Hi

On a couple of occassions when calling up names I have for sale on sedo, I've been immediately presented with a click through page which without prompt redirects to groupon.

Has anyone else had this problem.

bluerock

yes, I quizzed them and its to do with domains that get little traffic are filtered to another ad provider. If you try and re optimize your domain you might find this goes back to a normal sedo page.

Zero Click is an additional feature of Sedo's Parking Program. If your domain is eligible for Zero Click, a visitor to your parked page will directly see a targeted advertiser landing page. Visiting the page through Zero Click is considered a click and is credited as such.

Is this a joke ? I put the name on to sell it, how am I going to get an offer from groupon ?

I typed in the name today and was directed to

http://www.groupon.co.uk/?CID=UK_AFF...tent=aff_1&nlp

which went on to

http://www.groupon.co.uk/?CID=UK_AFF...tent=aff_1&nlp

and then loads of pop ups

This is scandalous!

Rob re your PM

last time it directed to

http://79064.thespecialsearch.com/xt...aZxokHsQaRj4k=


then to

http://www.bestholidaynews.com/sea-a...our-own-7.html

every time you press the back button you are directed to another page

http://instantcarloans.net/

http://priceowl.com/

http://noquote.com/ etc etc etc

There is no for sale box or link on any page

You don't get a choice to not go to the page they provide.

If you try to go in shortly after, it obviously has a time bar on your cookies and goes to the normal sedo page.

How many people is this happening to ? if you have hundreds or thousands of domains with them you can't check all of them all the time.

I've not seen this redirect to Groupon in action, but I had an offer on a domain I sold on Sedo recently, I didn't know what the buyer was on about when part of his message with his next offer said:

@ Sedo,

Just registered as a click, or a click and commission, if no commission, that's even worse.

sedo

Zero click is only available when our main advertising provider is no longer providing ads for a domain

You will generate revenue through Zero click.

Your parking revenue through the Zero Click program is also visible in your Parking Statistics section (My Sedo > Parking Statistics). A visit to your eligible domain triggers Zero Click, in which the visit is counted as a "click".
