These are the providers which allow typos:

Sedo, DomainSponsor, ParkingSite, NameDrive, TrafficZ, Hitfarm. Can not really comment on others

Typos should be fine anywhere, TM's and TM typos will have issues.

example:

giraffe is generic
girafe is a generic typo
microsoft is a TM
mikrosoft is a TM typo

Pretty soon all PPC companies will outlaw TM and TM typos.

This has already started.

I do not think it will be so quick if at all. They will outlaw only typos, where the TM owner complained and proved ownership of the TM. Parking companies not only can NOT be obliged to study TMs of whole world, it is actually even not in their powers.

No so sure about that. Even without getting into the TM arguments they can simply dismiss traffic as being junk or refuse useful keywords to domains that effectively have no useful words within the domains.

Most PPC companies are already concerned about the quality of traffic that they are selling on, as those stumping up the cash are sensitive to issues regarding paying for clicks that do not convert to sales.

Before you jump back at me on this, I am not actually saying that Typo Traffic has no commercial value, but it could be difficult to establish its merit.

No commercial value? I know you have to be kidding? You cant tell that to me, I've done seven figure sales for three years straight selling pieces of cardboard called trading cards from the mere traffic of typos. No commercial value, no, you have missed it on that one. Give me all the typos I can get!

sorry, hope i wasnt out of line in the the thread,

I was very careful not to say they don't have commercial value as clearly they can.

My point, however, it is easy to inflate traffic figures and even Overture. It can therefore be awfully difficult to establish, whether what one is buying into is actually a genuine Typo or a Manufactured Typo.

I know that other types of domains are also potential targets for such abuse, but with a Typo it makes obtaining a credible hoax very easy. Just get any slight deviation from a top generic, pump the traffic that way, do some searches from an anonymous proxy and bingo, you have a very sellable domain.

Sorry, but if I was interested in the Typo market, I would research my own and new reg it. If it were genuine then the returns from traffic should justify the reseach and expenditure, without making a resale.

Humbug!

some do, blatant tm's are often blocked by google or yahoo so it is usually not up to the parking company. Check your pm box.
