A parked domain is one that is taken, however it's not linked to some other service - web or email hosting. Essentially, this type of domain won't load any real content if you type it in an Internet browser, but nobody else can take it as you have already registered it and you are its owner. The main advantage of obtaining a domain name and parking it afterwards is the fact that you will be able to keep it and not worry that someone else might register it meanwhile if, for example, the site for it is not ready yet. You can create a temporary Under Construction webpage for a parked domain address while you are working on the web site, or direct it to another web address - temporarily or permanently. The latter option can be employed if you have already registered domain.com, for instance, and you obtain domain.net and domain.org, so that you can protect a brand name or a trademark. In such a case, the .net and .org domain addresses can be parked and directed to the .com because you do not need separate sites for them.
