Your platforms are good; Epik platforms are good; WhyPark are outstanding! You asked: "Can somebody please tell me one thing that Epik or this “platform” . . . has succeeded in or positives brought to the domain industry?" The most recent report on my domains with Epik shows a total of: $8.46/week for seven sites, including the de-listed one. I had 8 sites, and sold one off. It's nothing, and I'm noone, but it gives me hope. I'm on my way! It works out to $36.66/month. Most of the seven were only launched last month, so they need to get going, but one took off pretty well anyway. This is what it is: your price is good - and you're on my list to try! - but it will be a while, because the threshhold of $400.00 is high - even higher than Epik's threshhold of $250.00! Remember, we spoke after I saw your ad for a special on $100.00/domain. Then you made me understand that the minimum order is four domains at a time. I appeciate the time you spent, and I still want to sign up with WannaDevelop! Let me regroup, because right now, I don't have even $100.00 to spend! Either with you or Epik or WhyPark or the others, the success depends on posting original content. I am leaning on Epik to request original content from its clients, as I have sent original content for the landing page and tab blurbs for the delisted site first, ThickFoam.com, then the rest. Best wishes! Louise :) Hi @ Mike,

It’s all good. Your platforms are good; Epik platforms are good; WhyPark are outstanding! You asked:

“Can somebody please tell me one thing that Epik or this “platform” . . . has succeeded in or positives brought to the domain industry?”

This is what it is: your price is good – and you’re on my list to try! – but it will be a while, because the threshhold of $400.00 is high – even higher than Epik’s threshhold of $250.00!

Simple as that. Epik catches dropped domains or acquires them by paying $$$ or epikbucks or exchange of service... They then mass develop these sites on their "platform" Andrew doesn't seem to get that or simply ignoring the facts... ? You decide.... :) Oh and anybody who doesn’t consider Epik to be a “mass development” service or company or whatever they call themselves is RETARTED. Simple as that.

Even though you don't consider Epik's product to be on the same level as yours, you are competing for the same types of customers, correct? Andrew basically said the industry should support the efforts of mass developers as a whole, at least that's what I got from it.
