I think these major auctions need better domain pickers.

There are some good domains in the mix surrounded by pure garbage.
The amount of garbage really detracts from the good domains.

Many of the domains in this auction are the quality of GoDaddy closeout names.

I thought that TRAFFIC auctioned premiums. What is this crap? They're almost as bad as my portfolio. LOL :sold:

[webdomain]

Looks like a way to see the auction.

http://targetedtraffic.com/auction/watch-live.php

 

[Aggro]

Overall, a bunch of bad names

Stick a fork in it

Domain live auctions have had their day

This auction will be an epic fail
Guaranteed

Truth is, the *Golden Age of Live Auctions* has already passed

I don't think domain auctions are *that* viable going forward

With every passing year the quality of domains submitted gets poorer & poorer.
Most of better domains (notably "moneyness" domains) will have been acquired by end users earlier than the poorer stuff, obviously.

Those names in strong hands aren't coming back to the market anytime soon.

So now you're left with names that obviously no end users have gone for thus far and/or names that need to be developed

Many of the names put forward nowadays might be of value to end users but to domainers - which is the main audience of auctions - they have little "moneyness" which would appeal to them
(unless they are dirt cheap, like 10% on their "theoretical" liquid value).
Stuff that needs to be developed to fulfil their potential etc

I see Tumors.com going for $30,000-$40,000, if that, based off of the auction phenomenon (other competition) more than anything else

A good name, yes. But it needs to be developed.
And a subject with little inherent "moneyness" appeal to the main audience (ie domainers) beyond a certain price point

Thanks for the clean up Eric and my apologies!

 

[NPer]

I have TLDForum.net :D

I am getting confused, how to submit domains if it is not too late :red:

Erandi, this year Rick is not using a submission form on the site. The email address which the submission should be sent to, is listed close to the bottom of the page of the link provided in my first post. (Tip: it's a gmail address, so you can use the "find" function in your browser)

3dmovie.com is a great domain. 3d is going to be very big and as I'm sure most people realize most major pictures are being released in 3d formats. Congrats! Hope it does well at auction.

 

[webdomain]

who pissed in your cornflakes Aggro! Are you just trying to ruin it for the other namepro members that got domains into this auction event. It's cool to have a different opinion...but am having a hard time with saying the traffic event is complete bullshit as it attracts all the majors from the domain industry year after year...

simply not buying your point of view here.

 

[VegasCoupons]

Aggro is broke, just ignore him.

Anyone want to golf on Wednesday in the area after TRAFFIC, hit me up.

 

[NPer]

A year ago there was no online bidding - only phone bidding.

I meant to say video streaming-I read my post now and I can see that it could mean bidding. :hehe:

@Lennco: Did you mean live video or bidding?

Would be better if people could bid online-but they probably want to keep that out to avoid non-paying bids.

 

[webdomain]

From what I've read they are pretty firmly against online bidding for the traffic auction. Hopefully phone bidding allows people to join in. End of the day it only matters that a few bidders show up interested in each of the domains listed.

Here's a press release that was posted on ricks blog about the 2012 Traffic Auction

---------- Post added at 09:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:55 AM ----------

Here is some other interesting news from that press release concerning forms for online bidding.

"Bidding for the 2012 Domain Auction is reserved for those attending the show or qualified telephone bidders. To request telephone bidding, qualified bidders must complete a request form at http://targetedtraffic.com/auction/phone-bids.php. The current auction list may be viewed at http://targetedtraffic.com/program/2012/domain-auction.php. The 2012 Domain Auction list will be finalized as the show opens."

 

[Keith]

Whats your lot #?

Lot 199 and you all should be fighting over it!

 

[finallymadeit]

i can see value in these names, tumors.com and net,amusementpark.com, 3dmovie.com, FinancialGoals.com, gtldforum.com, answeringmachines.com, AerobicExercises.com ,FanClub.com,Saws.com and MiterSaws.com, DebtService.com, QuickBuck.com, QuickBucks.com,AdultGaming.com,CloudFileServers.com,ShortTermLoan.com,OnlineWallet.com,StockPrice.com,GoldBullion.com,Eatme.com

what does everyone think of this list, agree ? disagree ?

 

[webdomain]

Didn't expect to see gtldforum.com included in nametalent's 10 picks for the traffic auction. They've just given me one more reason why I like going to their site for domaining information!

 

[lennco]

Hope everyone has been promoting their names. Let's try to get as many people to this auction as possible. Remember Friday is the last day to register to bid by phone/text.
:D

I sent out about 50 emails today

 

[NPer]

Five days left before the phat lady sings.

 

[mrcurly]

Update:

"Phone bid registrations are pouring in as the deadline closes in. SameAsCash.com leads in registrations as of last night. I think the final number will show 60% of the lots will have phone bidders."

http://www.ricksblog.com/

 

[-EM-]

So why the poor results?

Is it bad market, junk names, lack of buyers, all the above?

Being mostly junk names, no potential buyers bothered to bid.
Anyway, I am not surprised for the result.

 

[equity78]

Congrats to everyone that did make a sale, the live auction model needs to be tweaked but at least you tried.

 

[Sabre]

Lots #101 and #102 have a relatively high value, and lot #103 could fetch a tidy sum if the right bidders are at the auction - the rest are just poor. (bar one or two minor exceptions)

 

[domainscoop]

good luck to all who got submitted and including me

 

[webdomain]

From what I've read it is not too late. see email bottom of traffic auction 2012 submissions link here
