    About The Forum
    DNTalks was founded in 2003 and has been on the internet since then. DNTalks.com is registered at GoDaddy.com and Expires 2013-12-25. I am looking to sell this forum to find another project
    This forum has been sold 2 time, Once from the original founder to the second owner which has owned it since 2004 til 2013. The second owner did not do much to it except let it die. I purchased this forum from him and have been working on it. It now runs on Xenforo and got rid of most of the spammers. The forum does make some money through Bing Ads but its not enough to really says it makes money.
    The forum is 10 years old and very aged gets traffic and does have some members that post and are some what active.
    Why I am Selling?
    I have never really been able to launch and run a forum but someone that knows more about how to run a community can make this forum really popular and I do not have the time to build the forum anymore.
    This sale does not include the Xenforo license due to me not being able to transfer the license.
    It does come with
    Domain Name
    Twitter account
    Database
    I am looking for someone who can run the community and build it well, if you have the experience and knowledge please PM me. Send me offers via PM.

    What do you base your $1,200 price on? Seems high for a forum that doesn't have much activity or the Xenforo license to transfer.

    If you would like to submit an offer you can, but I am basing it off age and traffic and potential income.

    Agreed, the forum is dead and berried long time ago, and the price does not justify what you give.

    indeed, with 700 uniques showing in awstats for just 10 days, it would probably show just 600 uniques a month in google analytics. that's like 20 people a day, if they come.

    awstats is not as accurate as analytics. it cannot distinguish well in between real visitors or well cloaked bots, proxy usage etc. therefore you should assume much lower traffic than what awstats shows. its worse in webalizer.

    put analytics for a few days and see.

    Hello,

    Im interested in this but not at $500 for a dormant forum.. If you are willing to lower your price to something more reasonable please PM me.
