Sedo Traffic Analysis

[MicroGuy]

Can someone tell me if it's possible to determine the origin of traffic to a parked Sedo domain? I just picked up a dropped adult domain and it's gone balistic in terms of traffic AND clicks. Today traffic is spiking once again. I want to move it to another parking company.

However, if the traffic is coming from the parked page being indexed in Google or another search engine, I might need to leave it alone. Right?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

The traffic analysis statistics should be at the bottom of that page you have shown. If you don't see them, it is either because you are not a Sedopro member and they only show that for Sedopro members (not 100% positive) or because it hasn't been there long enough.

There is a dedicated Sedo thread here http://www.namepros.com/parking-and-traffic-monetization/408817-sedo-com-official-thread.html. You can get a direct response from Sedo there.

its for sedopro, i can let u add it on my whypark account or my dedi server if u like, for free ofcourse
in there u can see where the traffic comes fro, 24 hrs would be enough

Something is going on here but I don't have Sedo Pro and can't track traffic origin. I just contacted Sedo to see if they can tell where this traffic is coming from.

I've had domains get traffic like this but never with this type of increase in traffic AND clicks.

Whats the domain?

Is it still getting heavy traffic?

I'm not going to post the domain yet since it would effect traffic. Yes, it's still getting traffic and growing. So far today, it's at 2628 uniques.

I also just got this email from Sedo:

 

[MicroGuy]

Sale ended.

 

[MicroGuy]

Last chart for tonight. It keeps going, and going.

Today's chart:

$14.00 this month already. Thinking about retirement if this trend continues. :wave:

You could use a free stat counter that would gather traffic details before redirecting to the Sedo page so you can get accurate traffic stats.

 

[MicroGuy]

Yes, I thought about that and frankly I'm afraid to change anything. Sedo is somehow managing (auto?) this domain because the parked page layout keeps changing (and traffic and CTR keeps increasing).

I'll keep using the old school "don't fix it if it's not broken" mentality for now I guess.

Hi, is it $14.00 / month ? in one adult domain ?

 

[MicroGuy]

As of today, it's $15.72 for this month with traffic and rev increasing daily.

Just got this email? It's funny because I contacted them to ask them about this traffic. Now they cancelled my account. WTF.

That sucks. I PMed Carolyn and Stephanie for you on the Sedo thread. I am sure that it is just an error with the system. Most likely that the computer temporarily suspended your account until a real person reviews the problem.

Hopefully you hear back from them soon.

 

[MicroGuy]

I called and spoke with someone in management.

He said that there was nothing he could do and that someone from their fraud department would be contacting me in a couple of days.

And to think I've been jumping in and defending you guys when a negative thread pops up on the forum. Thanks Sedo!

I sympathize with you.They suspended a "noob"back in June...which was me.I have been going back and forth with Donny for the past few days.I was no money making machine,I made pennys if anything.I did not know how traffic worked and just wanted to look at my ads that were showing up.I was actually looking for end users to see who advertised,and contact them directly,to sell domains.They suspended me for "self clicking",and that is the last thing that would enter my mind.I have literally begged Donny to help me.I now know something about parking,and need to park with them,but he does not care.Rules are rules,and I have literally cried myself to sleep over the accusation.I never made any money with them,and should have at least been warned.I am a female,with skin that is not that tough. In this economic climate,times are tough anyway.People should not block others,who are absolutely clueless(like me)for making a mistake.Now,I am blocked from making a living.If anyone that can help me,or know Donny,could speak to him,it would sure be helpful.I have been blocked for 4 months now,and I believe I have learned a rule,that I cant look at the pages that my name generates.

Are you talking about Parked or SEDO?

At any rate, you're certainly not blocked from making a living. There are plenty of other places you can park your domains, and other things you can do with them, like develop them, or sell them. Unfortunately the living you picked (parking) is so rife with fraud that there just isn't room for mistakes. It's not Donny's fault, it's yours. I'm sorry to be harsh, but them's the realities - you have to do your due diligence FIRST, and if you mess up, then you learn from it and move on.

None of the boys will mention it publicly, but I can't say that mentioning that you're female and have a thin skin helps your case any either, sheesh. Nor the touch economic times. Things are tough all over. You are not *owed*.
