Namepros yesterday unveiled a new look and some new features. For awhile there have been hints of integration between Namepros and Bodis.com. Matt Wegrzyn owns both platforms and he and Namepros Admin Eric Lyon have rolled out some cool new features as well.
Namepros Member Dave helped put together the new domain sales history tool which looks to rival Namebio as it grows. Dave said the following:
Hi guys,
Just wanted to bring to your attention I am responsible for the
development and population of the sales history tool that Namepros has
introduced just recently.
Please be aware that the tool has 80,000+ sales that were scraped and
pulled in automatically from various sources so you'll have to excuse
the odd few records that may show an inaccurate sale price and/or domain
name, as I'm sure you can all appreciate it's no easy feat to validate
every single one of them.
I will continue to work closely with Namepros to improve the tool and
resolve any accuracy issues, although hopefully these should be few and
far between.
Future sales are pulled in automatically from RSS feeds and other data
sources that have a very solid structure so accuray shouldn't be a
problem in the future.
Let me know what you all think and how you guys would like to see it improved.
Many thanks,
Dave
The site has a full screen look to it now and has plenty of white space. I think many would like to see a darker theme option as some are having problems with the brightness. There will more than likely be more tweaks and some more features added.
I thought someone named Ron owned NamePros…
When did this change ??

Way to much white space. Fonts need to be larger and more bold. Add some color by boxing in “Domain name discussion”, “Domain name marketplace” etc….Very bland. Looks like a cheap forum site in my opinion. Update the logo also. Put DNforum.coms page next to Namepros.coms page and there is no comparison in the look and feel of the site. In looks alone DNforum wins by a huge margin.
I don’t see where the domain sales history tool is located. I am glad to see that they are adding that, though. There is definitely a need for it, as most of the ones available are lacking.
Alan just look at the Domaining Tools tab and its on the dropdown.
