Up until this week (I think), Bodis has been a "one man Show". It is amazing, nonetheless, how much he has accomplished, and, considering the amount of questions he gets on the NP forum thread, I think he has done fairly well responding.

I think it is this week that he is adding a staff person to track support tickets and emails. So, things should get better in that regard. Hang in there.

I have not been with them long enough to have received payment yet, but I am quite impressed.

Love the custom landers, colors, creating and uploading your own images, adding titles, sub titles and descriptions that YOU create which may help in the indexing in Search Engines.

I have been playing around with this on primarily drop catches or expired names or even new regs and have been very, very impressed with Traffic, CTR, and PPC. Every extension for me is doing well including .com, .net, .org, .info, .us, and even .biz. Strong keyword domains and hyphenated domains as well are all enjoying good traffic and revenue.

I have complete confidence in this system and will be moving more and more high paying domains over from Sedo and other sources. In some cases, the PPC may be less but with 300-500% CTR and every click counted will certainly make up the difference of any significance from Sedo.

I still have the few oddball domains that are getting traffic in the thousands and no CTR but this was the case while at Sedo and ND and others. Mostly Asian in origin and trying to figure out what it is people are searching for.

But I am overall satisfied with Bodis.

And I am not an affiliate of nor a paid endorser of Bodis. Simply a satisfied customer.

Call me a doubting Thomas but could more paid customers come forward please and share your results (i.e. paper revenue vs. paid).

I've got a couple of those too. When putting them in a framed window on my own server, (which I can't do on Bodis though), and check the logs, it seems most hits are direct linking to files that doesn't exist any more.
Such traffic will never monetize, since they never really see your parking page...

But most domains are getting great results on Bodis.

Seach landers at ND revealed many requests in both English and Chinese language but still not doing much. A couple are converting in some traffic at bodis once I entered the search terms.

Perhaps it may just take longer to get indexed.

I received my check for the last week in july as promised for 265.00, so far payouts have been pretty good but still problems need to be ironed out like some days 10 clicks next day none but overall i would recommend them I am running about even with my best performing days elswhere but the potential is bigger because of increase in traffic and Matts word that they will implement some quality controls on traffic soon, being 90 percent of my traffic is usa based I think I will fare even better.

I would just like to get Accepted into the program with my 1800 names.The get back to you fast if the reject you (I got rejected for listing adult names in my app and was told to re-apply.You can't re-apply with the same e-mail either) But getting it seems to take a long time to get approved? I am not sure why. Big Jumbo took along time also...I just don't understand what takes so long? I'd love to move my names over from SEDO.

Well, maybe because up until now Bodis has been a "one-man team" run by Matt :)

Where do you think the money will come from to pay for that person?

Any company needs to make a profit and pay expenses, they dont operate out of pocket, so the next time you think your earning 100% revenue, ask yourself; 100% of what?

Matt has stated on several occasions that the profit will come from a service that still hasn't been launched... not from the parking.
No word on what the service will be, except that it's not anything we will have to buy unless we want it.

"Any company needs to make a profit and pay expenses, they dont operate out of pocket"
That is personal or small business economics, in the real world and big business things don't work that way.

Since when do companies need to make a profit right off the bat?

In fact for tax reasons it's better if they don't for the first 3 years and take a loss.

Amazon.com, Yahoo.com, Google.com, Netscape, Youtube didn't not make profit for the first several years (please correct me if I am wrong on that) They now make a profit (except youtube)

What Bodis.com is doing in my opinion is going after market share once they have a large part of the parking market they have many options to then make a profit at that point (which I am not going to go into becuase I am not being paid to consult.)

The only people that have to make a profit are those that depend on the money to pay their bills. If Bodis is working off of Venture Capital or Angel money they do not need to make anything at this point which is why they can give it all to us. And they said they were going to only extend this offer for a few months.

What Bodis is doing is very smart business and will pay off in the long run if they can keep it going. Being that is has been a one man show, I'd say they are early in getting the VC or Investors. Things will speed up as things move along.
