Bido Is Back

[Jeff]

It looks like Bido is back:
February 19th: Bringing Bido Back at Conceptualist.com, By Sahar Sarid

The names they have up for auction are, IMHO, less than impressive:
EquityGrant.com
BarPictures.com
DressOrganic.com
HipHopPhotography.com
MyAstrologist.com
BuyCheaply.com
MyEntitlement.com

I'm really happy that Bido is back and wish Sahar and his team the best of luck with it. However, I do think Bido could use a better selection of domains for auction.

Those names you mention are not worth the reg fee.

Bido are caught up in their own hype. They have received a lot of great publicity from within the domain community and online journals but yet with all the free exposure they still can't pull it off.

To a large extent I agree with you.

They've done a masterful job with marketing Bido.

The platform they've built is very Web 2.0 and has pretty much everything you could ask for.

But ultimately you need good domains to auction, and they consistently seem to come up short in that regard.

I'm hopeful they can change this.
