Good morning all,
We’ve been busy all night (as well as the last seven+ months) working to get this release out. I’m here to tell you more about this release as well as to try and set expectations right.
1. Nothing is perfect. There may be some hiccups, we’re already aware of a couple of tech issues and are working on fixes. With this kind of release it is expected. If you do see something that isn’t right or doesn’t feel right please bring it to our attention, TIA!
2. You can now comment on expert commentaries: Above each commentary there is a link to comment, start a discussion.
3. You can now submit up to 100 names for consideration: This is a big difference from the 10 before. This number will likely increase with time.
4. You can now submit adult domains: If you do, please follow our submission format (on site, see link)
5. Experts: You can now vote on submitted domains: There is a tab for you as you are logged in called “Submitted Domains”.
6. Channel Chat: Each listed item has its own “Item chat” as well as there is now a global “Channel Chat” for all to participate.
7. We will soon be running multiple auctions per day: There are no “time slots” We can run as many as we want at the same time, all auctions are still one hour long however auction preview (where Pre-bids may be placed by potential buyers) will be extended up to 30 days, at your discretion. You may choose when to start the auction with the exception of weekends (Bido does not run weekend auctions)
8. Reserve auctions: You can list your domains with reserve. See our submit link on site for more details about our fee format.
There is much more in this release and we will cover it all in an email newsletter to our members. To learn more, just go to the site and start playing around with it.
Today auction is expected to be exciting, make sure not to miss it, 1PM Est. (Samoyeds.com). During the auction we will be in the Channel chat discussing this release further & more.
Have a great day, and as always, comments, feedback, thoughts are always most welcome, and highly appreciated!
Cheers,
Sahar

Sahar,
The site looks great! I’ve been following some discussions and respect the way you handle the naysayers. Bido’s definitely making some huge progress. Good luck!

Thanks Chris. This release is the cornerstone for other stuff we’re about to release in the very near future. A lot is about to change now pretty quickly. Time will tell the story.
Thanks again!

Love the new look, I really need to get the name of the designer. Well done. I have always loved the site but felt it needed more “action” You just added the action. I look forward to spending more time there now, both buying and selling. Combine that with a place to give opinions and you have my version of heaven. Thanks
I’m impressed with the new features. Solving the problem of liquidity in the domain market is more important than ever. It will address the needs of domainers as we are all sellers, just some more than others.
One suggestion is:
It would be nice to improve customer service by returning email questions. Also, if one’s domain is not selected that person should be notified as well. So they can auction it elsewhere.

We always answer questions as far as I know, email Administrator@Bido.com / Jarred@Bido.com with your questions. As for those domains which do not make it, we fully agree and while we already improved the process, we intend to improve further.
Cheers
Sahar
