I parked my domains at ParkingCrew.com. After almost 6 months of no income I decided to test the sites reporting integrity. I used 3 internet blogs that I currently own to advertise my domains that were parked at Parkingcrew.com My blogs currently receive about 36K uniques a month organic traffic with a bounce rate average of 34% for the 3 blogs combined. I also used 100% paid human traffic programs through a reputable banner and links exchange program to effectively advertise my domains that had no income at Parkingcrew.com During the campaigns which ran two weeks. I used two analytics programs Google Analytics and Clicky Analytics. After the 2 a weeks of campaigns I looked at my traffic reports at parkingcrew.com and compared Uniques,Clicks and CTR(-Click Through Rate.)When I looked at Google and Clicky they were exactly the same. However The reports at Parkingcrew.com were dramatically lower. I emailed them the following day to ask why their reporting system was not the same as Google or Clicky and that I wanted my money that was earned. They told me My traffic was fraudulent and proceeded to keep my money that was earned and closed my account. Do not due business with Parkingcrew.com They will monetize your domains for themselves. Their reporting is erroneous and communication is poor at best!

#1 UPDATE Employee
Reason for Traffic discrepancy and non payment
AUTHOR: ParkingCrew - (Germany)
SUBMITTED: Monday, October 12, 2015
Dear Sirs,
thanks a lot for your message. We take reports like this very seriously and want to respond to what you stated.
First of all, let me address the reasons why your traffic tracking program might show numbers that differ to what we reported:
- we show unique visitors not total visitors. Thus, a visitor that showed up twice in a certain timeframe is counted as one unique visitor. The visitor can still click and generate revenues on both occasions.
- we have some of the strictest bot filters in the industry, thus your tracking programs might have counted visitors that were not counted by us as they were identified as bots
Secondly, let me address the reason for non-payment. In your complaint you stated:
"I used 3 internet blogs that I currently own to advertise my domains that were parked at Parkingcrew.com"
as well as
"I also used 100% paid human traffic programs through a reputable banner and links exchange program to effectively advertise my domains that had no income at Parkingcrew.com"
This clearly violates our GTCs, specifically §5.9:
(9) The customer commits himself to neither allow himself nor a third party to intentionally nor negligently do the following:
- to change and / or obscure all or part of the search results or else the whole or any part of the landing page.
- to edit, filter or shorten search queries by appending terms or altering them in any other form.
- to automatically generate searches on a domain.
- to obstruct the view of a landing page or the search results or to erase it using a frame.
- to load or present a landing page in a pop-up, pop-under, Exit-Window or similar representations forms.
- Directly or indirectly:
- provide incentives to visitors to generate searches or to click on search results
- to fraudulently generate searches or clicks or
- modify searches.
- to automatically retrieve landing pages or search results through "crawl", "spider", indexing, "cache" or otherwise.
- to monetize domains through the Team Internet that violate the trademark rights of a third party.
Thanks a lot for giving us a chance to clarify these issues.
