Stable $0.3x RPM this month...

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Looks that Google is already a semi-dead company in terms of traffic monetization.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Stable $0.3x RPM this month...

10 times higher at ParkingCrew this October...

10 times higher at ParkingCrew this October...

Hi

in contrast, rpm/ ctr/ and epc has increased at bodis, while dropping at PC for me

but I guess that's why it's good to relocate some names, every once in a while

imo...

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

For me RPM at PC is significantly better whole this year... and it is very stable, just minor changes from month to month...

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

My US traffic at Bodis is many times higher than any other country... and US CTR is ~0%.
I guess, some US bots are not banned by Bodis... that's why so abnormal stats.

does Bodis payout in BTC?

does Bodis payout in BTC?

Yes.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Please add the option to hide "Minimum Offer" value, it is displayed when it is set.
Or don't show it by default.
Thanks.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

And just plain contact form is needed... Just to contact the domain owner.
Without Offer field and without mentions that the domain is for sale.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

And please update DAN URL to dan.com/buy-domain/example.tld?redirected=true
It loads the primary sales lander, without bolded part - their internal lander will be shown.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

It was asked in August - but still no any changes...

When MX records will be removed by default
OR
will be provided opt-out in Bodis settings to completely disable this email monetization?

All set. Appreciate the feedback.

As far as MX disable setting, it will come, and it's definitely on our list, just not the highest priority. A lot of features before that. Right now we're preparing a pretty sizeable update that we have to get through first.

In meantime, you may get around MX settings by setting domains via CNAME or IP record. That's my current recommendation until we can get that done. Thanks

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

CNAME/IP is suitable/easy way only for few domains.
I have ~850 domains at Bodis... they are also under many registrars.

Why email monetization was enabled at all WITHOUT permission of your customers???
And as previously was discussed - it is absent even in your Terms, so nobody agreed on it.

@Jurgen Wolf

We don't read or reply to emails.

In our opinion, it's the job of the domain monetization platform, to extract the most revenues from your domains as long as it is in a clean method that does not involve malvertising or any illicit practice.

As mentioned previously, you can change DNS away from NS which would move your names away from having the MX record set. We'll introduce a way to seggregate it in reporting and an on/off option, it's on the todo list.

Right now, as a result of this form of monetization, we're able to provide higher revenues to all customers across the board.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

I don't see any higher revenues...
They are the same on average as before.

I already had 13 domains blocked by Afilias.
12 at ParkingCrew and 1 at Bodis for unknown reasons... just registered them, parked and got blocked within days/weeks.

I want to completely exclude various high-risk scenarios like BAD IP addresses or BAD hosts in those MX records.
Because then it ends with serverHold, regardless of what you actually do on your platform.

 

[matt_bodis]

@Jurgen Wolf we certainly are able to pay higher overall as a result of overall higher revenues. At the end of the day, we're competing against other companies for business.

As far as domains blocked on PC/Bodis, can you message me the list?

MX seems unlikely as you seem to have it turned off on PC I am guessing, and you have 12:1 blocked at PC with it turned off.

Who/what are they blocked by? Message me the domains and I will take a look.

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

Yes, I turned it OFF.
But I'm not the only one user at PC.
Their IPs could be blacklisted even regardless of my settings there.

 

[matt_bodis]

If you can send me list of domains and where/who they are blocked by, we can start to investigate.

It's possible (and likely), it has nothing to do with MX records.

But anyway, we will offer the option. It just hasn't been a priority.
