Selling MyUsernameGenerator.com - 1st in Google - Over 1800 Visitors Daily

    Website: My Username Generator

    [​IMG]

    I decided to sell a custom coded username generator website. Username generation is based on its algorithm and it does not contain any word list. So most usernames that appear are actually unique.

    Website ranks first for "username generator" in Google and it receives over 1800 daily visitors.

    My Username Generator has been featured on many sites, here are few but you can Google for more.
    http://socialpuma.com/social-networking/twitter-name-generator/
    http://www.killerstartups.com/Web-App-Tools/myusernamegenerator-com-have-a-cool-username
    http://www.feedmyapp.com/p/a/my-username-generator-not-all-good-usernames-are-taken/16037
    http://www.makeuseof.com/dir/myusernamegenerator-generate-unique-username/
    http://www.kabytes.com/aplicaciones-online/generador-de-nombres-de-usuarios/

    About revenue model: There could be an option implant system that would limit guest visitors to generate unlimited usernames and allow premium members to generate bulk usernames and even export them if they want to.

    Update (10/2/2013): there is currently Adsense running, which made me over 500€ in the last month.

    I won't deal with anyone who has less than 5 postive iTraders. Thank you.

    PS: as a bonus, new owner will also get a domain GenerateUsername.com for free.

    You probably didn't read my first post.

    I mentioned there are currently no ads displaying.

    i did read that. I didn't ask if there are any ads displaying. I asked if you are making any money.

    and one more question: how did you evaluate your website if you are making no money??

    How did you value Twitter, they had no ads for more than a year.

    I am not comparing site with Twitter or Facebook, but it's a start-up site getting nice amount of traffic and you don't need to add fresh content to it.

    Then again, I had Adsense running on it for couple of months and it was about 4-5€ daily, and if we calculate you get at least 150€ per a month from it.

    Please, I am not trying to sound mean, but after all those years I did learn how to set a price.

    I hope you get my point.

    I get your point. Unless you post some fresh adsense stats, I doubt people will pay 2500$ for the potential of this website. I know I won't

    cheers

    If anyone else wants to hijack this thread, is very welcome.

    I don't mind hearing opinions, but making comments with no value are pretty much useless.

    Just make sure you won't get angry when post-counters jump in your thread.

    About 70% of traffic comes from search engines.

    Avoid thrashing people's thread. Its up to the owner to post how much he wants for his sites. The site is coded well, unique, and has traffic. Don't you even realise how much does that costs? I sold a site before with 0 rev claim at Flippa for high $xxxx with no problem but with a well constructed idea and quality site.
    If you don't want to bid or buy don't comment next time.

    @OP - report the posts next time, it should be removed pretty quickly.

    LOL. Are you serious? Really, are you? If he wants to sell the website, he should provide all the information asked by potential buyers, like me.

    Are you sure you sold a website at flippa? you don't seem to know much about this, judging from your useless post.

    Anyway, I didn't trash his thread. I was interested in the website.

    You shouldn't post in this thread, you are not interested in buying it, but being a smart ass. Who is trashing this thread, me or you?

    I am prepared to provide any information that is requested by a potential buyer.

    But, as we all know, some people only collect information, some collect posts, some ruin threads, some ask unrelated questions, and some are really interested in buying stuff.

    Those who were interested have already sent me a private message, regarding this site and they got all information that is needed.

    I am really an easy person to get along with, but don't expect me to be naive.

    So, if anyone needs additional details on this website, feel free to contact me.

    Guys, please don't make war here :)

    I have somehow missed your comment.
    Sorry, this is final price and I am not papered to reduce it. I rather keep site for myself.

    This is a nice site with a basic function. I will offer $200.00.

    It saves coding a similar site.

    Sure, I accept your offer of 200USD.

    Please send it to my Paypal address, but make sure you multiply this amount by x20 before you do ;)

    BigOne, would you mind updating the screenshot so it shows the stats for a longer period of time than two days?
