The increased revenue was a bug. The bug paid some people millions of dollars today. It was changed back to start of day 00:00, and now is showing you real revenue.

I liked that mistake

"There was a bug I am rolling it back to 00:00 of the day and re-doing the stats now.

There was a mistake made in the wrong piece of code last night when I was updating templates and the system.

Just a few minutes before it updates to what it should've been," ..oh well easy come easy go

Primary ad feed provider (Google) is banning domains parked at Bodis. Even my etrain.in got banned which has no TM issues whatever remote it may be.
Anyone has noticed as well?

Hi abidkecil,

My apologies. Please PM me your account email address so I can take a look at it. Support has too many suspended account emails from scammers and that is the reason why there is no response.

As far as the banned domains, G can ban domains for many reasons, TM infridgement and quality are the two largest, but there is many other reasons as well that they do not disclose.

Google returns the following reason for your domain:

"faillist_reason": "other"

This mean it is something other than TM infridgement. Unfortunately, that is all the information we get.

There is a difference between November 2011 Revenue and Totals for November.

Templates

Is there any way to revert some domains to the previous Bodis templates? The new templates just don't suit a few of my domains.

Or at least get rid of the picture of that mean looking woman :)

True, have the same issue.
Besides that, I really like Bodis :)

Yes I will bring it back for user accounts / domains that you'd like. Let me know what you'd like to do over PM or email is best.

As far as the revenue totals not adding up, they are larger in the monthly totals due to that bug we've had yesterday that inflated the stats. It still needs to be fixed for the monthly. I will get on this shortly.

Overall, I think this is the first time we launch new templates that clearly helped increase CTR network wide.

Yes there are a few domains and portfolios where it isn't working well (Vietnamese domains) for instance. Will enable old templates wherever it performs better to make sure everyone wins!

How about showing the pic based on traffic region? For example a Chinese girl for South-East Asia and Indian girl for India. This way you could still keep these new templates and just switch the pic alone.

Investigating now.

GREAT IDEA. I've heard it before but this time it really does make a lot of sense especially since the templates are here to stay.

The only place where it doesn't make sense is the red template on adult names. For instances cuteasians.com adult name might benefit with an Asian girl picture even though the visitor is from the US.

However, since our adult templates are used mostly anyways then this wouldn't make much impact.

I'll get to work on region specific pictures! Hopefully will have something by end of the day. :)

Matt,

These new templates all have the same photo. When can I switch this out for something else?

Probably to early to ask, but is anyone seeing any improvement in earnings with the addition of the new templates?

Looks like yesterday there was an improvement in earnings.
But today the same things as before.


How could it be ?
Almost two times less than yesterday for the same time.

Why don't you turn OFF your filters and don't block real traffic/clicks ?

What do you mean by filters for real traffic/clicks? We don't block real traffic/clicks. We only filter out traffic that we know is spam or not valid.

Such as yourself visiting would not count as a visitor.

Regardless of how many visitors or clicks we report, the revenue remains unchanged.

PS
Keep in mind we are approaching ThanksGiving holiday here in the US and traffic and results will start to dip until Monday November 28th.

actually it is just the opposite - nov 28 is cyper monday - the most important shopping day on the internet for the whole year - it is like black friday 3 days before - it is also huge .

in fact over the past 10 years of parking i noticed ( at least with my domains ) that november is the highest traffic month and the highest revenue month ( largely because of pre christmas shopping ).

however every domain account is different and if you don't have a lot of product / shopping names , there may not be an increase ,but a decrease .

Hmm interesting. I guess we will find out in the next few days to see how it does.

It trends up from here because of the holidays shopping spree all the way until New Year 2012, however, there are days I know for certain drop in traffic.

Two of these days are December 24th and December 25th.

I looked at Thanksgiving stats for past 2 years, and indeed there was no drop at that time. We will see!

I'd like to take a second and get a little off topic. We just launched our new user/custom DNS. This means our system can determine what user the domain belongs to just by looking at the DNS settings.

What does this mean?

  • You no longer have to add domains to your account, our system takes care of it automatically.
  • There are no more issues with domain conflicts.

Everyone should be receiving emails with details as we speak.

Simply instead of using:

NS1.BODIS.COM
NS2.BODIS.COM

You would point to:

NS1.{USERID}.BODIS.COM
NS2.{USERID}.BODIS.COM

And you'd replace {USERID} with your actual user ID found in the email we just dispatched.

We also took it a step further and let you create custom name servers such as: NS1.somecustomname.BODIS.COM so that you remember it. You can have upto 100 per account. (For now this can be done by contacting support, starting December 2nd it'll be available in the user interface)

I hope everyone likes this new innovation which is only available at Bodis...at least for the time being. :D

This is pretty innovative. Not having to add domains beyond a DNS change is great.

Will the new information Bodis get about users and domains produce detailed custom reports for users?

Can you explain a little more how this system will work with domains currently with Bodis, including any effect it will have on selected keywords and such?

Testing somewhere else atm, but am highly curious about this one myself.

Excellent move. I am annoyed with many domains which i bought and tried to park. It shows "domain exist in another user account." Even after my reminders many sellers don't remove the names from their parking account.

This idea is extremely super.

I appreciate.

Hi Verbster,

Not sure I understand the first question, please elaborate.

As far domains currently with Bodis, you can safely change from NS1/NS2.BODIS.COM to the user-based DNS setting. It will have no difference in keywords, etc. All of that is a completely separate layer, independent of the DNS settings! :tu:

Yes. There is a gigantically huge innovation on getting more revenue from domains, but it will be released in time for Domainfest 2012 (February 2012).

Thanks greatwebss and everyone else for the compliments. More great innovations around the corner. :tu:
