I made about $3 with V4P. BIDO can keep it. It's nothing worth worrying about.

I don't.

But there are many factors to it (I referred to amount made, not profits made). And the word 'lot' is relative.

profit is what counts, we all know that. having lots of money passing through your hands without making anything doesn't mean a whole lot. i dont knock them for trying, but lets be realistic they even said it wasnt working for them.

It's the start of a new week at Bido, so we have reset your complimentary voting points to 0. You have all week to use these points to vote on inventory that you wish to see go to auction.

If something that you voted on sells, you become a partner in the profits. So be sure to use the credits and vote on inventory at Bido wisely. The first person to vote on an item earns the most. So be sure to check what's been submitted on a regular basis to find the gems first.

If you use up your complimentary voting points, you may exchange 1 Bido Credit for 2220 additional voting points.

The voting is kind of fun, isn't it?
And who knows, it might make you a bit of cash.
they are right, by the way, the site is much faster when you use Chrome.

You can definitely make some cash voting if you get in on the good ones early! I am just a hair over $330 earned from VoteForProfits so far...although nearly have of that was from a single sale.

Yup a few nice ones methinks. None are mine unfortunately lol. I'm a broker in the main and all these belong to various clients of mine.

Opera works really well too. I'm all for as many of us using non google browsers to reduce (even slightly) Googles stranglehold on search.

That's more than a lot of domains sell for at Bido, so you haven't done too badly.

Bido delays


I think the long delays may be the reason that a lot of names and auctions get cancelled. (Looks like about 10% to me)
The sellers probably find another buyer elsewhere while they are waiting.
