig

This is not a big deal, this just means you need to use their nameservers instead of forwarding domains.

This is done to cut out alot of fraud.

I liked using frame forwarding (but not positive it's the same thing) since it's a good way to use my own meta tags and also a bit of my own content could get indexed in the SEs (located above the html forwarding code line).

I agree, David. Sedo will soon enforce the same, I believe. The parking companies conversion falls as long as they don't create new, exciting templates. Visitors simply don't click on pages they already identify as parked from other domains that share similar layouts. That's the fallacy of PPC.
