Efty is here: Great software helping domainers make more money.

[Doron Vermaat]

​

When I started domaining 2 years ago it didn't took long before I realized I got disorganized. With a growing portfolio of so many domains at different registrars, listed at multiple marketplaces and parking companies, things began to slip through the cracks.​

I lost the overview, often forgetting to add or remove domains from marketplaces and in some cases even forgot to renew valuable domains. I needed a tool to help me manage my portfolio and to give me clear insight in my performance as a domainer so I reached out to long term friend and software genius @lionel_efty and we decided to build Efty.

Here’s why you are going to love domaining with Efty: ​

Please add Forums and/or namePros, DN Forum etc in Marketplace Sold.

@Jen-Sin noted. I will report back here once done. Thanks for the other great suggestions too. We're making notes of all of them and prioritize accordingly!

I am not a subscriber yet... but I think a landing page needs to say with huge letters on the very top on the page, even above the domain name: "This domain is for sale" . This label must dominate the design of the page. Otherwise, a person who is not in IT / domaining will assume that the name is taken and will not read further.

Done.

@dv82 Doron,

Is the table of Sold Domains, can we have Sold date, Marketplace Sold columns and the ability to sort names by these fields?

Also it will be great if we can mass edit all other fields, like Efty Sale Price, Marketplace Sold, Sold Date, Commission etc etc.

Thank you.

Hey @dv82

One more thing. It would be great if we can have an 'about us' page.

 

[JimJammy]

Any ETA on the new landing pages Doron? With NameSilos new 7.5% marketplace the two of you together is going shake up this industry for sellers!

Thanks for your hard work.

 

[Doron Vermaat]

@Jen-Sin & @sumosan we will look into these suggestions for sure! Please keep them coming as we read and consider all of them for future updates.

@JimJammy we are working on this right now and the next big update will be all about landing pages. We are aiming to get this live for all users before the end of this year.

Hey @dv82

an optional FAQ page would be nice too.

 

[Jen-Sin]

@dv82, allow all data stored in the system to be exportable. Currently, only limited data can be exported.

Implement tags or labels or folders or groups so we can better manage and sort our portfolio.

Thanks! :D

 

[Jen-Sin]

@dv82, can you please explain how exactly investment amount, revenue, sales costs and profit are calculated in the Cockpit?

I also like to ask how the annual renewal cost is calculated and added to the cost every year and when etc.

Thank you very much!

 

[sumosan]

@dv82 Google analytics integration would be very useful. I think it is a must have.

Thank you very much!

• Annual renewal: The renewal fee for all domains in development or portfolio combined. This is a static number and won't change after renewing a domain. It's just to inform you with the total value of annual renewals.
  
• Investment: Purchase price for all domains + Paid renewal fees to date, based on annual renewal fees entered for each domain + fees paid for private whois
  
• Sales costs: sum of all escrow fees, broker fees and commissions as entered for all sold domains
• Profit: sale price and parking revenues minus all costs (renewal, commissions etc)

It is on our list. Not sure when we get to this as all development resources are currently focused on the revamped landing page roll-out.

Thanks @dv82.

I'm confused how the paid renewal fees to date is calculated in the investment cost, with respect to purchase date etc.

For example, say I bought a domain for $100, I key in $100 for purchase price, and $10 for renewal price, if I'm not wrong, it will show as $110 as my investment cost.

How about domains bought with few years left to expire?

And in the situation where I have differing renewal costs every year (due to promotions, transfers, coupons etc), the calculations may be off as well.

And for domains we hand regged, how do we key in the purchase cost and annual renewal fee?

Kindly advise.

Many thanks! =)

I hope you can fix the whois glitch because even when I perform the tedious task of manually clicking the update button for all of my domains at their previous expiration dates, your system still refuses to update some of them.

It seems your issue is related specifically to a registrar (DirectNic) which is out of our control. If you have an issue with the Whois info for domains anywhere else please email us and we will look into this.

 

[JimJammy]

The pages seem to be getting slower and slower to load. Are there plans in the future to work on this?

Can you specify which pages?

 

[Nerevar]

1. Whois info is sometimes innacurate, and expiration info is quite often innacurate.
2. Is it possible to mass-set nameservers for my domains that would point to Efty landing pages? Forwarding hundreds of domains, one by one, is very tedious.
3. Perhaps you could bring the lifetime subscription back on winter holidays, for those who missed it? Please!
