I wish the “Valuation” didn’t go away when you Watch a domain with a valuation. In order to see the valuation you have to do a search for the domain to see it again outside of your “watching” section.

Might be something they are or will put in…

this is outstanding and a step in the right direction. I always felt they were pricing the variable minimum bids so high on traffic domains so that they could keep them for their own portfolio instead of allowing anyone to bid.

This maybe one of the reasons he has become so successful.

Maybe others should learn that when they are on the wrong side of the equation they should learn from their mistakes and make changes rather than argue for a continuation of indefensible policies

Good point Rob. Parsons is to be congratulated for his leadership, humility, objectivity, and his example.

A lot of people give GoDaddy a bad rap. Show me any other instance where the CEO communicated with an author of a critical story and made the changes that the author suggested.

GoDaddy is GREAT for our industry and we all better understand that. I don’t see any other registrars (or maybe even any other .com companies) advertising on the Superbowl.

Like it or not, GoDaddy represents us.

So does that mean if no one bids on a $10 domain, does it go to the $5 firesale, or do they keep some of the higher valued ones?
