Templates changed throughout my entire portfolio

[Theo]

As of today, all of the templates have changed disregarding my selection per domain. Anyone else witnessing the same problem?
They all look like - example - bluephoto.com

I just checked my domains and see the same. All domains seem to have the sedo basic lander.

 

[Theo]

Thanks snicksnack. That's not good news at all, a lot of domains' revenue clearly depends on the template chosen.

I have been *****ing about this for weeks with my acct manager.

I'm sending her a link to this thread.

It started out with every template reverting to Auto Select even after I have optimized.

Then, I was not able to mass modify the template.

Then, I just looked at one that I optimized today and it is basic lander.

Yup, mine too.

That is the basic Lite template.

It seems that this issue has been "crawling" around for a while, affecting more and more accounts. Things were different for me on Friday - not sure about Saturday - but today Sunday all of my domains are like this.

Exactly, you can't change the template at all.

 

[IBN]

o.k. me too...

 

[Vinnee]

Same as well. Happened past several days.

Maybe you guys and Acro should switch more to parked.com where the automatic templates and auto optimizing are excellent based on my experience today.

 

[Theo]

Actually I have no complaints from Sedo's PPC but the current situation with the template change is ridiculous.

 

[Theo]

Things are now back to normal for me.

glad it's back to normal, before i even noticed


but let's say ...it was stuck on "lite" template for more than a day or two


would it be interesting to see the differences a template makes, if any?

would you be willing to risk the chance to evaluate?

 

[Gerry]

Based on my CTR (about 3%) it was horrible for me.

 

[David G]

The fact Domain Sponsor has/had such bad templates for years like the most common ones with merely a simple bunch of odd colored circles or squares yet many domainers and heavy hitters like DS kind of confirms the templates make little if any difference, imo.

[Theo]

OK, back on subject please - this is not about template quality, other PPC companies etc.

As of now, I am unable to change the templates. Sure, they display the ones of my previous choice but the web site doesn't reflect my new selection. Anyone else that faces the same issue?

 

[Gerry]

Same here.

Again, I will contact my Acct. Manager.

We've been having this discussion for a couple of weeks with "No one is complaining"

Unable to mass modify anything in account.

 

[Theo]

Things are back to normal with regards to switching templates. I haven't tested mass-modification - Doc?

 

[Gerry]

Yes, now Mass Modify is working - for the moment.

What gets me is I have been complaining about this for perhaps 2-3 weeks. When I complain, I am told that they are not getting any other complaints about template issues.

At this point, I would recommend everyone to occasionally log into their account and just test your template mass modify.

This has been happening way too often than I can count.

And, there is definitely a noticeable decrease in daily earnings.
