I'm in the US.

My parked sedo sites appear in German text, yet show English ads. This is very strange, how do I change it? Basically the text outside of the english ads is in German.

Also, there is no link on my pages to "get more information" or for people to make an offer. Why is this? When I go to my listings it says in red "we are verifying blah.com, cl.com, etc" - but it has been like this for over 3 days. No one can make offers if 1) the text is in german on the parked pages and 2) there's no link.

Thanks to anyone who can help!
 
Hi Sparshpolly,

Email me with the domains in question at [email protected] and I'll sort it out for you. If your names are still being verified, it normally means that it's in the New Entry Check. This could be if the info in your whois doesn't tally directly with the info in your Sedo account. Once they get through the check, then they should be optimized correctly.

I look forward to hearing from you.

I hope the folowing info might help.

I use different ISPs depending wether I am at my office, my house, or wherever.
I also have different isp's setup with different computers that uses different OS.
With a specific combo of 1 ISP and MAC OS X (US English Edition) ALL my sedo names show up in German!!!
Yet from another computer, they show up in the designate language that I have chosen (99% English).
There is definately 'something' in the way that Sedo reads where the incoming traffic is and changes it, sometimes erroneously. For some reason, with my Mac and that ISP, they assume I am in Germany.
 
Just for the record, I also use Max OS X. I emailed Ed, he said they will work on the problem. Also, the browser is Safari.
 
same here. safari.
 
I can confirm that viewing via a mac and safari produces the same results as mentioned above.
 
This issue has not been fixed yet.
