I am thinking of trying https://www.efty.com/

I'm wondering if I can get some pros and cons from members.

I have almost 300 domains so these some of the items I would like to discuss before signing up.

1. Getting the information in via excel seems to be the best option, is that correct?

2. Do I have to transfer the domain to efty or just change nameservers?

3. If I only change name servers then I have added more work because I have to maintain dates and prices in efty plus watch my registrar.

4. They seem to be in bed with Escrow and the buy now function looks like it depends on that. Is there another way to do buy now? I have my own payment processing machine and I use it or bank transfers.

5. Are there any other costs other than the quoted monthly fee.

6. Even using the excel spread sheet it looks like an awful lot of work to get everything in when there are 300 domains involved. Is it worth the time and effort on top of information already supplied by my registrar?

7. Is there a similar service and how do their tools compare?

8. Uniregistry looks like it may have similar services and ultimately it would be easier to manage the domains right from the registrar but I'm not hot on paying a 15% commission on sales. Discuss Uniregistry advantages if any.

PLEASE NOTE: Stay on topic here because I don't want to clutter up this thread with bantering.

If you have any legitimate questions about Efty to add please continue the red numbering sequence with the next number starting at #9.

Agreed. I'd be interested in trying but would like to push some offers to Sedo, GoDaddy Premium, etc.

btw - who creates logos? Do we do that ourselves? If so, does anyone farm this out to someone like fiverr or?

Got mine done from @Mylene Delis (y) - she does excellent work.

I love Efty!! Since I joined them my sales have picked up tremendously. Platform is easy to use and customer service is excellent. Definitely worth the small monthly payment.

Hi Efty users, in the last 2 months I did not receive any offers, which is not real. Prior to this, I received an average of 10-15 offers a month. At whom still so? All this looks strange, yesterday I could not visit my parked landing page, Avast antivirus blocked a page and alerted with red. I also checked, also CAPTCHA sometimes does not work, which makes it even more difficult to send offers by potential buyers.Who else has this situation. How do I remove a captcha from my landing pages?

Can you provide a sample for sale page? I'd like to check if Ad Block Plus users are also blocked. Thanks.

zero possibility of customization.
all websites look the same, it is even impossible to add a few own css lines.
and existed templates look so-so.. not good visual design..
I mean the frontpage...
how many customers do you have? a few thousands? more?
and all with the same design... the same template...clumsy style

I do know as well with Efty when you do an offer it requires the person to confirm there email with a link. if they don't YOU never get the message. plus/minus to this as it controls spam BUT if it is someone that is not computer savoy they may never confirm that email and you will never see the offer

We must probably have lost a lot of sales because of that.

Would love the ability to customize the look a bit more, I'm currently using Efty but I think the lack of customization and a few other quirks are what will ultimately lead me to find a good theme/script and host my own portfolio.

Other than that, I do like using it, and appreciate the folks at Efty being helpful and good to deal with. A free option without customization and a paid option with more freedom would be cool.

I have been saying that since I started using Efty. We should be able to customize almost everything. And also that logos should not be necessary. If we don't have a logo and we need to 'showcase' that domain we shouldn't be forced to make one. And that area for logos looks very bad if we don't put a logo in there.

You can still see the offers if they do not confirm the email. Go to INSIGHTS / INQUIRIES

NOTE: I have the lowest paid plan on an annual subscription -- so not sure if that feature is there for the Trial version...

I have received dozens of offers and I never received an email for them probably because the people who inquired never clicked on the confirmation email link!!! I hope they are still interested.

Wow. What a ridiculous thing. Stop the requirement and allow the inquiries to go through Efty!

Yes, but I can see even the ones that didn't confirm.

Looking at my insights> inquiries I have had 1455 inquiries since June 21:xf.eek:
Some legit but I am sure glad they are not getting through to me unless verified.
100's of inquiries on sept 18-19

Funny thing is I had an inquiry and sale in October and cant see it on the list

On Oct 8, 2017, at 11:08 AM, Efty <[email protected]> wrote: You have a new confirmed inquiry!

Guess when I deleted the name, the inquiry got deleted from their system

I agree the spam or confirmation request is a good thing as me to would hate to get all that spam BUT on the flip side like some said you can still see the request but if you dont log in often you could miss out.

Maybe a notification can be sent to us that an OFFER is pending so that will tell us to log in and check it out IF they have not confirmed their email say like in 24-48 hours

did they ever give you an offer from the first request? if not they may not have been able to pay for it anyway...Think of it in those terms ;)

Yep, $200 initial offer for a first name .io .. The name is middle eastern and the buyer wanted to buy because it's his first name. No big worries but it's obvious I lost a sale.

Hi guys,

Please check whether all your domains are correctly redirecting to YOUR default landing page or not.

I recently bought a domain that was previously owned by another efty user and they haven't removed it from their marketplace, I have added the domain to mine and set the nameservers but it redirects to the other user's landing page! I have contacted Doron and I'm sure he will sort this out.

That's a big problem we have here. If Efty starts removing domains that expire from the marketplace than we will have to re-add them after renewal. And what if someone sells a domain to a re-seller but doesn't remove it from his efty marketplace?

Check all your domains guys.
