We released DomainPower’s Monetization Decision Engine (MDE) in January of 2012, and since then have continued to implement a series of improvements that has positioned it as one of the industry’ fastest growing parking solutions.

Recently, we published a PDF that peels back the curtain to give current and future customers a deeper look into DomainPower. We reveal how and why DomainPower’s MDE works, and illustrate its performance by highlighting performances across four distinct portfolios. The growth in these highlighted snapshots is marked, and they represent the type of performance DomainPower can deliver.

This growth and performance are fueled in large part by the science and technology behind the platform, but also by our team of dedicated analysts, growing advertiser relationships and our platform users. The data we receive allows our analysts to look for improved monetization, which opens the door for new advertising relationships. It is a circuitous optimization process, where each component and business decision positively impacts the entire engine. Ultimately, what proves whether we are on the right track is how much revenue we are generating for our customers.

The Portfolios

The highlighted portfolios were chosen for two different reasons. The first, and most obvious reason, is their performance on DomainPower relative to where they were previously parked. The second is that each portfolio’s composition is representative of the different types of names domain portfolio owners target as they build their businesses.

Before: Portfolio 1 was on a parking platform that used a leading paid search network as its primary monetization option. Zero-click advertisers were reserved for domains blocked by the paid search network, regardless of whether or not the zero-click advertisers could outperform the paid search network on unblocked names.

Portfolio Makeup: Portfolio 1 had a high volume of specific niche search terms that were highly marketable to zero-click and other direct advertisers.

Optimization Method: The MDE was free to pass traffic to zero-click and direct advertisers without restriction.

Before: Portfolio 2 was on a platform using a leading paid search network with no other monetization options available.

Portfolio Makeup: The portfolio was a mixed bag of names bought on drop based solely on historical traffic.

Optimization Method: Optimization was achieved by diversifying advertising options (Direct-to-Advertiser, Zero-Click) in addition to relying solely on a leading paid search network.

Before: Portfolio 3 was on a parking platform with two leading paid search networks – Provider 1 and Provider 2. Traffic would route to Provider 2 only after it was determined Provider 1 had blocked a domain’s traffic, regardless of which monetization option might produce the highest yield.

Portfolio Makeup: High-value premium generic short-tail keyword domain names.

Optimization Method: The MDE measured high demand for short-tail keyword domains from direct advertiser and zero-click partners, and thus produced a significant lift.

Before: Portfolio 4 was on a parking platform that used a leading paid search network as its primary monetization option with secondary monetization options.

Portfolio Makeup: Wildcard Traffic (e.g. Leased Subdomains, 404 Traffic from webhosts)

Optimization Method: The MDE was able to dynamically categorize the domain at a more granular level to optimize the traffic.
