As far as people following links on parked pages: If that's not happening then the idiot is not the domain owner but the one paying for the link on the domain. Parked domains get paid by the click on those links and I can tell you that people are buying those links. I have a handfull of parked domains and can see that.

I can make more money by developing those domains but there comes a point where a domain owner cannot develop 100's of websites, so parking still brings in money.
I don;t dispute that. There's probably a few clicks every day, they offset the registration cost. Sure.

For a name to be worth millions that way, it'd have to generate hundreds of thousands in monthly ppc revenue, which then'd mean millions of clicks, which then'd mean, with nowadays CTR's billions of daily users. There's just no billions of daily users.

So, does sex.com make a few grand a year in type-in ppc ? I'm sure it does. Much more than that ? I'm sure it doesn't.
