Can't reveal the name, as that would ruin the appeal for it to be reported as major breaking news!
Shocker! A domain got a low-ball offer and no sale was made!!!! It basically never happens! The odds are similar to seeing Rhode Island number...
At this point, I have given up that GD will sort out anything.
@GoDaddy
James, help me to convert those prices. I am tired keeping switching to US - English at this point.
They don't think in terms of "harm", "do no harm". They think in terms of impact on bottom line. And, unless there is large enough outcry and damage in other areas because of this, they make more money this way and that is all that matters for them.
They are aware of it, they have added it into the to do list, but it is not a priority right now, so don't expect a change in the near future.
PS wow, I would do really great as a GD rep.
The renewal varies depending on the membership status. E.g. you pay around $10/year for .com instead of $21 if you have DDC membership.
The best way is a) display the renewal fee as prominently as the actual bid amount b) on the bid...
Interesting question.
First, about GD valuations. I have seen few guys mention that their STR for names valued by GD under $1400 tend to be drastically lower. So some elect to blank drop those as overall the category loses more than it makes. I...
@GoDaddy please don't simply brush this off as UX issue.
It is a legal, moral etc. issue here. It is like offering an item for $1 in bold and then having tiny fineprint that the client has to pay $1000 in shipping fees. And, it is apparent from...
I assume Dan was agile enough to create holding accounts with most registrars. While Afternic is more GD-centered and doesn't believe it needs to make having names elsewhere easier. Basically, Afternic will handle LTO only if the name can be...
JJVC is obviously way better. mid xxx wholesale, mid xxxx$ end user.
VCJJ his hard to put a meaningful acronym behind. Low xxx wholesale, low xxxx end user.
not sure what you mean. Unless you drastically change the pricing, small change shouldn't affect the number of months.
Lock/unlock doesn't affect me, because my names are with GD, but I can see that if they are elsewhere, then GD cannot take...
Not sure why it takes weeks. I did it within hours for tens of thousands of domains. I sorted them by price (longer period for the pricier ones), chose 500 per page, selected a page and bulk edited LTO for those.
imo, email, phone and name are the bare minimum and the golden standard that is used throughout the net... Pretty much anyone provides this data in the inquiries with zero problems.
