compensation when sedo's down

stevie · Sep 9, 2005

how doe's sedo address compensation when it's services are down?
I only ask.. because yesterday my most recent catch had over 300 UV's... did sedo bump my traffic up? was this a freak 1 day event... or have I finally managed to catch a domain that can earn me a bit of dosh ;-)

It looks to me that sedo bumped up traffic to compensate for the new attack which brought their systems down. Having said that it looks like you've got a good domain because the compensation (and the amount bumped up) is, I understand, based on likely lost revenue (on a statistical basis from previous earnings). You may need to be patient and wait a few days if your domain has only just been added to sedo. I see that there are still no stats for today but as soon as they appear (and assuming the system is now OK) you will soon know if you've got a cracking domain or not.

140+ UV's and counting for today.. so looks like yesterday stats are fairly accurate... which I'm happy about ;-)
