Parking at Sedo

[goervin]

I am new to your group and have not used sedo's service before. I want to park some domain names at sedo. I have set up an account. I have tried to park the domains but can not find out how to enter them into their database. Each time I follow the "Add your Domain" link it puts me into the Add your domains for Sale. I do not want to sell them. I want to park them. How do I park them without puting them up for sales

You must list them to park them and then forward your names to Sedo. You don't have to sell them. Just list them as "Make Offer" and don't accept any offers.

Here are the instructions from their FAQ

===================================
How do I park my domains with Sedo?

First, all of the domains that you wish to be parked must be entered into Sedo's database. Without this step, the Domain Parking will not work!

Then, there are two ways to park your domains with Sedo: Name Server Forwarding and URL Forwarding. The best method for you depends on whether your registrar allows URL or Name Server forwarding.

METHOD 1: NAME SERVER FORWARDING
At your registrar, change your Name Server settings to the following:

Primary Server Name: NS1.SEDOPARKING.COM
Primary Server IP: 217.160.95.94

Secondary Server Name: NS2.SEDOPARKING.COM
Secondary Server IP: 217.160.141.42

METHOD 2: URL FORWARDING
If your registrar allows you to forward your domain to a URL, forward to:

http://www.sedo.com/parking/domain.com
(where "domain.com" is replaced by your domain name)

Thank you Catalyst. I just did not want to contactoraly obligate my self in some way and get into trouble latter for it. Love the work you do here.

Double check the rules, but I believe the only time you are obligated to sell is if you make a firm price offer and someone meets your price. I know for usre you don't have to accept any offers if you list it as "make offer"
