Congrats on the additional country support.

Any progress on getting into a "better bucket" for epc?

Pikachu · 03-12-2008, 10:58 AM

Very nice

**matt_bodis** · 03-12-2008, 12:34 PM

We are always slowly getting into better traffic buckets. But it's a catch 22 really, because some ad providers do not get a lot of traffic from us because they give us low earnings per click. Unfortunately, they will raise our earnings / place us in better buckets if we send bigger volumes. But what I try to explain to them is that if they raise our earnings based on our small volumes, they'll have the bigger volumes of traffic down the road (due to their better CPC)....I don't think some of them are grasping this concept.

We started testing with the additional country traffic support yesterday, and we've seen about a 30% revenue boost on our network.

We are also moving to more servers and better servers where we'll be able to quickly call 20 ad providers instead of 3 ad providers so earnings should increase once we do that as well.

And I know some have mentioned to me and messaged me about CTR drops. Unfortunately, I have not gotten around to fixing the CTR drop problem. Although, once we move to our new servers, hopefully by tomorrow night, we will have the hardware to allow us to improve those earnings/CTR.

goodkarmaco · 03-12-2008, 12:52 PM

Many great improvements here at Bodis!

Matt I see you now support Macao. My question is does Bodis support .cn names now?.

In your email today it states one of the countries is Hong Kong. Does that mean you are supporting China ?

**matt_bodis** · 03-12-2008, 01:13 PM

China, not yet. I am hoping that sometime soon we will have support for China, but I am not promising or putting any money down on this country. A lot of ad providers, and advertisers, have problems with China.

Although, we do support Hong Kong.

Agan · 03-12-2008, 04:04 PM

Thx Matt,

looks like I can move my friendster related domains back to Bodis.
I havent moved some low traffic friendster domains from bodis to test them.
Currently they get very low ppc $0.02-$0.03 .
Once the ppc are better and a better CTR I will move all back to Bodis.

Matt,
how to sign up ?? i need to sign up but always find "We are currently not accepting any new applicants. Please check back soon"

goodkarmaco · 03-12-2008, 07:45 PM

awesome,

thks Matt

How do I sign up or apply? I always find "We are currently not accepting any new applicants. Please check back soon"

firefly · 03-12-2008, 11:04 PM

You Can't sign up until version 2 is released. Hopefully soon

TruthTrends · 03-12-2008, 11:35 PM

Thanks Jason! Soon, like in the next month or two? Or soon like later this year? And what are the recommended alternatives in the mean time? Any? (Newbie here)

firefly · 03-12-2008, 11:48 PM

Soon as in soon, hopefully. Maybe Matt can shed some light on this a bit more for you. I don't think it's that far away. As for alternatives, have a look around the threads. Most companies have their own "official" thread. Check them out and see if any of them appeal to you.

**matt_bodis** · 03-13-2008, 02:49 AM

We have propagated to new servers just a few hours ago. Everything went very smoothly and beyond expectations.

I will have an email dispatched to everyone by tonight with the new server ip addresses for those of you who are resolving your domains via ip address. The old server is still running, but will be disabled about 7 days after our email notice is dispatched.

Everyone else that is resolving domains via nameservers is in the clear.

SKG · 03-13-2008, 07:44 AM

Question: When I look at my daily report and the revenue, why does the number go down the next day? Do rev numbers change when actual numbers come in?

Thanks

Thanks

I am not sure what you mean exactly? The revenue is always updated the next day. We never re-adjust the numbers after we updated the revenue (except once when the numbers were doubled and we emailed everyone about the issue).
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=318378

Are you sure it is not because you are using "Last Update" and the numbers change once we updated the revenue?

Hey Matt,

What I noticed was that one day I saw lets say 1.50 total revenue under the domain report and then the next day after the new update when I press domain report I see a different number less than the previous, ie 1.10

That is why I am curious. I have only a handful of names there right now and once things are smooth I plan on directing 1K names or more. The above never happened before so I was thinking that maybe the total that shows maybe get readjusted when real numbers come in.

**matt_bodis** · 03-13-2008, 09:00 AM

No, we do not post un-adjusted numbers.

What might've happened is that you were looking at "Last Update" from the drop down. Then the next day, an update was made for the day before that, and when you hit "Last Update" it gave you the newest update for the last day. In other words, let's say you were looking at the last update on day 1, that might've been showing March 10th. But the next day when you looked at revenue for last update, that could've been showing already March 11th.

Poohnix · 03-13-2008, 11:45 AM

Hi Matt,

I'm not sure what you have done the last few days, but I know it's made a difference...
My rev numbers were good to start with after Google dropped Ask, then were going only down for the past several days... with both visitors, clicks and revenue going down to rock bottom... Then on the last update (11th) it jumped up again, all of the numbers. I hope it continues.

Date Visits Clicks Rev
02-27 3810 53 7.01
02-28 4636 287 26.69
02-29 3433 117 13.89
03-01 3424 123 7.06
03-02 3357 207 17.32
03-03 4672 191 14.60
03-04 4637 68 4.97
03-05 2516 44 2.82
03-06 2749 27 2.02
03-07 1820 44 2.82
03-08 1815 22 1.26
03-09 1399 14 1.04
03-10 2733 19 1.34
03-11 3063 128 15.42

27th was last day with the old feed... after that the numbers actually jumped up a lot, at first... the first day (28th) was exceptional.. after that it dropped to more normal levels.. and from the 4th just down, down... down to 1/3 of the visitors, 1/10 or less of the clicks, and just over $1 in revenue.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=318378
Then, on the 11th, back to the old numbers again... at least in revenue; the visits and clicks are still lower than before, but rpc is higher, almost as high as with the old feed.
Still only one day, but I hope it's not just a one day wonder..

Keep up the great work!

**matt_bodis** · 03-13-2008, 03:50 PM

It's probably because we added those extra countries. Maybe you had a few domains that had a lot of international visitors.

As a side note, stats for yesterday have been delayed and will be updated around midnight.

**matt_bodis** · 03-13-2008, 07:31 PM

Note: Stats may be delayed up until Saturday. I appologize, someone in family is in the emergency room and I won't be back until Saturday evening.

firefly · 03-13-2008, 07:34 PM

Hope all is okay. Family comes first

GILSAN · 03-13-2008, 08:46 PM

CoolMark · 03-14-2008, 02:01 AM

I hope everything's going as smoothly as possible.
