Hello, As requested...
Answer to Question #1: I don't expect very many visitors to the parked domain pages to want to make such a page as their home page, but it's nice to give them this option, and certainly causes no harm to do so. Choice is a good thing. Answer to Question #2: Under the confidentiality and trade secret protection terms of our domain parking contracts, I am not at liberty to disclose how the "Most Popular Tags" is generated.

Myself and at least one other person have brought up what we see are problems in the implementation that cross the line from parked page to fraud. Perhaps the way we phrased it didn't make them look like questions, so here are two direct questions on the implementation that were brought up and not answered as far as I can see: 1) What is the purpose of the "Make this your Homepage" link (other than the obvious to make this the person's home page). Reasonably, what expectation is there that someone who visits a page in error, or because the site they wanted no longer exists, will want that page of ads to be their permanent home page ? 2) How are the "Most Popular Tags" generated - who tags the content and how are they counted as popular ? ========================================================== Chris Candreva -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- (914) 948-3162 WestNet Internet Services of Westchester http://www.westnet.com/ _______________________________________________ domains-gen mailing list [email protected] http://discuss.tucows.com/mailman/listinfo/domains-gen
