Sedo releases the ‘Complete Guide to the New Sedo.com interface’

On Monday, as we announced, Sedo released their newly redesigned web platform – a true masterpiece of attractive female clipart photomontage, sporting a vastly altered user interface that presents a Gordian knot challenge to the unsuspecting domainer.

These changes were received with mixed emotions from the community of domainers, which generally do not take in change particularly well.

“Jesus, I visited Sedo on Monday and almost had a heart attack. I could not find my way around the blue section, it’s so unfamiliar”, said domainer Nate Friske from Holland. “And those women in the photos, are they really Sedo employees?”

Others liked the change, particularly after months of viewing the same boring green colors and non-graphical templates of the old Sedo web site.

“Well, we know that Germans have a strict eye for design, just like with architecture and the new interface is a breath of fresh air. I spend several hours daily day-dreaming about the guy in the ‘Park Domains’ section”, said Elisa Horner, a single domainer mom from Kentucky. “I think I’d want to park all my domains at Sedo for a hunk like that”, she added giggling.

It seems that Sedo has been watching the reaction of domainers since Monday’s launch. Today, they announced the ‘Complete Guide to the New Sedo.com interface‘ – a comprehensive guide that allows visitors that were accustomed to the old design to find their way around.

The guide is presented below – a DomainGang exclusive!

  3. Lucius "Guns" Fabrice says:

    Sedo should do a Holiday Calendar edition 😀

  4. Richard says:

    Hey yous guys, if you bookmark Petra you can login straight to dnmanagement! I’m glad you posted this complete guide, I could not find it on the new Sedo 😕

  5. Lucius "Guns" Fabrice says:

    Sedo should probably make this guide into a PDF and email it to all their customers as well 😀

  6. Rémy says:

    Not bad, Lucius ! I can indeed recognize most of my former colleagues. Congrats to all of them who made it through the casting, especially Francine DeLacroix who manages the horrible transfers between French registrars.

  7. Genie says:

    Genius post. I was wondering myself whether they all worked for Sedo. It’s good to find out they do.

    Looks like those Sedo-lovers at NameDrive have tried to copy them by showing pics of their employees in their advent calendar too. http://www.namedrive.com/calendar?lang=en

    Seems they employ animals as well as people over there. And not nearly enough girls…

    Glad I stumbled on this site. First quality domaining laugh in ages.

  8. Ben Dover says:

    Every time I see my dog licking his ass, I tell him “quick licking your Sedo”. 😀

  9. Daniel Klotz says:

    I really like this one, but let me assure you, some of the guys and gals working at Sedo are hotter than that. And our names aren’t as clichee as displayed.

    Thanks for the entertaining read!

    Daniel Klotz,

    Erm… just one minor correction. Francine DeLacroix is not Belgian, there’s only one Belgian working at Sedo and that’s me 🙂

    I do not wear sassy lingerie but as a Belgian I like beer a lot (http://belgianstyle.com/)
