Selling ACTIVE Hip Hop/Rap/Music vBulletin forum

Hi there,

I am wanting to sell a Hip Hop/Rap/Music Forum at the domain www.hiphoputopia.com

It runs vBulletin owned license and the sale includes that license which is valid until Feb 24th '10 and proof of license is posted below:



The domain has been banned from adsense, so you will not be able to make money from adsense (when it was up about 3 months ago it was making about $4/day) money is made from selling ads on DP and through websites, you can put other ad network ads on, it has only been banned from adsense.

The site runs itself, I have it running on a VPS and the users on it including moderators and admins run it so I dont do anything really.

The site currently has:

Members: 635
Threads: 11,030
Posts: 195,731

Below is the analytics screenshot for the past month:



And below is analytics screenshot from day 1 to today:



Due to the nature of this sale, I will not be accepting paypal UNLESS you are a reputed member here with alot of itrader and posts and/or have a verified paypal email and a contactable phone number.

I am starting the bidding at $100 and will run the auction until the reserve is met (in which case bidding will last for 24 hours from last bid), or until BIN of $2500 is met.

Any questions just ask as this sale is a must for me as the cash is needed

 

Can you show the keywords for search engine referrals...

 

Okay here you go



Also below is the traffic sources:

 

Is this a pretty tight nit community with the same members online everyday ?

Only reason i ask is because you only have 137 Active members and in the last 24 hours there has been 130 members online ?

 

I'l start it with $100, I just like the design but it need still needs a lot of work..

 

Yes it is a tight nit community it has the same few hundred members on every day and new members joinign in that close circle every week.

And xlsidekicklx - Sorry but I cannot accept your bid as you are new to DP and therefor have no trust or anything. Sorry but I have had way too many bad experiences in the past.

As for the design, it is a free design which we just worked on for a bit but then stopped as the person who was workign with me had other things

 

$100 from rajuthan

 

Okay thanks. Anymore bids or questions about the sale?? Don't forget the sale comes with the owned vbulletin license. Reserve still is not met and the BIN is set to $2,500 as it is open ended as I haven't decided a BIN price just yet.

Also the sale will take place through escrow.com services for protection for both buyer and seller so you can be assured. Buyer is to pay half of the escrow fees

 

Any other interest from others? Site wont sell at $100

 

Where is the website currently hosted at? I notice there are several sudden drops in traffic every now and again, is this due to an unreliable hosting provider? If not, then why are there sudden drops? Also, what is your reserve price?

 

The drop by March was due to moving hosting providers from shared hosting to begin with to a VPS.

Drop by July was moving from 1 VPS provider to another (which I am on currently)

And the drop by September was due to a server issue while I was upgrading PHP which stopped access for about half a day.

I am hosting the site on my VPS which is provided by PhotonVPS which has been VERY reliable, just self maintainance is needed on the server itself.

Reserve price is yet undecided as is the BIN price, I will know once the reserve is met when I am comfortable selling it at that price.

 

$150 from me. Thanks

 

Reserve still not met,

Highest bid is still $150 from Kris.

If you have any questions at all, just ask and I will answer

 

$175 from me

 

$350 from me

 

Okay. Any more interest or questions?? Reserve still not met yet and you can feel free to make an offer by PM if you wish

 

Any more bids/questions/offers?? Reserve still not met

 

Still open guys

 

Im interested the site is not opening?
