If the sell-through rate (STR) is, say, 1% industry wide, when sellers list at more marketplaces, we would expect the STR of each marketplace to be less than 1%. Yes, you should get some increase from using more marketplaces, but listing 3 places won't triple your STR. 1K views · 19 likes · 2 reposts · 8 replies Open on X →

I like that shows number (exact match only) currently in your Atom Premium portfolio, and also a link to search for additions on Atom Wholesale marketplace. Yikes, I have zero Atom Premium with KW 'pay' or 'pro' it seems. 167 views · 5 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

Based on relatively small numbers, but on Atom recent sales data, I find the Atom leading KW sales data interesting. Find it in your Dashboard: Platform Analytics. Here is top of current terms, some surprises. https://t.co/IhIwQeonZ6

I was a member of unions for 36 years, but never actually knew origins of Labour Day. As you enjoyed yesterday off, hope you took a moment to appreciate the hard work done by labour organizations. 835 views · 14 likes · 0 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

Still a while away, but as you plan for available domain funds remember that wholesale .com prices are increasing by 7% on November 1, 2026, at 04:00 UTC. Renewing in advance strong names usually makes statistical sense. 722 views · 15 likes · 3 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

On Oct. 6, 227 Identity Digital extensions increase in price. See the full list at link. Everything from .bet to .center, .digital to .rentals, .run to .news. Note that .domains is on list, if you operate on one. Agree, it stoinks! https://t.co/NfMHqT1qzn 1/2 989 views · 15 likes · 1 reposts · 3 replies Open on X →
