Did anyone else notice a change in CPCs over the last 2-3 days? It seems that many keywords that paid well before now pay significantly less..a little bit like they are trying to subsidize low paying keywords at the expense of good keywords, anybody else notice something?
 
Agree with you 100% thought my revenue is up.
 
50% down compared to last Saturday. Sedo is now the yo-yo parking provider.
 
Trafficz overall income has been down for me and for others over the last few days too. (not too sure about CPC as I don't follow that).

I have also noticed a few domains doing a bit better (just a handful, it would appear) and all the rest doing worse.

Income seems to be down by around 25% comparing each day this week to the same day last week.
 
dotNetKing,

I think the actual thread was regarding Sedo.
 
Current PPC is en-route to generate yet another 1/2 earnings day.
 
I find many Domains of my portfolio have gone down significantly, but others have gone up very very high. My record was a sole klick of 5 €!!!. I had never had such a thing at Sedo before.

In general my revenue has gone up, but there is a lot of daily fluctuation, depending what domains get clicked on.
 
The problem is, those 5-euro ones will come once a month, while the steady, regular PPC values that you used to get are now below 10 cents.

If you have referred memebers to SedoPro, you will also see that their revenue has gone down.
 
Oddly as I moved more domains away from Sedo (only a few left there ) my earnings have went UP ( yes less domains ... more revenue )
So i think i have cracked the SEDO code
the less active domains in an account = more revenue per domain
so create 50 small accounts ( if thats allowed / and you could really be bothered ..... )
hey presto ... 50 accounts that pay better ... OR MOVE !

PS : I wont be opening any other accounts ... just for the record .. one is enough !
 
Does anyone have a clue which specific keywords pay well at Sedo these days? If anyone would like to "trade" information on how much certin keywords pay it would be greatly appreciated ... PM me if you dont wanna post here, I have a hard time optimizing my domains lately
 
Hey guys,

The new CPC feed went into effect on August 16th. Initially there were some significant fluctuations. If you comapre your earnings from before August 16th to now, you should see a positive change. If not, you may want to consider reoptimizing your keywords to target where most of your traffic is coming from.

If you look at the earnings from after August 16th to now, you will see some major fluctuations, but it is important to look at the big picture :)

This answer right here shows us that you seem to know less than we do, I am not talking about August 16th..maybe you should ask around a little about how some CPCs at least were changed again last week..this has nothing to do with reoptimization... how am I supposed to buy domains in the future if CPCs for a keyword changes from $1 to 30 cents in a day for some keywords..google bid-prices dont change that rapidly for common keywords..

i just looked at the bigger pictures and guess what - your post does not reflect the truth !!

just counting only half of my usual traffic in the past 24 hours ,just to get the click % up , does not make my revenue go up !!!

L@@k at the revenue total per day from august 01 to august 16 and then look after that - it is plain and simple not true !!!!
 
The big picture is that we are all making less than what we did before.
If this is what you have to offer to this forum then this a waste of our time and yours.

..are you guys shifting CPCs to pay better for terrible keywords on the expense of good keywords? For those keywords that google has $8 bids for the third rakned Ad you guys pay 50 cents..and for CPCs that google has a top bid of 30 cents you pay 40 cents..that doesnt make any sense....
 
tried changing keyword

- took quite some time for the keyword to be approved
- keyword got rejected
- the category picture not working... became "undefine". i am using retro purple.
 
I am hitting new lows today for CPCs..anyone else?
 
October is even worse than September that was the worst month in nearly 2 years.
 
sedo is just getting worse - just like namedrive ,klickerz and fabulous !

THEY ALL STINK !!!!
