Selling Selling a general chat forum. Great domain + Database!

    Hello,

    I am selling general-chat.com as I have another high traffic forum and I can't give it enough time. Recently, I had messed up the database by installing a plug-in, and I was kept messing with template thinking that it might have caused the issue. I soon realized that the database is bad and I had to recover it with an old database. I lost some members, posts and activity. I am running another great forum and I want to dedicate my time to that forum only. So, I am planning on selling it. I think the domain name is great, Alexa ranking us awesome and has good quantity of backlinks along with good posts! I used to earn $5-10 per month before I messed up database and start giving it less time.

    Again, I am selling domain name and database only.

    Good Luck!

    I am selling the domain and database. Not the template and vBulletin files + license.

    Thanks

    Yes, the contents are unique and none of them are paid.

    Alexa ranking is showing as fake, points to bikepics.com or something, which makes me wonder about the backlinks too

    For a backlink search I didn't come up with anything special, it was mostly on forumpromotion.net or 4webhelp. And google didn't return any at all...

    Are there any better backlinks, or just on those sites? PR returned with a result of 0

    I never said it has a high PR. If you check the details it says PR 0. As I said before, the site was getting good amount of members and posts before I messed up the database. The site was up for a almost a month. I have advertise it in many forums and still has it under my signatures. Forumpromotion was my main source and I had a banner on its homepage for a week or so.

    Hi,
    I can buy this site now for $40. I don't think it is worth more than that since the number of daily visitors is close to 20 per day now.

    Regards,
    Savio

    Sorry, I am not interested in this. The ALEXA ranking is fake. It is the ranking of bikepics.com

    I am placing a report about you on the consumer forum.

    Haha .. I have nothing to do with this alexa thingy. I am not sure what you guys are talking about and how it happened. How in the hell I can point a alexa to another site. It can be their glitch, I am not aware of. And Sav, you are an idiot. What are you gonna report about me? I hacked the alexa and pointed my site to bikepics.com? lol

    Just an FYI, I don't really care about Alexa, it carries no value and its a buggy system anyways. If you are buying my site just for alexa then don't.

    I'd pick up this site but I'm a little short on funds this week :( (going camping, need to save up)
    if this is still around next week, I'll definitely bid on it, that is if no one else has snagged it up yet.

    Good luck with the sale!
