[tweetmeme]Coming soon pages or – domain parking pages – as some like to call them, have had an increasing popularity over the last months. They serve several purposes and are now an important part of a new or existing website marketing strategy with some obvious benefits:
- Raise awareness and build traffic to your site (being featured on some css/design galleries or design blog posts)
- Strengthen your brand with a creative page
- Make your visitors take actions (register, signup for beta etc)
- Make some maintenance/upgrade work (when the site is already public)
So we put together a list of the best coming soon WordPress themes and plugins. Hope you’ll find one for your new WordPress blog or site! We actually even created a category in wp-mojo.com just for the coming soon WordPress themes! Hope you’ll like our selection!

Actually, I’d like a real PARKING PAGE… You know, where I can put a ton of relevant links to affiliate programs… etc… These are just “under construction” themes….

Most articles about WP Parking themes list only 3 themes – LaunchPad, Undercon and Changing room. This is a welcome change from that trend.
Nice article but most of the links are not working. You might need to fix that. In addition, one of the links contains malware.
By the way, if you could provide a link to download Undercon, that’d be great.
