It’s been more than four years since @lionel_efty and I set out on a mission to change the way domain name investors manage, market and monetize their portfolio’s. And what a ride it has been!

After a private beta with a small group of users, we decided to turn to NamePros.com in December 2014 to announce our public beta and with an open invite for anyone to sign-up and provide feedback. And feedback we got. A lot. In fact, the feedback has never stopped and it is safe to say that it is thanks to the community here that Efty transformed from our humble vision of a domain portfolio management tool into the full-fledged sales platform it is today and that we’re continuing to build for you.

Pretty much all of the new features we shipped over the past few years were build on top of the original framework that we developed for Efty back in 2014 which resulted in a somewhat bloated application that isn’t always as fast and bug-free as we like it to be and frankly, has started to look a bit tired.

That’s why we set out to completely revamp the application, streamline the menus, simplify navigation and build a responsive layout for all devices and operating systems. The result is a platform with a strong emphasis on helping you make more money, by driving more sales and better reporting.

We think it’s turning out awesome but we need some unsalted feedback before we flip the switch and roll it out to our entire userbase.

And what better place to turn for feedback than here on NamePros? The very same place we announced the first version of our platform :)

The new Efty is not just old wine in new bottles. We already incorporated a lot of feedback and delivered on a lot of the popular request posted by members in the many Efty threads on the forum.

With the new Efty, you can:
  • Create custom categories for your marketplace (yay!)
  • Rearrange the order of premium domains on your homepage
  • Remove the Make Offer form from the marketplace (for your BIN domains)
  • Get in-app notifications for new inquiries and transactions.
  • Turn on/of logos in your marketplace or For-Sale landing pages.
  • Show listings on your marketplace in chronological or alphabetical order.
  • Activate two-factor authentication for added security
  • Quickly see which of your domain names are under review.
  • Add a Privacy Policy page and place Active Consent checkboxes on your Make Offer forms.
To help us test drive the #NewEfty you sign into your Efty account via https://app.efty.com/login/

And please, do let us know what you think in the comments. Did we miss something? Spotted a bug? Love it, hate it? All feedback, comments, questions, and suggestions are very much appreciated.

This is a paid post.

The views expressed on this page by users and staff are their own, not those of NamePros.
I sold a name and the current owner wants me to remove my listing.
How do I do this?
eftymarket-dot-com/buy_it_now_paypal/ domain/iqwe/

Sorry for hijacking your post, but I am not allowed to PM anyone.
nor am I allowed to post links
Log in, go to Portfolio, click on the domain, then click pinkish Delete button?

It’s pretty clear

All you need to do is change the status of the domain name from Portfolio to Sold. When the new owner ads a domain name to his/her account that is already listed in another Efty user's account it will be placed "Under review" and they can email us proof of ownership to expedite the approval process. Once we have verified ownership the domain name will show in the new owner's account.

This is a better solution than deleting the domain name from your account because one of the cool things about Efty is being able to keep track of domains you've sold so that the system can give you insights in your financial performance etc.

Hi Rob, this sounds like a browser cache issue. Try a hard refresh with CTRL+F5, open the site in Incognito mode or clear your browser cache. If that doesn't do the trick please contact us with the url and we will have a look at it.

Hey @Doron Vermaat , so before I could try that..Now this morning my Efty Market place/ Domain address won't load.. ( www.DomainBarracks.com ) Link in my signature..

This has happened after I made changes with the new updates, Theme, Logo and SSL security update

Have I done something wrong? As it won't open my Name on my mobile phone now either

it's not because you changed something, mine is also not working.. that's the only thing I don't like about Efty, every other day the site is down!

I prefer using my marketplace page as a landing page but I am forced to use landing pages because the marketplace is not loading at times, so there will be no way for visitors to contact me!

Every website needs updates, but for some reason they are still up 24/7, why are our marketplaces down every other day?

@Haris Thanks for letting me know, at least the worry of it being on my end is gone, knowing you have the same issue, as I was just researching how to fix it , seems I can't, we will have to wait. Though I did email Efty Support as Doron suggested

So if anyone is forwarding to theirmarketplace/domain/toptoptip.top
for example for ssl reasons your landers are down?

We've made some server upgrades upgrades yesterday which resultated in some downtime.

The issue was fixed earlier today (around 8 hours ago) and I am making sure we are looking into how we can prevent this next time.

Thats in settings> For sale landing pages>Redirect Landers. I use do not redirect, the other two would have been affected. Honestly first time i saw it down, when you said its every other day it had me concerned
I'll keep a closer eye on it, thanks for the info
I recently registered a domain just for a marketplace url, very happy with what I have created and is a vast improvement over a year ago when the landers took 20 seconds to load. I was inspired to do it when I saw what you did at HeroNames.com
Support is first class too, were lucky to have them here.

:shifty:They still haven't put the landing page theme drop down in alphabetical order..how hard can that be?
Seriously, I may want to switch them all to call to action, score an 800 number free for a month and switching back is a pain in the ass when its non-alphabetical

Still good value for the money if your serious about domains

Hey @Doron Vermaat ,

One more thing. It would be great if we can choose more than one category for a domain name.

When I say every other day I can't say for sure, it's random, if @DomainBarracksRob wouldn't have mentioned it I would've never found out that the marketplace is down, but it happens more often than it should, and it can lead to problems. If I use my [email protected] email to send a email to the buyer and they want to check if I am legit and visit the site and it doesn't load, they might feel it's a scam. The biggest reason I want to have a marketplace is to create trust.

HeroNames.com is still in beginner stage, I want to change the look, add more logos, I will have to spend many hours for that.

Trying to do some bulk editing. Would like to change the names that show on efty market, and remove some from efty marketplace.
Can't do this in bulk until you add check boxes for
Show On Efty Market
Premium

Can you add these two features to bulk edit?

I'll see if we can add these two to the bulk editor.

Been quiet for 3 months. Thanks for adding new landers @Doron Vermaat @lionel_efty @Michael Cyger
I am always trying to tweek and play with all the landers, and love certain bonus features I have discovered :xf.smile:
Read your blog often https://blog.efty.com/ .
Spent my morning making modifications, test how things look on my mobile devices. Added new names and have made some adjustments to the wording of USP to make them all fit in 2 lines for home/garden
You have a great selection of landers.
A comment on your new landers, at your blog about having the option of make offer OR contact us form on landers is something I would like to see as well.:xf.grin:
Lets discuss Samir, your newest template. It is almost exactly what I am looking for. The picture of what appears to be asparagus, just doesnt fit with crypto, cannabis or blockchain. But your almost there imo
I of course use http://www.eftylent.com/?picker=true&tpl=samir when checking out how themes look.
A few tweeks and we may have my perfect lander.

Landers will be called Contact Us 1,2 and 3
3 themes just like udrp safe themes
Change the footer area of samil( new contact us theme) to the same as udrp safe, home and garden theme, imperative for me that I have this footer
Make contact us theme 1 same color as udrp safe 1, make contact us theme 2, same as udrp safe 2 color and background.
Taking a closer look, maybe solid colors would be better, the color of udrp 2 makes the white lettering harder to see. udrp1 has nice color background, where the wording is, it is darker. Is the one I use.
Thats about it. Samil format with udrp theme footer and background,with or without the solid colors

Would this be possible? Or even better, the best, would be to give us the option of contact us or make offer form for each landing page.
Thanks for reading this article, writing is not exactly my forte

I spent to much time yesterday testing the new efty. Not a productive one. Built a marketplace, site was offline quite a bit.
Theme picker for marketplace wouldn't work, partly because the site was not resolving, and when it was up, I would change themes, but it wouldn't change the layout of the marketplace site. I confirmed this with other people.
Building a page on facebook, to promote my names,when i add a url from efty, it shows decent "slogan" this domain for sale etc, but only the cannabis theme would display a thumbnail pic, sometimes, the others this ugly icon looking thing.
Switched to do not redirect my landers, no difference. Some themes display the background image nicely on FB when i add the link, others don't. 2 landers with same theme would display to different appearances when posted on FB.Little thumbnail to left, or large above text.
A little tinkering this morning, enough time wasted, where do i send invoice
Did you have some down time yesterday?
I choose a name, again, just for a sales portfolio name for efty, last time it turned out a mess and i created a bunch of broken back links. Still 170 pages in google. Domain has not resolved for over a month.
Facebook doesn't have 404 redirect, so I dismembered the current set up I had to not create any more bad links.
Lucky this marketplace site wasn't up long enough to get indexed in google, because it was down all day. Plan is now to redirect name to facebook page, I dont want 170 broken links going to 404 pages

And a pain in the back end, editing each name to make premium and show on my marketplace individually .
I had to visit my marketplace site to see which names were "premium" or "show on efty market" and delete them, and then individually edit each name to appear on marketplace and/or make it premium to show on homepage. 180 names to sort through( couple hours there)
Efty was going to be my marketplace site for strictly .ca weed names, is why this was all happening.
I want to ad links of my landers to facebook page(s).

3 months you havent added the two features i requested above, being able to check "premium" and "add to efty market, in bulk edit mode.
When adding links to face, I get ugly generic thumbnail, large thumbnail about text, or nice thumbnail
beside text. How can we rectify this so I have a nice thumbnail when i post a link on facebook, maybe other social media places, I havent gotten that far yet.

We have had many feedback on the new landing pages and it's clear that many of you really like the Samir template and would love similar functionality acrosss more (or all templates). I am looking into how we can help with that and how it fits into our development roadmap.

Yes, unfortunately, you just happened to test your marketplace while we had some issues with our server which affected load-time for a segment of marketplaces. This was resolved within a couple of hours so hopefully, everything worked smoothly for you later on during the day. I am not sure if this effected the tumbnails for sharing sharing (ie, Facebook). I would need to look into that.

You can bulk edit which names should show on your marketplace (Premium yes/no) and Efty market (Yes/No) for your entire portfolio at once with our bulk update and edit tool that works with a spreadsheet. It's super easy and fast: https://app.efty.com/domains/import/

I started to tryout Efty yesterday. I submited one inquiries on my own domain to make sure it will works as intended.:xf.cool: Everything works great(y) but all of the sudden, some odds inquiries records (SPAM) started to appear in my account and the creation date is 2017.:dead:
I have attached the Screenshot for your reference.

By the way, I read some articles mention that Efty have a lifetime plan but I cannot find it in the subscription page .:xf.frown:

Those spam inquiries are a legacy issue from before we implemented captcha protection on Efty and were targetted by millions of spam bots. It means some of the domains you just added received spam in the past. You can delete them and I can assure you won't get any now or in the future.

The Lifetime plan was exclusively for beta testers so you are about 4 years too late to qualify for that plan :)
