Did you purchase a domain name with the intention of staring a website or a blog? If so, did you? Unfortunately, we all have goals that we do not meet. If one of your goals includes a parked domain name, which is not in use, don’t wait any longer. Why waste money by letting your domain name sit unused, but already paid for? The good news is that you can do so without ever creating that website or blog.

So, how can you make money with an unused domain name? By participating in a parking monetization program. A domain name parking monetization program is one in which you are paid for allowing advertisements to be associated with your domain name. When an internet user visited your domain at, EXAMPLE.com, they may have found a “page not found,” or a “this website is under construction,” message. Instead, they will now get targeted advertisements.

You can make money with parked domains. As previously stated, use a program that specializes in generating income for parked domains. Sponsored Domains, Sedo, and Google AdSense for Domains are just a few of your options. These companies put pay-per-click advertisements on the page associated with your domain name. Each time an ad is clicked, you make money.

You can make money when you sleep. If making money on an unused domain wasn’t enough, you can make money when you sleep. In fact, you can make money doing anything you want. Are you at the park with your kids? Are you working at your full-time job? Are you researching other ways to make money online? It does not matter. Pay-per-click advertisements appear 24/7, meaning they are always there and ready to be clicked on. It is hard to make money doing nothing, but it is easy with a parked domain name.

With a moneymaking program for parked domains, there are no web hosting costs. As previously stated, parked domains use pay-per-click advertisements to make money. A popular pay-per-click program is that of Google AdSense. Google AdSense is best on content filled websites. Content drives internet traffic, including organic visits from search engines. This increases traffic and clicks. So, why not just do that? Because content cannot be displayed on a domain name without a web hosting package. That costs money, about $100 or more a year.

As previously stated, many websites and companies will help you monetize a parked domain. Domain Sponsor, Google AdSense for Domains, and Sedo are just three of your options. You can find more by performing a standard internet search. Programs rarely disclose exactly how you make money, but research online to find those with the best results, lowest pay-outs, or the best reputation among webmasters.

With domain name parking, you can stop at any time. Not only that, you can stop without losing any money. Did you receive a purchase offer for your domain name or have you decided to sell it? If so, do it. When this sale occurs, your agreement with the pay-per-click program you chose ended. Even with a termination, you should still get all money earned.

As you can see, monetizing a parked domain name has its advantages. It is an easy way to make money. Since you already purchased the domain name and just aren’t using it, there are no further expenses. Unless of course, you see significant profits and want to specialize in monetizing parked domains.
