hello

I am new to BrandBucket. Before getting my hands on this

I wish to experience about brandbucket from my fellow members


Thanks

Worst logo ever today for MountainViper.com. Sorry if anyone on here did it, but I am really dissapointed when it is such a descriptive name. I'm considering pulling the listing, but I'll sleep on that decision.

I've had good luck with my logos on BB so far so good but I see what you mean on that one- send them a note and ask if they'll redo it.

 

[London555]

Not exactly. They can choose a $5 payment as soon as the logo is accepted, it's the designers choice.

Thank you for the post. Everyone should understand where that $10 goes that BrandBucket charges. Again,it's fine that they charge it-anyone can opt not to use them and go elsewhere.

 

[London555]

Logos are a minimum of $100 and the logo designer gets paid when (if) the domain sells, otherwise they don't get paid at all.

$10 is a listing fee. That does not go to the logo designers.

Not correct.

 

[hookbox]

Not correct.

If the logo designer actually does receive the $10 for the logo design then why isn't that listed on the "Become a Logo Designer" page? It only says they receive money when the logo sells and nothing else.

That $10 fee goes right into BrandBucket's pocket. This week so far they would have taken in an extra $6,730. So is their business model selling domains or taking listing fees?

$30,000 a month doing nothing but taking listing fees is a pretty profitable business to run.

Great post and hopefully their guy Michael here will answer that question. Remember Michael has already stated that they don't even cover the fixed costs. BB is a private company and no one has the right to their financials but anyone giving them 100 names has the right to know where their $1000 is going.

Michael, I was wondering if BB is up to perhaps list keywords of domains that have been selling alot..
not necessarily the full domain name (that would've been perfect though). Just certain keywords that are proving to be hot sellers. It would benefit both BB and the seller.

not really.. it would be ideal, but they are saying if you want your name to appear on our site, it's 10$.. that's where the money is going..

I do agree it would be nice to have a certain insight as to how many visits, which domain conferences perhaps they would have a presence and so-on

Lastly, please be on the lookout for a regular seller’s newsletter where we will go over a few past sales, popular keyword terms, and the most popular categories searched. We want to open up more communication channels with our sellers, and hopefully help you with your domain investing decisions.

Thanks Michael... Looking forward to the Newsletter!

Excuse me if its not a proper post for this thread, but please pass my "Thanks" to the designer who made the logo of my "Bromina". I really like it. Thanks!!!

So much horrible dn on BB. Charging $10/each is a smart move.

Yes, we will be doing a regular seller's newsletter where will discuss some things like top keyword searches, category queries, and some specific examples of a past sale or two...

I just had one domain processed amazingly quick.

Submitted on June 30th.
Approved on July 5th.
MY PART: Pay + Description/Price + Validation on July 5th.

And today, only one day later it was processed from "Pending BrandBucket Review" to "Pending Logo Design".

I have domains that have been in "Pending BrandBucket Review" for several days and are still there. But this one just past right through that step in less than a day.

I wonder why. Do they think it could sell fast? I have no idea.

But I only put 100$ to designer. So now it will be stucked there for months unless it gets prioritized again in some way.

By the way the domain is StartPronto.com

Take a look at this logo for CloseoutCars.com I think they did a great job-zero cost. Let me know what you think.

Take a look at the front page domains... anyone find it weird that 7 (SEVEN!) of the domains have the keyword "hatch". I wonder who regged these names, and why their entire portfolio is on the front page.

Yes I noticed it too this morning.

They belong to this profile : https://www.brandbucket.com/profile/lordman21
At least some of the "hatch". The 3rd largest inventory on BB.

Oh wow! ..ahah I didn't even see it was all logos ..ahah.

So just gotta say despite the quality of the names that are being accepted none of my last at least 20-30 names were ever listed anymore on the front page.. In the past sold one within 2 weeks when it was.. And another 1-2 months after showing up on first pages..

Gotta say it sort of sucks ...


Ironically with all this hatching going on.. Eventually the bird gets wings and flies off if you know what I'm implying

Names stay on the front page now for 3 days MAX. I've had names on the front page that were pushed off the next day. You really think that's the key to selling names?
