The survey system is supposed to block that, but isn't 100% perfect. “Do we know if people voted more than once?”

The survey system is supposed to block that, but isn’t 100% perfect.

Respondents are self selected. Domain parking companies that focus on big accounts will get fewer votes. Consider Skenzo, which signs up maybe one big whale every month. Since so few people use it, very few will vote. That's part of the reason I added in the "approval rating" measure in this post. It shows what percentage of people using the service rate it as the best. @ Domainer – as I’ve stated many times, the survey is not scientific. Respondents are self selected.

Fabulous.com and Sedo.com are my two favorites though.. For many years. Too bad I don't park much anymore... If I did, it'd be between them two.

Too bad I don’t park much anymore… If I did, it’d be between them two.

But, I was hoping someone else would point it out. The major users of DS probably don't visit DNW. Much less be willing to fill out a survey. I believe the survey was based on a sample of 400 contributors. Do we know if people voted more than once? Did the survey take into consideration the quantity of domains they owned? Maybe, they didn't qualify for a DS acct. I know I didn't answer the survey. I asked another domainer tonight if he did. He didn't. And, he has most of his ??,000 domains with DS. The survey serves a purpose. But, I wouldn't make a financial decision based on it. I know the problem with Andrew’s numbers.
