This is really getting tiresome. Making changes to things that won’t help the site at all while ignoring the actual site problems. As my dad used to say, you can only put so much lipstick on a pig because it’s still a pig.
My comment on the blog post which probably won’t be [URL removed]
Horrible decision. bMarketplace is generic. Bonanza is unique. The only reason I can see to change the name is that “Bonanza” has gained a big reputation with fraudulent sellers.
The site has errors constantly with images, SSL, and DNS name servers. There are still references all over the site to “Pay nothing til you sell” and “Zero fees to list” even though that has changed. Traffic is awful because the site’s trust rating has plummeted. There are sellers with tens of thousands of items who haven’t signed in for months. This is what to address before making a name change IMO.
Makes sense about the DNS/SSL issues I wrote about 2 days ago.
