Google emailed advertisers that existing accounts would be automatically opted out of serving on parked domains, matching the default already applied to new accounts. Advertisers who want the traffic must re-enable it under Content suitability. Initially set for March 19, 2025 and later pushed to May 5.
The change rolled out over several months. Parked domains were removed from the Search Partner Network entirely on February 10, 2026.
