Acro ....
I moved a few weeks ago .... just gave up totally on Sedo.
my popup revenue on DS is nearly as good as my recent Total sedo earnings.
My total DS earnings is about 20 times Sedo ...
Sedo = biggest joke ever
I had domains parked at Sedo that I classed as non revenue .... now making about $20+ a month ..... and the big earners are just great... I feel any domain with traffic at sedo gets very low epc as standard.... New policy in the August changeover IMO...
Sedo just does not compare any more .... it should no longer be classed as a parking company !

Sedo was watching this thread late last night. Did they address any of our concerns?
All they did was state that the stats are back. The fact is, the stats were butchered yesterday. I don't need conpensation, I want Sedo to admit guilt on their part and to improve their services.
Sedo, this is my traffic you're making money on. I might be one, but multiply my imminent departure several hudred times over and you will realize your financial loss will be substantial. Furthermore, losing reputation points is something you can't easily fix, unless you strive to improve service. So why not fix the goddamn service in the first place?
As I said before, part of Sedo's fall is the fact that a triad of nations run the company: US, Germany, UK.

namestrands: Would you please update?
20 times?
Are you kidding me?
What % of your total revenue is from popup?
I am asking because I hate popup ;-)
I need to move my domains, but, where to?
It's going to be pain to move 300+ domains since they are
spread all over different registrars :-(
I almost moved them few weeks back, but, availability of my time
prevented me to do so.

Yeah I can update..
Revenue for Yesterday was more than wednesday & thursday combined plus popunder rev was treble that of SEDO Pros.. I will calculate the exact percentages and post on Monday.
SEDO guesstimate the revenue, thats why your clicks rev decreases each time on the same keyword.
Every other parking program that uses google or yahoo, have to wait at least 24 hours for the real stats. Sedo do it in an hour, they are able to do this based on previous months stats or a calculation of stats to date. IT'S NOT REAL, and therefore somewhat dishonest.
Any company that would SPAM the whois of domainers with domains parked at NAMEDRIVE really do have some issues. 3 times now I get an email from SEDO saying that I would earn more with them. Clearly this is not the case.
Well SEDO I tried your SEDO PRO with Thousands of Domains.. First Couple of Days you were competitive, now you are no better than the likes of MIVA.
0 Offers on Domains at SEDO (Parked at SEDO)
9 Offers at AfterNIC (not parked domains)
3 Offers at Trafficz (past 48 Hours)
If the parkers and sellers dont trust you then why would the buyers.
I really dont know why I bother trying... 2 years and still the same old Crap.
3500 domains at SEDO can not even earn $600 a month
Same 3500 domains elsewhere earn $2500+ (minimum) while also making at least $3000 in sales each month.

SEDO, whats the point?

I just moved ALL our domains currently at Sedo away from them and to Trafficz and NameDrive. Enough is enough already. Some that were moved are premium domains we purchased in 1995 - so they will miss us.
I have had these domains parked loyally there for almost two and a half years now. We should be making more money not less money - the PPC market is still growing, and will grow at a great pace for several more years - where's our cash? We have no domains at any other parking company where the bottom line is crashing - now or in the past - this is unprecedented, and a brazen move by SEDO. Our bottom line never even went up temporarily like it did for some folks using SEDO.
Why even bother anymore sending SEDO angry emails, or otherwise? I'm burnt-out dealing with them. It is apparant from all the professional domainer opinions here that it's a waste of time. I feel the same way. I suggest that if you are comfortable with your income flow to possibly take a small temporary hit leaving SEDO that you do so and try others - it's easy to get lazy and not experiment. If you need every cent to live on to pay your bills, that's another matter and requires careful planning and skill.
Even if a handful of our domains could make more at SEDO, I prefer not dealing with the uncertainties of the SEDO system, lack of support, feeling like I am always being mislead, and having to repeatedly reoptimize - screw this - I'm out of the SEDO system even if some domains take a loss. Why deal with folks that you don't feel are being straight-up with you? Once again, where's my cash? I don't see it for all my efforts. I'm not in this business to give away my valuable traffic almost for free - are you?
And, like you guys say - they don't respond here in the forum or to many of our emails so who cares anymore? If they cared and were really trying hard to rectify things I would have some pity, but they don't care and are not trying, so I have no pity - do you?
There would need to be some major changes before I look back at the SEDO system again.
Regards, K
Yes.... adult traffic is crashing too at SEDO. Worst it's ever been.
I agree with this statement by dvdrip.

That should be post of the month. I agree 100%.
First off, Sedo has not displayed an iota of professionalism by blatantly avoiding this thread. Maybe the so-called "specialists" it employs are unable and unauthorized to post here. Maybe they just hate their job, thinking they could be working elsewhere, where the companies are being praised instead. Who knows. All I know is that I am not a freaking charity giving things away for free. My traffic is my living. Sedo can find excuses about revenue drops but I am looking at Google's stock at $481 right now, $22 up from Friday and I am thinking "hmmmm, WHERE IS MY MONEY???".

I've found the same thing. Aside from the big slide when they were "improving our earnings" October has been pathetic for adult traffic names.
It doesn't really make sense. When they "switched" a huge amount of highly relevant adult keywords/ads became available, more so than other parking services.
But this slide falls within the usual Sedo pattern: same number of monthly hits with an actual increase in number of clicks. Lower and lower earnings.

After almost 300 posts and 7,000 pageviews, do you doubt Sedo doesn't care? They have lost an opportunity to use this forum as a positive marketing tool - instead it has become a rather large - and indexable - complaint box.
I am serious, Sedo employees that visit DNF must really hate their job - otherwise, I cannot explain the complete lack of feedback.

I don't know about "my earnings is falling down", but it looks like people are having their trousers pulled down. Shocking.

I'm moving my domains out this weekend. Bye Bye Sedo.
We should start a "duhhh" counter and see how many people post and actually make someone else money before they do something
or Fold. I would be happy with both. But I have trouble understanding the logic behind them. If everyone is seeing drop offs and is having problems with them, then WHO USES THE SERVICE?
It's like walking into a wall over and over again while people on either side of you just simply walk through the door. How often do you need to do that before your head hurts? And How long before Sedo gets sick of not having customers come in and spend their money with them, and do something since the customers keep going somewhere else.
Either something does not add up here or whoever runs Sedo wants to run it into the ground. Ahah.

They are most likely holding back to announce something at traffic.. we are all going to be amazed.. for about 2 weeks and then its back to the same old crap.
Christmas is coming guys & gals and I dont know about you, but I need the money.. I cant be wasting my time with the drama of SEDOs RollerCoaster Stats and its customer (dis)service. Google Anounced MASSIVE earnings this week... SEDO get paid more per click than the other programs, this new feed is supposed to be the Dogs Bollocks, more money for SEDO? what about us?
One Question Left... SHOW ME THE MONEY... Actually Keep your money, this domainer has left the building.
toot toot and am ooot...

Here is a case where Sedo's yo-yo earnings are causing friction between a seller and a buyer.

Compared to trafficz all your domains at SEDO will be worst performing.
