For all of those domainers that park domains, Google is finally allowing Adsense to be placed on parked domains.  That’s right, this is a full blow parking service provided by Google and is available to all USA Adsense accounts.

Apparently from December 11th, 2008 to December 18th, 2008 all Adsense accounts will have this feature enabled.  If its not in your account yet, be patient.

Unlike most parking providers, Adsense requires participants to create A name and CNAME records for each domain added to the Adsense for Domains parking program.  Providing your domain(s) are using your Registrars nameservers, this is not a big deal unless you plan to serve Adsense on a large number of parked domains.  Hopefully Google will decide to handle each domains DNS in the future which would certainly make the parking program easier for people to use.

How this new program will impact existing domain parking companies is anyone’s guess.  My gut tells me it’s not going to be pretty and will significantly cut into their bottom line.  These parking companies may ultimately end up serving mostly those that do not have an Adsense account.

One thing is certain.  It will be interesting to see how much money my parking provider was actually taking!
