question Do Uniques on Sedo serve as an interest indicator?

[Bananot]

I listed 30 domains on Sedo for sale yesterday. Sedo shows they have around 1200 uniques (in total):
- United States 52.26 %
- Canada (en) 10.19 %
- Russia 7.07 %
- France 5.3 %
- Germany 3.7 %
- Great Britain 3.54 %
- Netherlands 2.36 %
-Singapore (mg) 2.19 %
-Sweden 1.94 %
-Other 11.45 %

Is that number good? Does it relate to sale probability? Are those people searching the domain on their browsers or clicking on it on Sedo?

If you wait for a sale on Sedo, you might pass away first..

These are unique visits of the domain, not marketplace searches or anything like that, right? It just means someone entered the site by typing it in or by a link somewhere, it's impossible to tell if they were interested in purchasing, but most likely not.

Lots of bots.

Supposedly sedo filters these out, but not 100% for sure.

I thought Sedo was the best option for sales? Then tell me the best option.

Hi. Prior to parking my domains at Sedo, I just had them listed there for sale but parked at a WLM that I was monitoring Google analytics on. The data provided by sedo is nothing like the data analytics was providing. I trust Google’s numbers more.

Hi

are you using sedo ppc pages with ads or sales landers with no ads?

if ppc pages, then unique numbers are good when visitors click on ad links.
if using sales landers, then only offers to buy have real meaning, because it only takes 1 visitor to buy the name, so that's why not much weight is given to volume.

if your names are generic in nature and you are getting a lot of visits to sales lander, then i'd advise switching to ppc pages in effort to monetize the name. you can still accept offers or have a BIN price link/banner or those pages.

imo...

Hi

all depends on the actual names you have.
as i've been having sales on sedo for two decades.

Hi

there is no best option.
i rarely advise this, but just look at the sales reports and you'll see which platforms the sales take place on.

one person's success or lack of on a platform, does not mean you'll have same experience and vice versa.
each name is unique and so is each experience.

imo...

I trust Google’s numbers more.

Hi

though google might be the source of advertiser feeds, they don't have a marketplace for you to list your names for sale or earn ppc revenue from them.

ask yourself this:
do you trust that google is paying out the most money they could pay, for clicks on those ads or do you think they are holding back?

I'm using sales landers with no ads. Don't you think those ads may be less appealing to potential buyers? How many uniques or clicks are needed to reach the $20 minimum payment?

Hi

all of our names at sedo have ads on them and potential buyers don't have issue with them.
buyers only need a way to make an offer or to purchase at BIN.
see > nev.org

as for reaching minimum payout, it depends on whether you get clicks on your names and how much each click pays.

forget ads. in fact forget sedo. use namepros parking. it's free. then do add lead on dan.com u pay 5perceny.. sedo is 15 or more. big difference.

do not park anywhere for ads. today it doesnt pay. use sedo only to list on their market not for lander. sedo sales are rare but for sure they happen

u welcome

My names are fine, mate, tons of enquiries on AN and good sales. Sedo is a graveyard.. ZERO traction. Are you Sedo affiliate by the way, you have been supporting them steadily, if I'm not mistaken..

Hi

originally, i was sedopro member and at one time, had quite a few signups under me.
so i earned $ when they earned $
that level is extinct now but comparatively, i have done well there.
and when a question is raised that i have knowledge of, then i might share my experience with the platform.

it's just that some of the comments are complete nonsense,
so yeah, i'll speak up to dispute it because those are either not true or misleading statements.

the OP asked specific questions about sedo and unique visitors and when i respond, i try to give honest and helpful answers.
hey, i use afternic too, but they didn't ask about that platform.

imo...

Very interesting to see what the old timers have to say about sedo and afternic. Very interesting because I have sold more names directly over the years than on either platform. I really don't know or care why. In some ways I wish it wasn't that way since I figure I would have sold more names over the years. Happy domaining!
