Hi @Joe Styler, hope you are well and glad to see you here,

Joe please let them pay attention to this. These are not comparable sales. It shows the domains that we (investors) buy at expired GD auctions. Moreover, in some cases, those domains that the buyers are looking for are shown there.
This is not good. This comparable data should not be shown and if necessary for a sale to happen, then a domain with similar price or 80-90% at should be shown.

Anyone else getting a weird color update in the Afternic dashboard? Looks like something a 2 year old put together.

Yup. The devs are learning CSS, give them a break!

Not yet for me. It is being rolled out slowly like Bulk Search to avoid breaking anything. I hear that I am tentatively scheduled for Bulk Search in 2027 and the color experiment in early 2029. Very excited!

I got my first web development job in '99 at 18 years old.

I would have been fired for pushing live any one of the numerous bugs that plague GD/AN.

It boggles the mind that a company this size can't figure this stuff out.

I don't qualify for the new color schemes benefit or any other innovative perks as I have opted out of Boost O_o

Introducing Afternic Vibrant Colors
Because your domains deserve the spotlight โ€” in neon!

In todayโ€™s ocean of sameness, looking fabulous is the name of the game. Afternic Vibrant Colors is our new "bedazzling" program designed to make your domains not just stand out โ€” but SHINE! Think glitter, sparkle, and everything extra on GoDaddy, ultimately blinding everyone into buying your domain names.

Weโ€™ve been experimenting with various shades of brilliance to give Afternic domains on GoDaddy a glow-up, and weโ€™re thrilled to announce that these technicolor experiments have delivered a bedazzling 10% increase in performance for portfolios willing to step up to the spotlight.*

So, buckle up! Vibrant Colors will become the new standard for Afternic listings starting September 4, 2024. This glamorous addition comes with a bonus 5% charge to our already fabulous commission. But donโ€™t worry, if youโ€™d rather your domains stay dull, you can opt out any time.


Why Vibrant Colors Works

We heard you loud and clear: you want your domains to not just appear, but SLAY on GoDaddy. Vibrant Colors is our answer.

Participating domains get:

  • Flashy appearances in GoDaddyโ€™s search results with a hint of sparkle
  • Shiny "Verified" badges to dazzle anyone searching for Fast Transfer domains
  • Bedazzled badges on your domain landers, because why not?
  • Targeted email marketing with emojis and confetti to give buyers that extra nudge toward FOMO
GoDaddy, the worldโ€™s biggest registrar and ultimate runway, invests heavily in showing off domains to buyers in style. Vibrant Colors lets you bask in that GoDaddy glory, flaunting your domains in front of a domain-buying audience already mesmerized by all things glitter.

Remember: Vibrant Colors isnโ€™t just an extra cost. Itโ€™s an investment in fabulousness and increased sales potential. In the fierce, cutthroat world of domain sales, Vibrant Colors struts your domains in front of an audience just dying to give you their money faster and with more style.

Paying for premium pizzazz isnโ€™t new in the online marketplace world. Sites like Amazon, Facebook, and Zillow are also on that glow-up train, offering sellers sponsored listings that scream, โ€œLook at me!โ€ Similarly, Vibrant Colors takes your domains from "meh" to "WOW" in the blink of a rhinestone-studded eye.


Next Steps

Weโ€™re still working on perfecting the glow-up during the month of August. Starting September 4, Afternic Vibrant Colors will automatically activate, adding instant glam to your portfolio.

If sequins and glitter arenโ€™t your thing, no problem! You can easily opt out at any time. Just sashay over to afternic.com/account/vibrantcolors to review your sparkle status. But if you choose to stay fabulous, your domains will continue basking in enhanced visibility across the GoDaddy platform, ensuring every potential buyer is wowed.

Good luck, and may your domains always dazzle! โœจ
