I submitted 2 applications to Smartname and one to Activeaudience on 3 separate occasions, ALL were declined with NO explanation what so ever. I wrote back each time kindly asking why and my emails were completely ignored, I emailed again and they were again ignored. Having never been declined by a Parking service before, I was very surprised, shocked when you consider the domains I submitted.

Ignoring emails is NOT good business practice, Just look at what they did, It earned them this negative post and potentially discouraged others to apply.

I dont think buying your way in is the right approach, no account is worth that unless your planning to use it for other means. And its kinda hard to ask other members to vouch for you, who dont much about you.

^ My experience with AA is quite the opposite - I find their support quite helpful and communicative, the revenue for some types of names is up 300%, their reporting and graph tools are superb. JMO

Is there any advantage to going with ActiveAudience over SmartName? ?

I was wondering how the two compare as well... Have AA account and may apply for SmartName today/tomorrow

If you need help with parking with SmartName, for testing the water or long term, please PM me your first/last name and email address. As a fellow domainer, I understand your situation. Having a good relationship with NameMedia, I'll help connect you with a contact to get you started asap. SmartName maybe more 'strict' in its requirements, but as long as you have quality names, big or small portfolio, it's OK. I''ll do my best to help.

All the best,
DG

how long does it take for the domains to start getting some action???

what would be a fair amount of time...to test to see if a parking company is working for your domain ?


thanks

I think the matter is not of how much time, but of how much traffic. A domain that gets 1 click a day, could take you a couple of weeks. A domain that gets 100 clicks a day, you'll know in a day or two as reports finalize.
