I wish to experience about brandbucket from my fellow members


Thanks

Anyone else having problems validating domains? I use nameservers ns1, ns2 (BB.com). Set it last night, hours later, NS's updated (forwarding correctly) they're still not validating.

Works fine for me. Try URL forwarding.

Mine are certainly taking monger than normal, but it hasn't been long enough to call it a problem yet.

And another sale: * T * I * P * O * L * Y *

Very good start to year. 4 sales so far on BB.

how many names do you have there?

 

[Brandworthy]

840 names listed. I think 26 sales to date.

 

[Recons.Com]

if your trend continues, that would be around 45 sales for the year or around 5%. That is very good.

Brand bucket is a numbers game. In my experience if you want to sell more than just 1 or 2 names a year you need to have hundreds of names listed. The main issue many people face when trying to build up their portfolio on brand bucket is the rejections vs accepted names. Honestly I believe it is better to buy already listed or approved domains than to try to go out and register names hoping they will get accepted.

What is your acceptance rate?

For me personally it looks like it's much more worth it to reg and count on my acceptance rate. I think from around 250 names I submitted, I got +/- 50% approved at the end.

Until now I've just used the fact that I can achieve this acceptance rate to flip them quickly on here, but I just paid for 20 names today, I've never published a name before so I'll see how it goes..

By the way, if anyone is interested to build a bigger BB portfolio, I'm still accepting offers for my portfolio of 96 BB approved names.

@michaeljkrell the brandbucket.com/domain url doesn't work anymore for approved names (only for published). It used to point to a coming-soon-to-BB page, now it's just a 404 error. Is this normal, bug, or temporary issue?

WOOHOOO!! Finally got a name accepted. After 18 rejections I get a hand reg'd Zamoli.com accepted.

Congrats all on your sales, slow start for me still but looking forward to the year and 12 BB sales

I am having DNS Validation issues on 2 domains since last night... Never had a problem before. They always went through instantly in the past.

So seems maybe they are having an issue looking at other's comments?

I tried NS and forwarding. Neither seems to work.

Emailed support this morning.

 

[lolud]

I also had issue validating accepted domains.


I thought I was the only one affected.


Brand bucket. Please sort it out

 

[trelgor]

Yeah, having problems here too. First time ever.

Guess it's some kind of system problem. Now they've been informed I suppose it won't take to long to solve it. Hope BB keeps us updated.

Thanks for letting us know everyone. We are currently looking into the issue and hope to get it resolved shortly. For everyone that submitted helpdesk requests, Julia will be getting back to you.

Glad to see all the sales coming in. January was a banner month for us, and February has been equally as strong so far.

 

[12345]

Ok, the problem has been resolved. If anyone runs into the same problem in the future, please let us know. Thanks!

I'm still seeing this issue Michael.
