TAKE A TOUR AND EXPLORE PROTRADA

This is where you land after logging into Protrada.

You can jump right in and start buying domains, importing your domains, reviewing websites you‘ve chosen for development or selling your domains by clicking on the relevant buttons.

The Status Summary tab tells you how your recent trading is progressing; how many auctions you‘re watching, winning and losing as well as how many pre-auction and pending domains you‘re watching and the total number of domains in your portfolio.

With a glance you can see your current portfolio position and an overview of traffic to the websites you have developed with Protrada.

The right hand column lists the domains you are watching that are ending within 24 hours and the daily domain bargains in real time.

In the Exchange you can start your search for undervalued aftermarket domains.

First select the type of auction you prefer; Expiring, Pre-Auction, Auction, Buy it Now or Premium.

Now use the drop down menus to select one of your pre-defined Filters and how far into the future the auction end time should be.

Use the column filters to further refine your search by entering a value using the equal to (=), greater than (>) or less than (<) modifiers and clicking Apply Filters Now. Then click on the column header to sort by that column. Protrada offers 23 search criteria to make finding the domains you want simple and fast.

If you have certain search criteria you use constantly create a Filter to save even more time. Whenever you login to Protrada all domains that meet your criteria will be instantly available for you to review.

When you find domains you want to consider acquiring add them to your Watchlist by clicking the Eye icon next to the domain. If you find a domain you want right now, click the icon in the Shopping Cart column. Depending on how the domain is being offered you can Buy it Now, Make Offer, Bid On It or Backorder.

Bid Manager is a technology that is developed by Protrada and gives its members an edge when bidding on domains in the various marketplaces. As auctions end around the clock Bid Manager will work when you sleep to place your bid. Set your maximum bid and Bid Manager will bid just enough to win the auction in the final minutes. This saves you hours sitting at your computer and prevents your bids from drawing the attention of other domain buyers - fewer potential buyers means lower prices.

Bid Manager is automatically activated when you place a bid in Protrada so if you're bidding on one or one thousand domains the power of Bid Manager will be working for you.

After analyzing, searching, sorting and filtering domains in the Exchange, your Watchlist is like a corral where you can keep a close eye on the domains you are really interested in buying. No matter if they are Pre-auction, Auction or Buy It Now, you can start bidding in an auction, make an offer or buy it outright from within the Watchlist.

Bidding in Protrada can be done using Bid Manager technology. Bid Manager automatically places your bid in the final minutes of an auction to help you win more auctions at lower prices.

The History tab shows a complete record of all domain auctions you have participated in along with stats showing how many bids were made and the final winning bid.

The Live Trading Floor shows, in real time, the status of domains you are bidding on. As a domain you are bidding on goes above your highest bid it will move to the Losing column. You can then raise your maximum bid, directly from the Trading Floor, and watch it move back into the Winning column, if you become the highest bidder. All the domains you are watching that end within 24 hours appear in the Watching column.

Remember, if utilized, the Protrada Bid Manager only sends your bid to the auction house in the final minutes of an auction to ensure you pay the best possible price.

Quickly and easily review all the domains you have acquired through Protrada or directly imported. The four sections of the Portfolio screen are Manage, Preview, Selling and Performance.

Use the Manage section to search, filter and sort all the domains you have imported or won on Protrada. You can also click the Wrench Menu icon to start the development process using Protrada's Semantic Website development platform.

When your website is ready for publishing it will appear under the Preview tab. Simply review the full size website then click Publish. You can also randomize the site if you want to change the look and style.

Use the Selling section to select the domains you want to sell and monitor their progress.

The Performance tab shows you how each of your developed domains are performing across traffic and revenue through advertising, affiliate and community interactions. Review the performance and make the necessary changes to increase revenue.

Easily see how your entire portfolio of developed domains is performing against traffic and revenue. See an estimated value of your portfolio of developed and undeveloped domains. These reports will give you the information you need to make changes and improvements that are needed to your websites in order to maximize your return.
