Before anyone lists here - go to their marketplace and do a search for a domain. Notice how incredibly poor (or non-existent) the search functionality is. I'm not sure how anyone is supposed to find a listed name for sale. Until this is updated and enhanced I'd suggest it's a waste of time to list names for sale at Porkbun. One long list of unsearchable names isn't going to get you any buyers imo.

Yes, perhaps Porkbun could comment on whether they are working on an upgrade to their marketplace soon. Seems like an opportunity to step in and try to fill the demand for an effective 7d auction as well.

Exactly. Seems like they added the functionality without testing it from the perspective of a buyer.

So hopefully they will step up to the plate quickly to make an extremely effective, 7-day Porkbun auction for domain sellers!

It sounds like y'all want something similar to our auction page, we'll see what we can do.

The marketplace has been pretty successful in it's current state with our usual customer, e.g. someone looking for a specific domain for their brand or business. It sounds like y'all are thinking of a different buyer that may be looking for established domains to build ad revenue on. We'll see if we can get something that might suit that kind of a persona.

That is not what I'm suggesting. I'm simply saying a customer who is looking for a specific name can't search by keyword. Let's say the customer wants a construction name... they can't filter out .net or .org, can't filter by age, by price, by character length, or anything really. They just get a very long list of names they have to sift through one at a time. I think there should be some type of filter so your customers can find what they seek.

Yes, more filters would likely be very helpful. Hopefully, for each and every marketplace auction, there is serious reassessment going on to see how to make it extremely user-friendly and more appealing.
