Hey Folks,

I've just started using squadhelp.com to list some of my brandable. So far I have 76 domains listed, there is no fee to list. I've had some decent action so far in the way of interested buyers but no sales as of yet. I've only been with them for 1 week now.

A bit of a summary review of SquadHelp:

PROS
  • No Listing fee
  • No Logo design fee
  • Ability to submit your names to end users holding naming contests
  • Ability to chat directly or send a message directly to end users.
  • Stats of your marketplace domains are shown in the marketplace dashboard.
  • Their customer service and support has been great, 24hr a day chat.
  • Ability to increase or decrease the list price of your domains or to show a discount. You can decrease or increase the price yourself by $200. If you want to lower more, you can contact support.
  • End users can shortlist your domains before they make a decision on which they want to purchase. The number of shortlists is shown in you marketplace dashboard.
  • When you submit your names you get to set the price you wish to get. Because their commissions are high I recommend listing at a higher price to offset the commission costs.
  • Their landing pages are fairly basic but they work. Because the marketplace is fairly new, I'm sure we will see style improvements in the future.
  • One thing I really like is they accept multiple extensions. I have listed .co and .io along with .com
  • Each seller gets a direct link to their marketplace portfolio, HERES MY PORTFOLIO. It is handy if your trying to p[promote your portfolio through social media.
  • I like that their marketplace doesn't have tens of thousands domain listings like BB. They are fairly strict on the domains they accept to list and so this helps keep the number of domains in the marketplace down and gets your listings more exposure.
CONS
  • Their commissions are very high, depending on the domain name they are usually between 30% and 35%. However, there are no listing fees, no logo design fees, so in the end their commission is very similar to brand buckets.
  • Their logos are not top quality, in fact I requested to have some of my logos remade.
  • I think they have a big backlog of logos to design, the wait time for logo design has been around 1 week, but your names are still listed while the logos are being designed.
  • After your names are accepted you need to agree to their commission rate, at this point you also need to apply your own keywords, descriptions etc. I found this was very time consuming.

Extremely disappointed as I just found out some of my domains don't show up on atom.com

For example I searched for "kids" domains and majority of the domains that show up are random made up krizy dimzy blah blah and fortunately there is an option to see domains with the word "kids" in them, i went through all of them but couldn't find my domain there!

Even though the listing is of "Plus" tier and the domain also has atom nameservers and a logo and BIN price!!!

I typed both keywords and still it was not shown! Then in the search bar I typed the domain with the .com and only then my domain showed up.. this is ridiculous

Atom was extremely competitive yesterday for transferring .com's and is uncompetitive today (even as an Edge member). When NetSol has a lower price than you, you know you're uncompetitive ($11.19 vs $11.65). And there are much better transfer deals than NetSol as well (Spaceship, Hostinger, IONOS, Gandi, Dreamhost, etc)

@Atom.com navigating to exact matches of a term doesn't show their logos and the text is badly formatted. "Related" and "Includes" works fine, it's just the Exact matches that have the issue:

Yes they are listed in the Sapphire Marketplace but not all tlds are accepted in auctions.

Pretty much all my one-word .CC domains are Sapphire, yet .CC isn’t supported in auctions. 😅

I raised this with Atom before (via their support chat) and was told it would be passed on to the relevant team.

I think only a handful of Sapphire-supported TLDs are actually auction-eligible, but could never really find an official list …

So… I am following this one with interest.

This is a common problem. Even some of my premium names have had this "issue"

Plus is not worth it at all IMO.

I really appreciate Atom introducing bundles, but the following are perplexing me. I hope someone can help.

1. So I have numerous domain names with the same term, in different extensions.
Am I being blind, or is there no way to turn off Atom bundles for a domain name?

2. If Atom does not detect a bundle, but there is an obvious one, is there a way to create my own? For example while it recognizes some bundles with TermAI.com and Term.AI, or similarly with .si, with some other extensions it does not.

Thanks for any help. @Atom.com

@Future Sensors and @NameGroove were pivotal to the development of that product. They'll know for sure!...

Yeah, right now is actually a really good time to be catching those looking to transfer away from Unstoppable or to a lesser degree, Spaceship (as much as I like them, the lack of Afternic fast transfer does hurt a bit). The bulk of their promos were this time last year so many people are looking for a new home for a lot of their domains, especially after a lot of recent developments at UD.

The wise choice might be to have a solid, cheap transfer in to Atom for a while longer yet.

The bidding field on the auction page is not visible without scrolling down the page

In all other marketplaces it is visible, placed in the center area

The domain name is still visible in your screenshot.

Yes, I realized, but I was lazy to edit it. Thanks

I know what you mean but just to avoid confusions my post was about the bid input field not visible without scrolling

Bundles is really a great addition that I really appreciate. I've setup a few bundles and it looks great through the ordinary flow.

However, they don't display properly on WLM-sites.
@Atom.com Is there a timeline for this? (bundles on WLM)

Hi @Atom.com , Just received a strange email regarding one of my premium names. The email doesnt make sense at all. I actually discounted the domain with $660 which I believe trigger the "price increase email". Perhaps you could investigate this, it might not be an isolated incident.
