Hey, domain sellers! 👋

We have a special surprise for you.

Continuing from last year (and last week), we have some exciting updates to share with you about NamePros Parking Landers!

First, consider this:

You price your domain name at $2,500. For years, hundreds of interested buyers want to buy it, but the price is too high for them. They don't even try to contact you because they don't realize that the price is negotiable or may change. Years later, you decide to lower the price to $995. How many previously-interested buyers would buy it at this lowered price? You’d never know — until now!

With our new Buy Now options, you can finally contact those previous buyers to increase your sales opportunities. 💸

Here’s how:

Our landers have an option that requires buyers to confirm their email address before they can see the price. Once confirmed, the price is available to them and their email address is available to you. Simple and effective. Learn more on DNW.com.

Now, let’s talk new features!​

    • Escrow.com (Recommended): Starts an Escrow.com transaction for you and allows the buyer to pay immediately.
    • PayPal: Creates a PayPal transaction for the buyer to pay directly to your PayPal account.
    • Email: You and the buyer use email to choose a payment method (e.g., crypto), discuss lease-to-own (LTO) options, etc.
  • Location: Country, region (e.g., state or province), and locality (e.g., city, town, or village) of your inquirers to help you understand where they are located, the best time to contact them, etc.
  • Bulk Management: Set options on multiple domains at the same time: prices, payment methods, appearance, etc. using our website's interface or your favorite spreadsheet software (e.g., Google Sheets).
  • Exports: Download a list of your domains and their settings, customizations, and inquiries, including buyers’ email addresses, offers, etc. (CSV format.)

I don't think it is a phone issue. From Chrome on a Mac:
When I type nuggies.ninja the lander works fine.

However, when I click link in this message, I get "www.namepros.com refused to connect."
When I do a site search for the name on Google it shows up correctly:
NuggiesNinjaNPShow.jpg

However, when I click the link in that, it shows "www.namepros.com refused to connect."

A few other names I have tried show the same problem of appearing with site: command, but the link does not work.

He's using the utm_source parameter incorrectly. Instead of namepros.com, he should just use namepros.

The final correct URL must be:

Code:
<a href="https://nuggies.ninja/?utm_source=namepros">https://nuggies.ninja/?utm_source=namepros</a>

Very odd. I’m testing on an iPhone 16 Pro myself. I’ll definitely get to the bottom of this today. It may be a transient issue with how we’re caching data regionally to improve speed. Is one using Wi-Fi and the other cellular, or perhaps are they using different cell networks? They may be hitting different caches.

Thanks, that narrows it down a lot! I know exactly what’s happening.

We just deployed an update that caches landers at Cloudflare edges, meaning that landers should load much faster for people outside of North America. However, masked redirects are slightly different; really, we need to be caching two separate copies: one for masked redirects, and another for normal redirects. If we cache a normal redirect and you try to load it as a masked redirect, your browser will think there’s a security issue and refuse to load it.

I’m going to roll back the caching update until we get that sorted.

Everything should be back to normal. This only occurred under specific circumstances, and only when masked redirects were enabled, which is why it was so difficult to pin down. Thanks to everyone who made us aware of the issue and helped with troubleshooting!

using the utm_source parameter incorrectly. Instead of namepros.com, he should just use namepros.
According to our research, both are equally valid on every major analytics platform, including Google's.

Could you provide us with a source that indicates otherwise?

We appreciate your help.

The final correct URL must be:
"Must" is way too strong here. Technically, both will work. Important is that you remain consistent, and not mix both.

Thanks for sharing! 😊

We have a bit of a backlog of updates that still need to be added to this list because we've been focused on building and testing new features. For example, accepting offers can be disabled now, but it's not listed there yet.

We'll add more to it soon. :)

I totally understand @Bravo Mod Team! It must feel like trying to run a forum while developing a parking platform at the same time. :xf.cool:

Documenting all this on top of development is a universal developer pain.*

Kudos for pushing through; your efforts are much appreciated!

* a study by GitHub highlights that incomplete or outdated documentation is a prevalent problem, affecting 93% of respondents and often leading to frustration among developers.

Of course I am fond of the NamePros landers...just bugging you about the next big update that might include traffic stats . . . Hopefully the NPs graph will be long term or at least give us the option of selecting the 'time frame' of reporting.
@Paul tried to vibe code our own traffic stats for landers, but AI just isn't good enough yet:

But don't worry; we're back to working on it the old-fashioned way!

Coming soon. 😊

Well, that's not entirely true; we're still using AI to help with the more mundane coding and debugging. :) I just wouldn't go so far as to call it "vibe coding."
