@toughdomains Very slow, I'd suggest using a CDN. Google offers a $300 free trial for 1 year, I personally use Google CDN+Cloudflare for my website, if this doesn't speed up your website then there is something wrong with your website code.

@toughdomains Is this self serve or do we need to manually submit each name? How do we use the marketplace?

we pull in domain data from different apis to build a profile for the name then we layer in some interest factors such as offers made to the domain to rank the names in order of most popular or visited rather than just rank a domain by no rank...what you should see at every filter sort are the better names at the top. other marketplaces dont have any specific way to list the names after you filter down to what you want. this is only about a week old but as more people use the marketplace it will have more data to rank more names based on what users are interacting with

The 'Visits' column is misleading imo and can give an unfair advantage to lower 'name quality' domains that might have 'fake' traffic over higher 'name quality' domains that might have lower traffic (but 'real' traffic).

Domains that are intended for sale solely because of the quality and creativity of the name shouldn't show any traffic-related metrics imho.

It makes sense to base the order of appearance on other metrics (like, eg. 'orders received') but there shouldn't be any visible metrics lest the visitor gets the wrong feeling that 'higher number' on any metric equals 'better domain'.

Again, that's just my opinion.

Agreed 100%
also visits is a combined number of people visiting the name in market and traffic coming from the domain. And your right you can game alot of that traffic. but wanted to include it somewhat for legit names with real traffic but not enough to trick the rank.
We have very little weight placed on visits.
You can see in the default sort order, a name with 6 visits will still rank high on the sort order because the weight placed on visits is very low. We will also balance the algo as we receive more data.

listing is free and self serve with a bulk upload (no need to add one at a time)
you create a free account, load all the names to the account and any name that is marked for sale is listed automaticlaly in the marketplace. you can bulk add 500 names at a time and set bulk buy now and min offer prices
