Matt,

I'd like to see the option to use the old plain lander. Some of my domains did very well with it. I too, have had a drop in revenue.

I am sorry to hear that. The old plain landers used to work great for mainly typos. In the future, there are plans to add in a variety of different landing pages.

Within next 1-2 weeks we will also add in 1-click, maybe that will help you out with the revenue. Also try enabling ZeroClick and see if your revenue improves.

Thanks Matt.

I've started adding affiliate links to my sites. I'm having trouble editing it once I've saved it. The html editor comes up blank. The sites are tightskirts.us and para-bellum.net.

I've also enabled zero click.

 

[r72gs]

Wow! I don't know if it's zero click or not but I moved one of my expired traffic names (about 100 uv/day) changed the links and enabled zero click. Made over $1 in two hours. Either I got the links exacly right or zero click is awesome.

Hi Matt

A couple of things you might want to tweak when you get time. Someone else mentioned this, and I also believe it needs an adjustment. When you change hue and saturation, the title sometimes gets very faint, almost unreadable.

I have been wondering about this also. Will there be a way to pick our own colors and backgrounds like in the old Bodis setup ?

All Bodis parked domains down?

Bodis Domains Down Now

Yes, it seems that way. All mine are showing blank.

 

[matt_bodis]

I apologize for the short downtime.

They should be up and running. Our central database crashed.

portal sites.

Is there a way to change a domain with links back to a portal site?

Thanks

I had been looking forward to the new bodis but honestly my revenue has almost come to a stand still now. I have quite a few domains and they were getting a lot better than other parking companies so I'm a little disapointed but maybe I need to edit each domain as I have not changed anything since the update? I guess I could start looking at adding affiliate & rss content like others are doing but If I'm going down that road I might as well create mini sites. Any ideas on what I could do to get back to how it used to be? I have been waiting to see how it goes as I have quite a few domains I wanted to add but now they are just sitting on Sedo making next to zero as well.

I had mentioned this before. The way it's set up makes it simple to change colours, problem is it does not give us the possibility to control the colours the way we want. It's very limiting. The old Bodis was better in this area.

Perhaps we could have the 2 options, the present v2 option as well as the v1 option, if that's possible. :blink:

Yeah, the coloring sliders are slick, but really can't be used because any changes to a more solid color wipes out the visibility of the main header.

Also, PLEASE make the header text length longer. It barely holds the domain name, and certainly keeps you from putting keywords where they are most SEO friendly - in the h1 tag. (I admit some of my domains are 2-3 words). That one thing would improve the search rankings and thus the revenue considerably.

Even the sub header (which uses h2 tags) is very short, so a more descriptive line is out of the question right now.

Matt if you correct those things, add a master keyword, and provide more click statistics I can hang with you while the revenue slowly rises.

Yes, this was and still is my biggest problem. The header/title text was definitely longer in version 1, because many of my titles were cut off about 2/3 to 3/4 of the way through when V2 came out. Even if it means making the text size smaller on the header, I would much rather have the ability to add a few extra words.

When registrations will be reactivated?

 

[matt_bodis]

I will have an answer to everyone's questions/PMs tonight.

We'll put a domain search feature on our list.

Well, my traffic has dropped to about 1/6th of what it was. Even with a couple names I have that are ranking number 1 in yahoo.com for fairly good keywords, I haven't had a visitor on them since the new filters. However, my RPM the past two days has been $39.xx and $54.xx, but this really isn't acurate because my sampling of visitors is too small to really know for sure if this is just an unusual spike.

I'm not sure I even remember - how often are the stats updated, and is it the same day or the next day, or ...?

I am almost positive that stats still have not been finalized since about the 24th of july. All the stats from that point on are estimates.... Because my numbers still haven't changed since that point, when Matt said these were just estimates until he finally got the numbers from Yahoo.

My Earnings report today has shown NO signs of life for the past 10 hours or so. Anyone else have a similar situation?

BTW Matt, up to what day are our earnings finalized?

I am fairly certain this could be due to the increased filtering on the domains. Traffic has dropped SUBSTANTIALLY. Or, it could be that one of the search engines has started de-indexing domains with bodis nameservers.

Also, I am about 99.99% certain none of the stats have been finalized since July. Since the "estimated" numbers for my domains have not changed since about the 24th or so.
