Has anyone used Sedo.com?

    I have recently parked a few of my domain names on Sedo.com. There, my domains will show Sedo's advertisements and pay me if they are clicked.

    My question is... has anyone had any experience with this company? I don't want to show their ads for nothing.

    don't expect to make much with their ads. if you think you can do something more productive with your domain in the mean time, by all means, go for it.

    really, the best part about the sedo ads pages are that they 1) have unique content (lots and lots of sedo pages are in google-- this is a big plus for sales) 2) they let visitors know the domain is for sale.

    $50 to sell a domain for you!
    So if you want $10 for your domain, anyone wanting to buy or bid on that domain has to start at $60.
    Which means unless you have a good domain name that can be sold quickly, your domains will be there forever and a day.

    Myself, for the few pennies a day that my domains parked there make me, I would be better off removing them and just doing something with the domains to make more.
    Which I will do soon.

    I listed a complete website there last year. I did get some offers, $5000 for a $20,000 site.

    Anyway, what drove me to remove my listing was that after a couple weeks, a google search for my domain name (without the .com) came up with Sedo #2. Just what I wanted. No thanks to Sedo.

    I've got a bunch of domain names and websites listed there.

    Earnings from the clicks are not worth mentioning. Less that $1 a month.

    I did recently sell a site there. Still waiting for the transaction to complete. Taking forever for the domain name to transfer to the new owner.

    I thought about coming in here and seeing if anyone would make me a better offer for the site, but didn't think anyone would, so I didn't bother.

    Would you trust them for the visit count ?

    For example they show 2940 visitors for last month for the domain
    www bytheborder com . Do you really think that it really gets that many type-ins ?

    KissMyFireyAsss, if you think "SEDO" can be trusted.

    They are a bunch of crooks, shitheads, liars + (All Known Abuses to ManKind x Infinity).. I parked tons of domains with them... And i had some other scripts running and I found out that they bloody decrase your real traffic by atleast a good 65%, and they also just pay you about 5% of your actual revenue share.

    THEY ARE CHEATS. Full Stop.


    You people should try parking services like NameDrive or Goldkey. Their pay is good. And they are genuine and trustworthy.

    Peace,
    Furion
