Hi,

How do I change the username in Afternic?

Thanks.

Can I change my username?

Yes, you can. You must email Customer Service ([email protected]) from the email address you used to set up your account. Please include your current username as well as the new username you wish to use.

a few months ago, I asked them the same thing and my request got denied

afternic is a mess .. I didn't even know that was on their FAQ page or else I'd have mentioned it to them

thanks for the headsup

Do Afternic still insist on showing a public page listing all the domains associated with a username if you know or guess someone's username?

Sedo used to do that, then they changed it so the username does NOT show a list of domains and if you want you can generate a unique and possiby private url to share a list of the domains you have listed on Sedo.

found the message I got from them:

..and at the same time their FAQ says otherwise.

I made a request again... let's see what happens this time.

Is there any chance that we can bypass Afternic parking? I mean can we land the domain at afternic sales landers.

this is tricky. You can use (domain is only an example):

https://www.afternic.com/forsale/FreeWebTools.biz to get the 'price request' page

or you can use this:
https://www.afternic.com/domain/FreeWebTools.biz to get the actual price and 'buy now' button

be careful though, the second url does not always work.. especially if domain is under review
the first url works 100%

Thanks @Hypersot
So we should forward the domains from other registrars to those link.
My problem is I have around 800 domains. Should i manually forward each and every domain??

is there any way we could bulkforward??

depending upon where you do the forward from, they might provide bulk tools

for example,
I use ParkingCrew and they have mass sale redirection so it's easy
I think the same feature is available to both voodoo and bodis (haven't checked but I'm positive)

edit: it just occurred to me that you probably ask for 'direct' navigation to the sale page (ie. with no parking content).

When I want to do that I use above.com's nameservers where they have a pure 'redirection' that I can use en mass no matter who I have the domain registered with.

For bulk forwarding:
Bodis is giving sales lander.
http://www.afternic.com/domain/{DOMAIN_NAME}

Namesilo
http://www.afternic.com/domain/%%domain%%

Namecheap, i am speaking to customer care.

Godaddy??

Moniker??

Any thoughts...

I edited my post 'cause I expected you'd ask that

If you have no problem using above.com, I have found it to be the most convenient method for managing my domains.

All my domains use above.com's nameservers and then all I have to do is decide where I want them redirected, ie. parking, sales page, above.com's own sale's page, etc.

That way I can switch from one marketplace URL to another in a few seconds.

Bodis is also doing same, Parking crew as you said.

Bodis, parking crew, Above which one is most reliable?

I don't know about bodis but I don't think PC have a 'direct' navigation to the sales page.. they only provide a link on top of the parked page where the user can click and go to your sales page

what do you mean by 'reliable'? . I had no issues with any of the above companies so far.

Means, We cant monitor all the time whether they were forwading or not.

oh, I don't think you should worry. I have made random visits on my domains and they always show up properly.
There are the occasional downtimes which last for a short time but that's to be expected for everything on the net and they're also quite rare.

BTW what does "in review" mean ?

 

[DNGear]

Afternic reviewing your domain. You should email them to process the review ASAP. Otherwise it should be in review for weeks
