just received this not so long ago.. great news... ds v3.0 should be good :)


----------------------

Thank you for your patience with us in the past few months. We wanted to let you know once again that you, the publisher, have always been our first priority here at Domain Sponsor. It is your continued loyalty that has allowed us to constantly improve our product and develop new features that will benefit all of us.

As you are probably aware, we’ve recently experienced various technical problems that have since been resolved. We wanted to reassure you that we’ve increased our system monitors and set up a rapid response system to immediately address any problems we encounter.

More importantly, we at Domain Sponsor would like to share with you the news that during the past few months, we have entirely rebuilt and reconfigured the Domain Sponsor product and are happy to announce the upcoming release of DomainSponsor 3.0. Upon launch, you will see the following improvements:

1. Faster load times
2. Excellent product stability
3. Consistent and reliable publisher data
4. Customized landing pages and search results pages
5. Dynamic, real-time domain categorization with category-specific pages (~2 weeks after full release)
6. 1 click boxes (~2 weeks after full release)
7. Highly flexible and targeted results (~2 weeks after full release)

DomainSponsor 3.0 has undergone rigorous testing and the results have been above expectations. We foresee a smooth and seamless implementation. In the unlikely event that we experience technical difficulties, we will take the following steps to ensure that your revenues are not negatively affected:

a. Review past and present payouts and immediately credit you for the difference based on your average earnings.
b. Immediately credit you for the difference in payouts that you lost
c. Post a real-time system status to notify you

Additionally, to thank you for your patience in case an inconvenience occurs, we will adjust the credit to 5% above normal levels. This will ensure that no risk whatsoever is passed on to you during this period of transition. Depending on where you fall in the rollout schedule, you will see the benefits of DS 3.0 as early as next week or by the end of the month.

We are very excited about the launch of Domain Sponsor 3.0 and look forward to the improved stability and enhanced optimizations that the product will bring us. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact either your account representative or any of our full-time dedicated customer support representatives.

Yep got the same notice...the 1 click boxes and faster load times sound good to me. I use to really do well on some domains with 1 click links. Hopefully everyone's revenue goes up :)

I"m also happy to see 3.0. Revenue and clicks has dipped steadly for the past month or so and the one click landers will be a welcome addition. I'm also excited about the custom landers.

I wish DS good luck with DS 3.0

Just hope they tweek and test everything to avoid problems and they also make sure that it actually beats the old DS 2.0 revenues (from 2 months ago not the latest ones) hands down.

Thanks.

Geez... been hoping for something like this as my DS revenues have been getting worse & worse & worse month by month lately.

I'll gladly welcome back the one-click links & a lot of the other stuff sounds exciting also!!

Bring on DS 3.0!!

Yeah.. I noticed this while reading a post @ the 'other forum'... if you have "ds3combined" in your URL then that means you have been upgraded to DS 3.0. tho I doubt all of the features are there yet!?

I talked with them at Domain Roundtable about this. Supposedly most of the changes will take place behind the scened this time - new servers, faster load times for parking pages, etc. I doubt we'll see major changes in look and feel. They did say that they will again offer one-click pages at some point for some domains, and they are experimenting with graphics and stuff.

I'm on the new DS 3 program and my revenue % has increased nicely so far. Let's hope they keep it up.
