    Regretably, I have to put my forum http://www.theproductforum.com up for sale.

    TPF has gone from strength to strength but recently as I have less time, I have been looking at other projects and ideas that are less time consuming. So for this reason, I am now going to put the forum up for sale.

    It is less than 6 months old with nearly 11,000 posts and over 400 members. Even without serious promotion recently the forum has been getting around 80-100 UVs a day mainly from Search Engines.

    We have had additional work done to the vBulletin forum also, adding a media library and other features which have proven popular.

    Substantial SEO work has been done over the past few weeks which should allow the new owner to driver the forum forward and eventually monetise it (we have a premium membership which we gave away to a few members, which costs 99c a month)

    You will own the domain, the forum, the vB license and the vBseo license (itself costing over $100)

    I do ask that the new owner has a genuine interest in technology and consumer electronics as I would love to see the forum flourish in the future.

    I have put around $1000 into the forum since it's inception and am willing to listen to offers, so please reply with any questions you may have or PM if you wish.

    How much revenue did you make from that forum?

    Why there is less activity and daily posts are decaying?

    I did not try and monetize it, that would be up to whoever chooses to buy it. The forum is currently less active because I do not have the time to promote it like I was able to in the past.
