How does Bido work.

I have submitted a 3 char. domain for sale with a low reserve of 80$ or so and it hasn't received any votes to go thru auction.

Am I missing something ? Do I need to do something or just wait ?

You have 3 credits use it to accelerate it to auction. If the 3character domain is in any extension other than a com then it is unlikely to attract any interest.

it's a dot com, that's why I thought it was weird

Have you confirmed the name (you would have been sent an email) and added a description :)

yeah I think I did confirm ownership.


Maybe it's just the olympics/Valentine's day combined effect on my fellow domainers

neither are showing. Maybe you should go to *my bido* and click on my domains, submitted domains to see if they need any further set up action by yourself

Submitted a support ticket but I think I'll end up selling on another platform.

Thanks for the help AR, Mellow,

Support IMO is fab so I am sure you will get an answer asap.. It's up to you where you sell but dont dismiss them ;)

For future reference

The reason the domain was not available for voting was because I had not agree to the Bido agreement (at bido.com/SellingPreferences ). That's probably because I initially joined Bido to buy domains and didn't check the box.

-------------------------------------

You're right Mellow, now that everything's working I'll give Bido a try.

Thanks

So how did Bido work out for you?

I'm about to test them out right now. I submitted quicksniper.com (name for "auction sniping" service) and it god voted to auction within a few minutes. We'll see how it goes. Live auction starts 2/22/2010. Speaking of auctions, which thread is it ok to promote these things in here? :| Thanks!

I stumbled upon this thread i really need help guy wth the concept of bido credits. I listed my domain lingerieoasis.com,it has been verified but i dont want to wait for voting time.I will like to send it to auction ASAP. Now i see bido credit 1=$8.88 dollars. Does it mean i need to pay this amount to go aution straight or what?

How are they still even going? I remember when I first started using them and having some success but then they just started to fall off. Taking a look at their Sales Archive - http://bido.com/SalesArchive

Just have 2 sales listed for the month. In the past, they also listed Sales Amount, then did away with that. The 2 sales listed - $39 and $1, total $40 for the month. That's the sale amount, not their cut.

I have no idea how they're making money nowadays and staying afloat.
