The biggest investment in ccTLDs that I’ve made is from our very own .PH domain names. One thing that I did notice is that I noticed is that dotPH is now using all the unregistered and unused PH domain names for online advertising purposes…

… I wouldn’t condemn dotPH for what they do, it is simply up to us domainers or domain name owners to use our domain names when we register it with them. These ads are only served to domain names that are unused (left with the default name server) or unregistered domain names. It is our choice whether we allow it to happen or not, we could direct it even to a parking page or point it elsewhere if we didn’t want ads to appear for dotPH.

What dotPH is doing is actually what it should’ve done a long time ago. If you look at unused domain names in GoDaddy, notice how its all parked with ads which you have no share of and goes to GoDaddy. I would even say is that what they’re doing is great for us who invests in domain names. Why? It’s not like GoDaddy that uses PPC ads, but it’s direct advertisers which raises awareness towards huge companies like Robinsons etc., this then sets the trend for other companies to follow and advertise more online.

This move by dotPH is a fair move, it raises awareness and they also earn from it. With this move, I believe that it shouldn’t be too long before people get to understand the power of domain names and how it affects SEO in a big manner, therefore increasing our domain name’s values and potential advertisers to advertise on our PH websites. Thank you Del for pointing that out.
