Hmm... there is no "Ads by Gooooogle" anywhere on it, which means the customer is special and receives loads of hits.
I'm surprised Google allowed it, to be honest.

I stumbled on the site via... Hmmm, I gotta think about that for a moment. I was researching a topic, an interesting one at that. I had started at wikipedia. Now I'm not sure if wikipedia linked to it, or it was via another site that I had already clicked to from wikipedia.
So that site USED to have some "important" information on it.
Not sure what happened to the site or when it happened. But now it's just one big Google ad (minus the Google mention) and absolutely zero content.
Maybe the site is down for a bit. Maybe it's down for good. We'll wait and see.

Google owns it. Its just a domain parked on google's domain park service. If you own a domain with type in traffic you can park it on any number of services like Sedo or Namedrive and you will get a share of the revenue.

Please tell me college clint in a wind up!!!!
Still, its a classic site isnt it! Maybe we should all run "Adsense Game" sites.
Perhaps its the next best thing?

Okay, xxxxx.xxx - I would love to know what ad server provides these, whilst looking like google adsense I don't think it is, as such ads regularly appear on DMOZ related sites (Cough! Yuch! (Boys own club?))
As for the 'google game' that 'Living free' has suggested might I suggest Mr Moderator that you ban this Man NOW!!! This is blatant 'click me' now fraud - Moderator ban this persons ip address now, this is the worst case of click fraud I've ever seen on this forumor anywhere else.:mad:

Ban which man? :confused: Living Free is in fact female and I was only reporting on what I had seen while browsing the web. I am not in any way affiliated with that website!!! :rolleyes:
It should be Google banning the website owner!!! :mad:

Living free, (please excuse my gender mistake), apologies it's just that your post did look as though you were associated with the site - and let's face it other than saying 'Click me right now' the site in question promoted click fraud. Your right they should be banned, it'd have helped more if you'd posted saying isn't this outrageous or some such comment. Apologies again on the gender thing, it's just that some people use this forum to spam us with such rubbish and hence I jumped in with both feet as the post screamed 'adsense spam' to me. Please accept my apologies

no harm done ;)
I just thought considering the topic and the fact that it was blatent 'adsense crime' it would have been obvious I was exposing it rather than promoting it.
Have a great day! :)

Thanks for that, now I know Google has domainpark too. Do we get a share of the adsense revenue?
How does this compare to similar programs like Fabulous? :rolleyes:

GoDaddy just introduced CashParking where you can park domains for a monthly fee. One of mine that is parked is http://kantspel.com Godaddy works this program in conjunction with Google Adsense. I signed up on a monthly basis, and with 30 domains parked and an investment of $7.96, I've made 18 cents. I am writing about the experiment on my mrblogmeister site. Needless to say, I'm out at the end of the month.
GoDaddy has a projected income of $7 +/- per parked site. How can they project that with no SE?

I'm guessing GoDaddy make the money, and to top if off they charge you so you can have a cut of your own money.
It's a win/win situation for them.
