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

I wish to experience about brandbucket from my fellow members


Thanks

In following thread https://www.namepros.com/blog/detec...ry-com-frank-schilling-buys-ehiv-com.1005411/ mentioned "BrandBucket sold Sproutsy.com, Slingly.com and Dwift.com among many others."
But I don't see those sales in Dnbolt.

They were in there earlier this year. (@Dnbolt correct me if I'm wrong)

DNBolt only holds the last month of sales.

Maybe the train was missed? @Grilled is correct

sproutsy/com - $5,450 (margot)
slingly/com - $1,950 (margot)
dwift/com - $2,695 (margot)

She was very happy with her sales and shared it with few special people.

BB you have such a rigged platform that favors your own people and not the common sellers. How low can you guys go? I just tried to select the category "Travel" and these are the names that got auto populated. Now for everyone, just go ahead and see who holds the majority of those names.

The reason there is an option to categorize the domains is to only show names that are related to a specific category. But what is happening in here is totally unrelated domains mostly populated by BB owners, ambassadors.

I would be seriously interested to know what the owners or ambassadors have to say about this. This just doesn't feel right to me. This BB experience thread should be renamed as BB scandals... lol..

That means it seems unfair right? I am building my BB portfolio with premium domain names only but this picture makes me unhappy, keep going on or not?

 

[Haykay2005]

May be BB should remove the exclusive right. With that, I have the the right to sell names elsewhere. I recently sold namerific approved and published name outside namerific. Why would my names be tied down to a market where sales is a caucus thing?

I'm not sure how big your portfolio is and I don't encourage you to keep or remove your portfolio. I think people have to decide for themselves what suits best for them. But, its obvious the platform is biased...

I'm disappointed by how they are showing domains in that category. I have 4 domains that start with the keyword "travel" listed at BB (so they are far more contextually relevant to the category than most of the stuff you see on the first few pages), so I thought I would surely have pretty good placement on the first few pages for that category. However, my domains are nowhere to be seen.

In fact, I looked through the first 8 pages (before I gave up looking further), and on those 8 pages, there are only 4 domains that start with the keyword "travel" and all of them are owned by Michael Krell - There are 0 domains owned by other sellers that start with the keyword "travel" on those 8 pages, so my travel+keyword domains are probably sitting on page 18, 44, 50 etc. That doesn't make any sense, as the category is named "travel" and domains containing this keyword are highly relevant - And why would they only show one persons domains containing that keyword on the first 8 pages? I don't know how their category display "algorithm" works, but it clearly needs a lot more work, because their current solution is not satisfactory.

Let's think about solutions and focus less on complaints. BB takes aggressive advantage from all it's users to supercharge itself so how can we take back the advantage without necessarily listing any/more domain(s)?

Anyone get the point I am trying to make? If you do then let's drink some tea and discuss.

 

[Dnbolt]

Also if your not happy with current Managing Director of BB then it could be a good idea to sign a petition for impeachment in order to make Brandbucket Great Again.

People are already leaving the platform. It's not just bottles, its balls... Its better to be a lone wolf rather than mindless sheeps following the herd.

It seems lucky I see 2 my domains in the 1st page of "Premium Names"

That's expected.

Premium names = premium commissions.

Premium names = premium commissions.

Thank you but we have to spend a lot of money to acquire premium names, not like other with reg. fee. And one more thing, I am expecting the 1st sale transaction from BB

Several months ago when I posted on this thread that I was looking forward to my first sale on BB the knockers were trying to convince me that I was wasting my time and money and that I was living in hope. I have since made 4 BB sales in a very short time. When I got my first sale late last year, my next 3 came in quick succession. Can you imagine if I listened to the knockers? I would now be $10K worse off.

Same!

My signature shows my last years figure, and this year, I've paid my mortgage off (or should I say BB has paid my mortgage off!) so I'm looking forward to doing my next 'annual review of my experience with BB'.

I know it isn't for everyone. What I don't understand is why so many NON-BB members spend most of their time stalking and bad mouthing successful BB members. It's quite sad really.

 

[Justin Matmor]

'stalking'...

Excellent.

I can understand why some successful BB members no longer advertise/have changed their BB username.

BB username? Why would they change? Could you please elaborate? Is it because they might be subject to the search discussion? I dont think anyone should change their BB user name cause if someone for example is getting good placement of their names, whether they are BB staff, Ambassador, or people who are not any of those but like to defend BB then it is normal for that person to defend BB cause of the return he or she is getting.Why hide your public profile when there is nothing to hide right

I dont think stalking would be the right word here. If someone wants to know more certain thing then they will research and since everyone is entitles to their opinion then it is normal I guess.

They're trolling, just ignore them.

Nope, stalking is 100% the right word. When someone posts my name, personal details, domains I've bought and sold and what price for etc, that is stalking.

And Justin (I'm guessing) is talking about those members that felt they had to change their BB portfolio URLs and go to private whois, because they too were fed up with the stalking. Yes there are quite a few, no I will not name them.
