My Sedo Revenue way down

[Brassneck]

Over the last month, Sedo views and revenue on .co.uk names is down by about 30 per cent. Anybody else seeing similar declines? Nearly all my domains rely on old links so perhaps something to do with a big change in Google indexing?

Thanks
Stephen.

I have had this happen before, domains going from €xx per day to virtually nothing. Sedo never had an explanation and as you cannot see the webstats there is no way to investigate.

You could point the domains at a hit counter for a day or two just so that you can do some traffic analysis otherwise just see if they pick up again.

I guess it must be something to do with the specific circumstances of your domains, because I just had my best EVER Sunday's revenue, capping an incredibly strong week at Sedo...

Does anybody have any views as to whether it is best to forward domains to sedo parking or to use the Sedo Nameservers.

Pleased that some are having success - I did have a really good April/May period but as I said things seemed to have slumped! :sad:

Until last week, it was better to forward.

Sedo has now changed its system to resolve wildcard subdomains i.e. ANYTHING.domain.co.uk and also all 404 pages i.e. domain.co.uk/ANYTHING

So it's best to use Sedo's nameservers since that will ensure 100% of traffic reaches a Sedo landing page.

Useful information, thanks Edwin.

Thanks for the info on the nameservers Edwin. All I need to do is to change this for 500 or so domains.

Just checked my stats today and they are abysmal - getting progressively worse! Very depressing.
