what's up with some domains being abused
 

how is it that people with domains like videos.com, pictures.com, software.com, pics.com, whatever you can think of.... it seems like people are missusing these names.

what the fuck?

ps. went to whatthefuck.com and got another useless site.

i thought the same thing today when i was looking for a couple good domains to buy, and 90% of them went to crappy search pages. fuckin useless.

welcome to the internet :2 cents:

Agreed brotha.

it's a shame

there should be a mandate on names like those....

things would be so orderly. what a perfect world we dont live in.

Order and capitalism don't mix

domainsponsor / custom parking pages / etc (ie. mens.com).

It's all about bottom line and no labour.

Hello :thumbsup

because there is more money in parking the domains and making ppc dollars!

98% of my domains are parked and it brings in some nice chink of change.

where do you park 'em? domainsponsor?

domainsponsor is pretty good.

I like domainsponsor, but there are private groups that get good deals from feed providers.

triumph, you have mail
:thumbsup

that make's sense. i bet it's just a matter of time that someone figures out a better business model for these names though.

It's a plot by the search-engine illuminati to train surfers not to type-in domains anymore. Think of it. The more you type-in a domain and get a PPC page, the more you'll learn to use Yahoo or Google instead to find what you need.
