When I tested Parked.com my domains jumped in Google placement within a week of using their templates and system. Despite the fact that the feeds are from Yahoo! The reason: Parked uses generated META tags with related keywords and descriptions.

Search for ANY term or for the domain itself in Google for Sedo domains and you will get a generic blurb that states the domain is for sale at Sedo! No content-related keywords, no description - nothing.

This is really bad in the long term because the domains do not retain any search engine visibility!

Sedo, fix this.
 
I was told by Donny of Parked.com that I should not hold my breath waiting on this. It's a shame that such a simple addition destroys all search engine placement for domains parked at Sedo.
 
Revisiting - a month later. It seems that Sedo is quietly chiseling away on some code, as seen in the following HTML source:

<meta name="description" content="" />
<meta name="keywords" content="" />
<meta name="robots" content="index, follow, all" />
<meta name="GOOGLEBOT" content="index, follow, all" />
<meta name="revisit-after" content="1 days" />
<meta name="expires" content="NOW" />
<meta name="audience" content="Alle" />
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />
<meta name="rating" content="general" />
<meta name="language" content="en" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-language" content="en" />

This is great news.

However, there is no indication in Sedo(Pro) where to enter such keyword data. Is it just a placeholder for future use? On its own it does little at this point but it does offer hope.
 
This would be a great feature. Meta keywords and descriptions can potentially make a world of difference.

Come on, Sedo..
