Protrada 'the domain exchange' - Say "Hi!" to Team Protrada

[RJ]

This is the official thread for Protrada and NamePros newest business member Team Protrada
Use this thread to discuss Protrada with other NamePros members, give feedback about the service and ask questions.

About Protrada:

Protrada is a new type of domain exchange that gives domain buyers and sellers a single platform to manage, buy and sell their domain name inventory. It integrates with the major drop markets (NameJet, SnapNames, Pool, GoDaddy) and marketplaces (Sedo, Afternic, GoDaddy) to provide a seamless buying and selling experience for domainers.

The technology is really quite cool! I was given a free account with credits to test their exchange and site builder and have been very impressed. Protrada's site builder provides a welcome alternative to domain parking. It builds socially networked content sites that automatically use my Google Adsense, Amazon, and eBay affiliate accounts. I can customize the logos on my sites and add pages of real content as I see fit.

You can also give it a try for free. Protrada has put together an offer of 100 credits for free for NamePros members. Each website costs 5 credits so this is enough to develop 20 of your domains out tonight! Hosting is included so this is a pretty sweet deal if you ask me.

SlimPickins,
At the moment, it is not possible to remove eBay Auctions from the Protrada built sites. The default account linked is Protrada's but we strongly encourage members to add their own EPN code so that you can generate additional revenue.

As mentioned earlier, we are constantly working on our ongoing effort to improve Protrada, and as such, we appreciate all feedback and suggestions and take them all into consideration.

Thank you,
Team Protrada

on sites developed using protrada, how does that work if a user has not supplied their advertising/affiliate info? for example, i see an "auctions" link in the dropdowns for each page.... but what if I have not set up an ebay epn? does protrada use theirs as default? is there a way to NOT use an auctions link if i am not/don't want to be an ebay affiliate so that it doesn't take attention away from amazon/adsense etc?

Looks like you also send traffic to other Amazon affiliates - check my mail about it

Hi,

The site looks interesting, I want to try it out. But I haven't been able to "verify" most of my domains. Support ticket got sent back, so here's my question:
I have the same email address for protrada login and as admin email for my domains, yet the verification is not working. I only want to use the "matching email" option.

Thanks!

I've just started playing with the site building side of things today. It sure seems easy so far. Cotton-Dresses.com is now resolving for me as my first Protrada site, it's still just the bare bones automatic site, but even at that it looks good. Customization is important and it looks very easy to work with.

My only issue is that I have been unable to sign into Protrada this afternoon using Firefox, Explorer worked fine.

On a side note, I also set up KitchenAppliances.co as a Protrada site, but it kept resolving as a standard parked page. Doing a little investigating... I found that I actually own KitchenAppliaces.co woops.. thanks Protrada with the automatic merge of names to my Protrada account you've saved me a renewal fee.

I got this problem. "Your Go Daddy account doesn't support auction feature." but I am using GoDaddy Auctions all the time. Anyone have same error?

Even though all of my accounts are linked, Protrada does not show any of my auctions. Is this because I have to add the domains to auction from WITHIN protrada to start tracking them? (It doesn't pull the auctions I'm already a part of from Snapnames, pool, etc.)

Also, please have the iPhone app remember login username and password, or at least username.

 

[scott_jay]

Wow, I really like the looks. Thank you for this, seems like a great platform. I will give it a try now and maybe will come back with a short review.

Thanks again and best of luck!

Hi RegFee,

Yes, that is correct. In order for your auctions to appear in Protrada and be tracked by the system, you will have to enter the auction from Protrada initially. Protrada will not pull any information from your accounts unless initiated by you, such is the case with importing domains - your domains will not appear in Protrada simply by linking your Go Daddy account for example, you will have to select the ones you want to import that and do so through the Protrada system.

Regarding the suggestion for the app, I will pass that on. We are constantly working on improving Protrada so all feedback and suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or comments. You can reach us here or through the contact us form on the Protrada website.

Thank you,
Team Protrada

Team Protrada,

I saw there is a monthly membership premium plan for protrada.

Will you accept paypal for payments? What are the features of this plan?

 

[DEFLECTED]
