New Templates & Bulk Add Improvements

We've been having a field day recently with new data, domain analysis tools, etc. that we now have access to through the Parked.com acquisition of WhyPark. We've made a few updates this week leveraging some of this technology including the following:

1. Two new templates that include dynamic images based on the theme or category of the domain. A domain's theme is analyzed behind the scenes and assigned along with a top-level category. We're adding hundreds of new images weekly at the theme level, which is highly targeted and relevant. If we don't yet have an image for that theme, then the category image is used. So, you may find that your site has a category image now, but a week from now has a much more relevant image. If you're using these new templates, your images will update automatically.




2. It's been great to hear all of the positive feedback over the past months about how customers are using our "bulk add sites" tool to get relevant sites online quickly and painlessly. We've improved the tool yet again with these newest updates:

  • More reliable keyword splitting. While it was good before, we think it's much better now with the ability to reliably split many words in a domain, which is then used as the site's title.
  • Automatic categorization of a domain as it's added in bulk.
  • Use of the two new templates above with category or theme-specific images rather than the use of a default template. We're now rotating the use of these templates as domains are bulk imported to add some variety.
  • Related search terms are added instantly, rather than having to wait those pesky 3 minutes between import and assignment of the terms.

Our wheels have been spinning with new ideas that we're feverishly working on. Be sure to subscribe to our RSS feed or visit http://blog.whypark.com often.
