Thanks Mike, any joy in the last 24 hours?
Do you think GoDaddy should perhaps post a disclaimer that the system is not yet doing what the marketing messages say it does?
This is what the GoDaddy site says when you click on Premium Listings:
"Your domain names will appear in the "Premium Domain Names" section of our domain search page—potentially visible to over 1 million searches a day!"
That's obviously not true so far - unless there is any chance 1 million people a day would be searching for your exact domain name, in which case it would be utter stupidity to list it there in the first place - given the terms state that the "Upper limit is $5,000".
For those that don't feel like reading my previous posts regarding this, the issue in a nutshell is that for GoDaddy registered names that have been included in the Premium Listings it appears to be impossible to trigger an appearance in the "Premium Domain Names" section (which is what GoDaddy promises in exchange for their $4 listing fee and 20%-40% commision rate) regardless of how closely related the term being searched for might be.

PS: Mike, many thanks for the lightning fast response - you managed to do that while I was adding these links - that's what I call top level service!
