Domain Parking Recommendations

Is parking still worth it?  Absolutely.  Many of my domains continue to earn some good income if they get traffic.  While you try to sell your domains you should still park them.  Domains awaiting development should also be parked. 

Yahoo-based services seem to be taking a hit first, as Yahoo announces changes in mondtization.  Google seems to be making note of changes in Yahoo, and following quickly with cuts in domain income.  Where to park now? 

Stability and predictibility may be more important than finding the absolute best deal right now.  Avoid new or untested parking companies.  The major players are likely to be around for years to come. 

Our recommendations take into account both income and stability.

From my own personal experience, domain parking has been on a downside. I used to buy domains to just park them and make a profit on them, now I use parking as a placeholder until I develop a domain.
Now I am just happy if a parked domain makes back what I pay for the renewal every year.
