What is up with all these proxy sales threads?

Yes the paying thing will turn this site bad (that topic has been disscussed before), All the site needs is what i suggested above 2 sections Established Sites and Turnkey/Fresh sites.

Thanks i hope Admin can do this for us so it makes life easy.

Also one other thing there should be one more called Want to Buy forum aswell.

 

Great suggestions

Proxys have become popular over the last few weeks I believe as more are ditching them as it's bad for adsense (or so iv heard).

 

So someone forwards this thread to shawn or to a mod that can make a difference

erm i just noticed we are already int he feedback forum. good work. lets hope the b/s/t section will improve.

 

I dont agree(First, I myself do that work...lol)

There can be a sub forum but they must not be stopped. Why is there problem if the buyers dont have problem, sellers dont have, then?

Why read the proxy site sale thread when we arent interested?

 

Create a subforum for Proxy Sales & that should make the OP happy

 

I also have to add in that as I browse the sales section all I see are proxies and directories, therefore now the b/s/t section has become a in-attractive and more boring community to be in.

 

Well this will make DP same as SP and people will gone form selling or buying things.

 

thats what i said, i said it should remain free, yet move proxies to a subforum.

 

I think there should be a subforum for everything related to proxies. Including site sales, advertising, domains, templates, etc.

One of the reasons for a mass of proxy site sale threads is a lot of proxies hit a high at some point and then the owners sell because of the risk of a low as the sites start to then get blocked.

 

The amusing thing is people are actually paying alot of money for these 1 week old, free script, 99c domain proxies.

The Site Sales would go good splitting it in to 2 sections, Under $500 & Over $500

Your budget Directories, Proxies etc can go in 1 and serious sites in the other.

Inclusion for Budget Sites could be: BIN of Less then $500 & Starting Bid of under $500 if no BIN set.

 

I don't think you can do this on price, but certainly new/turnkey sites vs established.

 

you can't divide on price because value is in the eye of the seller.
seriously, plain and simple, move the proxies to their very own separate forum, we're sick of having to surf inner pages to reach something unrelated.

 

Huh, it's in the eyes of everyone if a BIN is over or under $500.

 

I always look for half decent sites on Digital Point but now its all Proxys.

 

A lot of people when buying sites now state not interested in proxies.

 

I have to bring this thread up again to the top. The sites for sale section should be split into Turnkey and Established. As it is I have to suft 15 pages or to read all of the websites for sale. Its really annoying now the whole front page is AutoBlogs, Proxys, 10$ websites and templates.

It would make a lot of sense to add in a sub forum - Is there any moderators reading this thread if so what do you think? (Ive never seen a moderators post on DP...)

True very true. Something should be done to make this community better, instead of most of the staff on Digital Point never replying to the users feedback and ideas to make DigitalPoint a better place, maybe you don't want it to be any better?

 

Maybe choose a long time poster to be an Admin of the Marketplace section and they can work with the people from that section to make it better for everyone... Is any mods reading these ideas?

 

I also agree that there are too many proxies in the BST forums. I also really like the idea of an Established Sites and New Sites sub-forum. I have been trying to find an established website to buy and this would help me out.

 

Proxies are obviously to easy to make and sell, and because they are popular people will sell loads of them. I myself have no problem with all the sales threads, I enjoy going through them.
