Better to change DNS or add a suffix?

handy · 12-21-2007, 12:35 PM

I put 22 domains on Sedo a week ago and opted for their forward technique of just adding their domain at the end of mine instead of changing all the DNS entries, especially since I don't know how to do the latter anyway. GoDaddy said they won't allow DNS changes in bulk (perhaps they don't want to help people park for free?), so I chose the easier way of just adding a Sedo suffix. After a week without a single hit, I wonder...should I have changed the DNS entries instead? Would that have made me more visible/viral, or did I just buy crummy Domain names. Thanks.

If your domains are reg'd at Godaddy then changing the name servers in bulk is easy.

On the main page upper left you'll see domains drop down. Go to domains>>my domains.

Once you are there click the check box next to the domains you want to change (you can click multiples). Then click "nameservers" on the upper menu. Chose custom nameservers and you can write in the name servers you want. For Sedo the name servers are ns1.sedoparking.com and ns2.sedoparking.com.

You may want to consider joining a different parking provider like parked.com. Sedo clicks can pay pretty low. PM me if you'd like a refferal.

It is more SEO friendly to change the DNS to Sedo's nameservers.

Just because your domains have not received any traffic doesn't mean they are "crappy". I've owned some domains for quite awhile before they received decent traffic and conversions.

Of course generic .com's with type in traffic are the most valuable and easy to monetize. The PPC pricing multiple does not reflect a domains whole value.
