Frequently Asked Questions

What is a parked domain?

A parked domain displays placeholder content, ads, or a "for sale" page instead of a functioning website. Domain parking is commonly used by registrars, investors, and aftermarket platforms to monetize unused domains.

How does parking detection work?

We analyze DNS records (CNAME, NS), HTTP redirects, and HTML content patterns to identify known parking providers like Sedo, Bodis, Afternic, HugeDomains, and more. Multiple signals increase confidence.
