thanks @Rob Monster for your detailed answer
but my question was a little differently
do you have an example to be shown to the domainers community
where those efforts put into existence by using your great backend system
made the domain actually show up
on the first page results of google for the best keyword?
Frank, I think the key for great SEO is still going to be adding the content on the site. We provide the free tools that allow the domains to be content-rich below the fold. What did we do from our side?
- We made them really fast
- We added a unique SSL certificate with 4096-bit encryption
- We apply best practices for SEO and continue to refine them
What can the domain owner do?
- Add content
- Promote their listings while generating backlinks
- Amplify their listing in social media
Other ideas?
We built the toolbox, and keep the tools in great condition, but others have to be craftsmen. Fair?
Frank, I have not really studied it yet, but I do understand a bit about SEO and quite a bit about content management systems. Have you ever used this tool?

I think we can automate and/or integrate the process of allowing a user to look up the strategic keywords for a particular domain and streamline the process for adding SEO-worthy content.
You are perhaps more of an SEO expert than me. Got any advice?
Numbers are for brokered sales only.
I am curious what the number for non brokered sales is. As Uniregistry is used by professionals and those have no commission, it must be substantial.
I also wonder what the afternic number is.
And if afternic beats Uni..
50M brokered sales only is already a lot..
Uniregistry Brokerage Boasts Impressive 2016-2018 Sales

https://domainnamewire.com/2019/06/10/uniregistry-releases-domain-data-50-million-sales-last-year/
2018
To sell 5,445 domains, the company made 383,104 phone calls and sent nearly 22 million emails. That’s an average of 70 calls and 4,000 emails per domain sold!
- 5,445 total domains
- 404 one-word domains
- 2,363 two-word domains
- 423 three-word domains
- 538 one-to-four character domains
- 1,799 other domains
Uniregistry’s biggest sale in 2018 was a two-word domain that sold for over $1 million. 58 domains sold for at least $100,000. One of those was a .net and another was a .co.uk. The others were .com.
The median sales price for 2018 was $3,500. This is higher than other marketplaces such as GoDaddy/Afternic and Sedo, likely because Uniregistry focuses on brokered transactions and doesn’t have a syndicated buy-now listing platform.
Maybe.uniregistry brokers to me where the most useless of all
I also wondered if there was a way to add additional trackers for potential trackers for FB ads, Twitter retargeting, etc. From your personal experiences in selling domains, have you used any platforms for retargeting visitors that have resulted in sales for a domain or do you believe that it would be unnecessary?
The Epik SSL lander has improved...the new click box options before launching the parking page are awesome! THANK YOU!
Having a clear and to the point landing page is essential...now, if you would allow us to remove the 'Epik' in the top left corner with a click box or at least move it permanently to the bottom right/left corner with the other 'tags' it would make the page super clean...then first thing a visitor would see would be the domain name.
edit/add: By moving the 'epik' to the bottom it will allow the page to move up...this will allow the 'pitch' area below the name to be seen in full without scrolling when using a desktop.
Sure, we could do that -- we showed the Epik logo on the left to balance the page vis-a-vis the TrustRatings seal on the right. We are going to make it so that you can hide those logos altogether.
I remember my first year domaining. when I want to check my uniregistry's Lander working or not, I try to bid my own domains. 3 month later, and maybe every month after that always got emails from uniregistry's broker. I think,it's very annoying for anyone else,but for me at that time, it's a good (free) lessons about how to sell your names.To sell 5,445 domains, the company made 383,104 phone calls and sent nearly 22 million emails.

Cool new feature to report.
When you get an inquiry, you get the full contact details of the inquirer. That is not new. However, now you also get a one click lookup to see the reverse lookup of the IP address that visited your page.
Example:
https://whois.epik.com/5.254.19.101
And next I have asked the engineers to show the reverse lookup of the other domains that this IP address has checked in the last 30 days.
I believe that will be a very useful indicator of whether your prospect is sophisticated, i.e. checks many domains or just a few.
How do you like that?
Awesome! How do you check that? I've had close to 9,000 visits and 35 inquiries for Cola in the short time I've had it at Epik. Would be great to see some data around these!

Quick comment on lander commission structure.
So, if you use Epik landers, we give you all the contact details of the inquiries. Obviously this means that you can sell your domains without a commission since we give you the direct contact info. Some people do that and they are allowed to do so. Unlike almost everyone else, we don't force you to clear through Epik.
That said, here a few a reasons why you might want to clear through Epik anyway:
1. We make it convenient -- If you simply accept an offer, we do the rest. The buyer has many payment options including cryptos.
2. We will help you negotiate with your prospect and close a deal, possibly at a price much higher than you might secure on your own, in part because we often know more about your prospect based on their overall customer profile.
3. We do fraud mitigation. If you clear through Epik, the buyer goes through our fraud mitigation filters. They are not perfect, but they are getting mighty good.
4. Your commissions fund service and support. The fact is that we do invest aggressively back into making Epik great. Think of it like a tip for providing a worthy product that helps you sell better.
Thanks for your support. More improvements on the way -- notably the full CRM and escrow dashboard.
