Hey folks!
I have a few questions about domain parking, if anyone cares to answer them I'd appreciate it
1) do I need Adsense account in order to make money with domain parking? Because I don't have one yet, and - given how long it takes to get approved into Adsense nowadays (and I believe I would need to have a fully-working website too, which I don't) - I won't be getting one soon, so this will be a problem for me...
2) do I need to send traffic to my own parked domains? I've dealt with domain parking only once, but that's over 15 years ago and I don't remember how this works exactly.
3) KYC... I'm a big hater of getting KYC'd by random foreigners who have no business knowing my phone number, where I live, or how I look like. So... is there any KYC involved at ANY step of the process (signing up with the parking company + setting up my domain inventory + making money with my parked domains + getting the money out from the parking company) at all, and if yes, what level of KYC are we talking about (ID level only, ID + proof of residence, ID + proof of residence + proof of liveliness, etc)?
4) assuming that the answers to the previous 3 questions are to my liking, which parking platform are you recommending that...
a) is free to use (I think SEDO want me to pay before I can park with them, so that's not an option)
b) is easy to sign up with (Bodis, for example, are asking for some invitation code that I've no idea where to get, so this option is also not working for me)
c) pays decently (I don't mind splitting the revenue with the parking company as long as they don't rip me off by taking like 50-60% or more from my parking revenue, or as long as they don't KYC the living crap out of me, or put roadblocks of any kind in my process of making money, etc)... so, as long as a company plays fair and has my best interest at heart I'm in!
d) (optional but highly desirable) proactively works towards increasing the traffic to my parked domains and / or increasing my earnings (and, therefore, their earnings too since they'll be taking commissions - I presume - from my earnings anyway)
I did check Namesilo (since I've been using them as my main domain registrar anyway for over a decade) but they want me to own an Adsense account which - like I said - is not possible for me at the moment. Maybe later down the road, but not now, so NS is not a good option either)
Sedo and Bodis are unusable for the reasons I've explained...
ParkingCrew I just contacted about 7-10 days ago, asking them the exact same things I'm asking here, but they've not replied yet and - given how long it's been since I've contacted them - I don't think they'll reply anyway, which is a bad sign if I'm being honest as I don't like joining companies that give zero fucks about their customers.
GiantPanda I've heard good things about, but I've checked them and don't remember what it was,. but there was something about them that I didn't like (probably something about KYC as this is my biggest trigger these days, I absolutely despise being KYC'd by perverted scumbags who are more preoccupied with mining my data then they are with raising their nephews and nieces...)
So yeah... these are the options that I know of and - as you can see - nothing is even decently usable by me for various reasons...
So, what (other) options do I have for parking my domains (about 10-15 for now, I might have more in the future) and make a few bucks by being the lazy fuck that I am (ie. by doing NOTHING for that money)?
If there's any parking expert in here that can, and wants to share a few tips please do so, and I'll return the favor with the 1st chance that I get
Thanks, and I look forward to hearing your kind suggestions!
