What if two people are in a domain dispute and one of them had the domain name first, but the other one had a business with the name first for a much longer period of time?

Anyone have any experience with AdBrite either as an advertiser or publisher? I have heard a lot about them recently, but am looking for some more informative insight before I jump in.

Hi guys, realizing that some of my domains which are currently parked do received some traffic here and there occasionally, but there seldom incurred any clicks in them and didn't earn me a good income, in fact they were almost zero.

So I am thinking, instead of wasting the potential trafic for these domains, wouldn't it be better if I were to point them to my main site which is developed and ready to received more traffic!

However, I am quite concern as to would doing this could potentially hurt my SERP or not? I have this concern due to such practise might be viewed as "bumping" or "blackhat" trick to the eye of major SE. I have no worries if I only point 2 or 3 domains, but I plan to build up a little bit of my domain portfolio and point them (about 20domains) to the main site, that's why I am little bit concern about this.

Or did I "over" anxious?:p

Good day to everyone! Good mood today as I have been making some progress lately. By the way, I wonder if a domain has word "The" in it especially at the beginning, would it sort of killing off the value?

Has you ever had this type of domain in your portfolio? How does it performing? As a domain investor, has it been able to reap good return for you?

Hi everyone, as we aware, 2letters and 3letters domains are almost impossible to get. So now what about 4letters domains? Have you got any luck in landing a nice one? If you do have would you kind enough to share with us your experience?

Are they really worth the expense for someone to purchase it over from previous owner? In regards to spending the money to buy over these domains, what's your advise for someone investing on these domains just because of the short length?

I am reading the other thread, and tried to google PR7 and what you are talking about, but can't find a simple explanation. I know it might be a boring question to answer, but help me out, ok?

I have been wondering which parking program people have been having the most success with. Which do you find is the best and where do you park most of your domains?

I personally have had great success with Fabulous (because I have a large gambling portfolio and they offer high payouts for these names). I park other names at Sedo, but have never witnessed good traffic conversions.

Hi everyone, good day to you. I wasn't paying attention to this particular area until recently it just kind of sparks of my mind. Ok, my question is, if a domain has changed the ownership and reflected in the whois record, will this also affect the SERP for the domain or site(if already developed)?

Well, we all aware that google looks at the "aging" factor, so if the ownership is changed, wouldn't it appear to google that the domain is "new" in the sense that the domain is with "new" onwer? Or google just look at the "original" domain creation date?

Anyone has actually take note of this area? kind to share your experiences?

Speaking of Dispute and legal claim issues, it sparks of my memory of the old days back in 2004 where google was taking the issue toward booble.com (adult search engine). In its email to booble.com, Google claimed that :-

Quote:Your use of the Domain Name and corresponding web site constitutes trademark infringement and dilution of Google's trademarks and unfair competition under federal and state laws. Further, your improper duplication of Google's trade dress on the web site will mislead consumers into believing that some association exists between Google and you, which tarnishes the goodwill and reputation of Google's services and trademarks. Your registration and use of the Domain Name is in bad faith pursuant to the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy ("UDRP") and is clearly designed to appropriate the goodwill associated with the famous GOOGLE mark in violation of the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act ("ACPA"). In addition, you would not be able to demonstrate any rights or legitimate interests in the Domain Name because you are using it to tarnish the GOOGLE mark.
