Thanks for the reply. It confirms what I thought. I just wanted to get input from more experienced colleagues so I could make an informed decision.

RE: Do or don't —forward a parked domain to a live website?
Thanks for the info. I didn't think there was any real benefit, but I wanted to make sure it wouldn't penalize the website.

Do or don't —forward a parked domain to a live website?
Hi all, I'm new to SEO and excited to see the launch of this forum. I've searched for an answer to this question but haven't been able to find out.
I "attended" two webinars recently regarding SEO. The above subject was raised in each one and the speakers gave a polar opposite recommendations. So I'm completely at a loss as to what to do with some domains that are related to a domain used on a live website that I'm working to improve the SEO on.
The scenario:
Live website at (fictitious) www.digital-slr-camera-company.com. I also have 2 related domain names which are parked with the registrar: www.dslr.com, www.digitalslr.com.
The question:
Is there any SEO benefit to be gained by pointing the two parked domains to the website at www.digitalcamercompany.com? If so, what method of "pointing" should be used?
Thanks to any and all input.
