Oh my stars and garters.... :o Sweet!

Kudos Matt. Can't wait to see/hear more.

Excuse my spammage .....

Right now you cannot. I mentioned in our old thread that we (or I) ran out of time to put in all the bulk edit features that I wanted. That being said, it is on my to-do list. Not one of my priorities compared to the other things on the list, but it is definitely there.

If you upload an image, it is stored in an "Image Manager". THAT you can cross link, since you can select a past uploaded image on any domain name and crop any dimension you want.

I think it would be a nice feature and keep some of the traffic "in-house" as well.
I'm glad it's on the "to do" list.

PS speaking of gradients / colors - you can manage the colors of the layout on the fly and see it live from Bodis.com panel by moving a slider. So I gave everyone the option to modify layout colors via a Hue/Saturation slider similar to the one in Photoshop.

Are you serious ???? I'm asking facetiously of course. This is tooooo cool. I'm not sure I've ever seen this feature with any parking service I've used. ND has tons of color options but none like this.

Well it's my lunch break almost, so might as well spill out some more stuff about the layout.

Yep

You can see the layout LIVE from within the Bodis panel. No more "Show Preview" buttons or viewing the actual landing page to see the changes. You see the layout and manage it from the panel. You can drag and sort the navigation with a click of the mouse. You can even manage the content via the WYSIWGY editor. Full HTML control. You can add CSS, change styles, add flash video to your content, quicktime video, images, youtube videos, whatever you may or may not want. And if you don't know html - no problem. The WYSIWG can help you out with all of that as well for non-HTML people./quote]
Hold on .... I just fell out of my chair. What a time saving, hair pulling,
system resource using, pain in the keyboard that
will NOT be missed. Nice feature to add.

And when you add a domain name, you don't need keywords. We will automatically find you the most relevant keywords. For instance, if your domain name is "Namepros.com", we can figure out that Namepros relates to Domain Names and return you all relevant keywords.

And, on top of that, we can automatically figure out what category it belongs it, what sales category it belongs it, and the image that best fits it.

I tested keyword "Namepros". Automatically matches to our "Domain Name" category, just perfect.

I like to see if a parking service can do this. And as odd as it may sound it is exciting if they can.
I have the perfect name to test it with. I won't mention the "site" that
recognized RXXP[]COM for exactly what I intended it for (windows updates, fixes, etc)

Oh and yes - sales category. We have a full featured marketplace to compete with Sedo. Except that we have 6% commission instead of 10% and a minimum commission of $35. Oh, and on top of that, we figured out a way to lower the amount of fake bids - I guess that I will show later on.

This should be interesting ..... No, you didn't mention, it ........
The minimum commission structure should maintain a level of good quality names for sale.

This is just a few of many more features.

More ...... ? :tu:

Now it is time to get my gyro and continue working. :tu:

Enjoy ........ I'm off to crack a beer.
Injured leave at home and drinking too many beers.
Just because I can .....

PS
Someone re-size those pics ....

More ...... ? :tu:

Yes, many more. The biggest are the new ways of monetizing domain names that will put an end to PPC (IMO).

 

[Dr.Lee]

congratulations for your new version bodis!

95%+ of the time we can. If you have a domain that used to be a website, chances are we can do it. We can easily match typos as well. If you go out and register QWUFUFWEUF.com that has no absolute meaning, then we will resort it to a Portal since it won't match anything.


PS
I'll be back in about 6-8 hours to give an update. I have a lot of work!

Looks great Matt.... Very Nice Work. Reps added.

 

[packrat]

V2 is a parker's dream come true

the word contact is wrong on the white layout

 

[matt_bodis]

As mentioned, those images are first draft versions that weren't even coded yet. The actuals don't even have that footer.

Will you guys be opening bodis back up for registration at some point in the future?

Yes the second we launch our new Bodis the application process is going down, everyone is able to register, even the scammers. (No sarcasm there)

 

[DADomains]

Matt, you wrote that we will have full HTML control. Does this mean we can add our own visitor tracking code to the pages, e.g. StatCounter ?

If not, how much visitor stats will we get in 2.0 - country of origin, keywords searched, etc ?

Also how about being able to verify the pages via Google Webmaster? I am thinking the meta tag method might be possible, but not the HTML file upload method.

Any of the above would be GREAT for optimizing the pages.

 

[matt_bodis]

Everything will be allowed except javascript, which I am still playing around with and figuring out if it even makes sense to not allow it. The problem is, we don't want people to install malware software on the visitor computer via our landing pages. That can get us in trouble. So we may disable javascript at first from the HTML, but later on I'll figure out a way to block off only the dangerous javascript such as ActiveX objects, etc.

We also have certain terms such as: You can't put any contact information (since we already provide a marketplace).

You are also only able to edit the HTML in the content area. So you won't have access to the HTML of the meta tag area. You can put your own tracking code - yes.

when is the registration gonna be open?

Layout looks decent... I actually like it, but don't like the custom text on the layout. I'd rather there be a buffed up "nicer" version of the current simple layout (with only links). Excited as hell to see what happens... going to take a nap and see what happens when I wakeup!!

 

[onebyone]

nice ,i like the news,how can i get the account ?do you accept the new ACCOUNT ?

 

[DADomains]

... You can put your own tracking code - yes.

Fantastic! Looking forward to when everything will be in place.

 

[matt_bodis]

I've been working hard last 3 hours trying to port the automatic keyword system tool to production, but I've been running into a problem with the database connector on the production server. I am heading home to take a closer look at this.

Once we get that fixed and the rest ported to production, things should be a little more interesting. I'll update everyone again in a few hours. It doesn't really matter for us if we launch at 3 am or 3 pm, as a matter of fact, I rather launch after midnight. So I'll see how fast I can get around to fixing the technical problem and how much more time I'll need after that.

And I guess I'll hold off discussing some of our better features once we actually have the new website live. :gl:

 

[darkdrift]

I am really looking forward to registering!

I have seen some great things with v 1 but unfortunately I wasn't able to register in time
