DNPages.com - Free (Beta) Landing Page Service

[S-B]

This year, I've decided to make a few changes to my business. Have you decided to do the same? I'd bet the answer is yes. We are always adapting to ensure our businesses are running as effeciently as possible. One of the changes I'm making this year is to sell less and make more. How do I plan on doing that? Well, I will sell to the mythical enduser. Will I perform outbound? Nope. I will rely on inbound leads. Why? Ask any broke; the big money comes from inbound.

Today, I'm inviting you to join me in a quest to earn more while working less.

How do I plan on doing this? I will be utilizing a system my team has been developing over the past couple of months.

What have we created? A unique landing page backend that supports your business, for free.

We offer the ability to create your own templates by uploading your own images, html, and css or customize one of the templates we offer. We have 10 templates with 5 variations designed to deliver you more leads.

We've built custom backend that supports cusotmization on a per domain basis. In other words, you can craft custom copy for every single one of your domains. ​

We also deliver analytics you can trust. ​

So what now?

Now you can ask questions, make suggestions, or even request an invite.

Stop trolling. You can't be this ignorant in real life.

To me this is all part of real life... must just not be in your fantasyland?

Ok, I tried to leave this alone, but forgive me for washing this dirty fabric you've thrown on the internet.

1) GA = data not forms.

2) The forms (or inquiries) are ALL forwarded to me. I wondered why he didn't allow us to communicate fully through his interface. Even though, I wouldn't have a problem with him seeing my negotiations, he doesn't even have this ability. If anything, there's a minor bug of redirected emails if you mistakenly try doing so.

3) If you want to know more, he allows any type of customizations you desire, including your OWN GA tracker. This is Pre-Beta ♥

Stop engaging me if you want me to stop trolling. mmmkay.

Back to talk about the service.

I noticed a bug when adding a BIN price with a comma, the system doesn't take the save changes nor does it notify you the change wasn't accepted.

I added a BIN of $20,000 to Kauaiian (Priced high because I really don't want to sell it - but could use $20k)
The system did not accept the comma and reverted back to the default $1000 without notifying me. I had 4 escrow request in a 45 minute span at $1,000.

Thanks!

Side note, I have to clarify something I noted above. The base service is free. There will be a small commission on BIN sales. Probably 5% or 7.5% of the final sale (including Escrow.com's cut). The more domains we get on platform the lower I can drop the commission.

Just wanted to remind people / clarify that the BIN has a 7.5% commission.

Just started putting some domains up last night and I am quite impressed.

Only one complaint that I see is that when I goto one of my sites and then hit refresh, it will count as another visitor. Is it possible to have only 1 unique per IP say every 24 hours?

Thanks,

Eldred

I appreciate it!

We will be working on improving the "analytics" over the next couple of weeks.

If there's anything else you notice, feel free to let me know.

I'm sure this will fill everyone with a great deal of confidence about your business offering.

Well to be honest it sure makes me feel better. Just knowing that he's not wasting time with trolls and worthless issues, makes me have more faith in his commitment.

I have been on DNPages for about a month now. As others have said, my number of leads has gone way up. Unfortunately, they haven't been high quality, but I can't fault Shane for that. Also, I have found he openly receives negative and positive feedback very well. Each issue I have had has gotten a timely response and the questions asked indicated that he really wanted to understand and address them.

I'm working on ways to increase the quality of leads. Unfortunatley, it' difficult to ascertain what leads are good and which leads are simply lazy lol.

After using dnpages.com for just about a week, it's been going well for me. I have not had any sales yet but I've had 5 inquires on 3 different names. The templates are simple (I guess it's the old KISS rule) but effective!

Shane, are there any upcoming features in the works?

Glad everything is going well!

I have about 5 fixes and 10 updates that should be finished this week. They are going live as they're developed so keep your eyes open. :D

Update:

Just fired my dev.

Upgrading to a large office and am taking on employees.

 

[S-B]

Fixed.

 

[cocaseco]

I'll be sure to report the stats next month when I being an enduser outreach campaign.

Any update on this? I've been on a month or so and the number of inquiries is definitely improved. But the quality is disappointing. That's not the systems fault as you can't help stupid people who think they are signing up for something. But I would like to hear some success stories of how you have gotten around this, or if you even have the same problem of poor lead quality?

I'm experiencing a bit of the same.

I had one domain fail in escrow. I have a feeling it was somebody from here messing with me as I had posted the domain at some point.

I'm in negotiations with a few leads right now. A lot of inquiries have been people thinking they are signing up for something or any other random thing. The adult domain leads are pretty funny.

I just swicthed my default template to call only, and in the last two days I've had 10 inquiries. A lot of them are from other countries with phone numbers different than the generic (###) ###-####. I might use Google Voice or something so I can start calling overseas depending on how the phone calls go with the US based phone numbers.

Thanks, most of my call leads are International as well.

I know it's not the most professional way of going about things, but I just texted a response to a US inquiry.

Hi - Did you request a phone call in reference to the domain ###.mobi?

Two seconds later response: Yes, I did.

I responded asking when they'd like to schedule a call hoping they say a later date.

Later date because I'm sick, and my head feels like a bowling pin. Not yet as bad as a bowling ball. It sucks how far behind you can get when you take time off from domaining. This is me now:

I know it's not the most professional way of going about things, but I just texted a response to a US inquiry.

Maybe not the worst idea?

Through text messages, I was able to determine buyer wasn't serious after talking prices.

Now I know if they're interested later, they know the price range and that I hold other related domains.

And vice versa, I barely wasted any time formulating an email or a call. Texting via GoogleVoice online is painless. I just question if this system of vetting endusers lack in quality and/or class.

 

[cocaseco]

i think that's ok. I hadn't thought about it, but considering language and time differences, is a valid option.

Hello,

Please don't take that as a personal attack but I find it unfortunate that some incisive questions were dismissed as trolls. Okay, customers are not always nice but they are your customers. Just because people are asking questions, doesn't mean they question your integrity. But skirting questions is what makes people suspicious.
I am under the impression that you are looking for beta testers. Which is completely legitimate. Then your service should be advertised as such. You posted this:

The base service is free. There will be a small commission on BIN sales. Probably 5% or 7.5% of the final sale (including Escrow.com's cut). The more domains we get on platform the lower I can drop the commission.

There isn't a firm price structure in place yet. Does that mean you are not charging yet for sales made through your platform, but intend to do so later ? I guess you do, a business service doesn't have to be free. Unless of course, it's in beta testing stage, or you know what they say: when it's free you are the product
Is there a privacy policy of some sort ? T&C ?

Everybody can set up a lander page, and add a buy now button, also the escrow.com type.
If you are not a good designer, you can just outsource the design of the layouts. What isn't very clear to me is what makes your service unique and different than what already exists on the market ?
For instance, I don't use Efty but isn't it one of the features they propose ?
