domains Abnormal Traffic (Sedo)

[Andreas B.]

Hi,

I had a look at the new 'traffic filter' option over at sedo,
and found some unbelievable great traffic for ... not the best domain names, lets put it like that.

You can see it by your own:

bots. spammed hard.

Edit: Be careful with such domains. If you also park for revenue, and have such names listed, they might ban your parking account. The ban is permanent.

I got myself banned after 3 names of this kind. It doesn't prevent me from selling domains but I can't park for revenue at Sedo (fortunately I'm not interested in that).

that makes that 'traffic metrics' completely unreliable and meaningless.

Unfortunately yes.

Note: I have a means to exclude junk traffic and only clean allowed to pass. In the past I made and used a filtering traffic application that cleans junk traffic well. Used it with Afternic parking, after the fiasco with Sedo that caught me by surprise. Also with paid traffic from AdWords and other cases.

Might make it public, still considering though.

I did own a startup previously with the same tech.

Edit: you get better insight from within it, such as where they are coming from and you might even realize what the visitors are looking for / ideas for sales not just the click numbers.
