Sedo.com - Worse than bad

[mattbodis]

Unfortunately, this is what Sedopro has come down to for me, with a 30% bonus I might add. They consider me in their top revenue share slot with this bonus. Traffic is steady, revenue is down.

I don't even want Sedo to give explanations or to comment, or to even bother doing anything. There's no reason for a $60+ revenue per day domain to drop to $1 per day. That is absolutely RIDICULOUS.

But I'm actually happy. Gives me a chance to win over 99% of the people using Sedopro when my parking program launches. :happy: With my marketing approach, they won't last 24 hours as I mentioned somewhere before.

I've seen this graphics before - in my own stats!

This can't be real! I quickly took a look at our IDN PPC on namedrive.

Avg PPC fell from 8 cents last mth to 7 cents this mth. Traffic went up 9% as usual (IDN traffic goes up about 8%-10% every mth), but not enough to offset the 13% drop in Avg PPC! :greensighw:

Avg PPC has been consistently falling through the mths, from 10 cents a few mths back.

same here. Sedo is really doing poorly for me and I have seen a $20 a day domain go down to $3 a day.

why dont you guys stop parking with SEDO and develop your names instead?

Why are you on a domain forum and not a webmaster forum? Hello, wake up. This is DNforum.com. That means, people that park, are domain investors, probably not webmasters.

How in the world do I develop a typo domain of a famous bank? I'd like to know this.

There is no reason to react like that. Domain names can be developed as well as parked - who said that a domain's only destiny is to be parked?

Actually, what GT wanted to say is "Look at my sig - I can develop you names into small adsense landing pages" :lol: - Which is a good solution by the way, why use sedo's or anyone else's landing pages, when you can use a google feed directly and earn x times more.

Everyone here talks about the bad revenues at parking companies, specialy Sedo. (My own revenue also went down last week to about 25% of my normal weekly average)

Nebody here is saying, that the revenue on AdSense pages is going down in about the same relation. My AdSense revenue went down last week to about 30 % of my normal average

This is a global internet advertising business problem!!!
Not a Sedo problem!!!

Shouldn't ad rates be going up as more advertisers move online and push up the rates? At least theoretically?

 

[petrosc]

This issue with revenue going down the hill is being discussed for months now. One thing I can't understand is: How can the SEDO revenue drop, when google announced an increase in their advertising revenue? - Or am I too dumb to get it?

We had this subject on another thread a few weeks ago.

The ammount of parking pages and developed revenue sites has rocketed up in past 12 months, specially the last 6 months as never before. All sorts of new TLDs with hundreds of thousands, or even millions of parking pages and developed sites.

The global advertising budget can just not grow accordingly.

We all just do our best, to get as much as possible of the cake, but the cake just doesn't get bigger.

Its pretty easy...and you'll make $0.40 per click instead of $0.04 per click.

If you'd know what your talking about, then you'd know that Google would ban you if they catch you monetizing a typo domain of a trademarked site using Adsense. And I'm not trying to insult you, it's the truth, it's in their TOS.
