I have signed up but didnt recive any mail.

 

I am selling my free host dasFree.com. This is my brainchild and I've put a lot of effort and money into this site so I'm looking for serious buyers with some experience in the hosting industry preferred. However, if you don't have any/much experience in web hosting, I will provide guidance.

The current Alexa rank is 151,669 and this is increasing. Currently, the website gets about 400+ UV/day with occasional spikes up to 700. Google Analytics data is attached.

We are currently providing free hosting to 2000+ users and most of our users have low/no traffic. We get about 100+ user account signups every day. Each signup has to provide a reason for wanting hosting and is reviewed before being accepted/rejected.

Revenues

Currently, the only source of revenue is Adsense ads placed on the main page and forum. I have also gotten 2 donations so far. Since I placed ads and submitted the website to a free web host directory in Jan, the site has earned 170 USD. Daily earnings range from 10 cents to 9 dollars. Most daily earnings are around the 2-5 dollar range. However, I have relaunched the website to increase ad earnings and possibly include another revenue stream. This is explained below.

Why massive potential?

This is the second web host I've started. My first one grew very large and peaked at 40,000+ Alexa ranking before I sold it due to academic priorities. That was about 3 years ago. That first host earned about 350 USD/month and had a solid reputation.

As for dasFree, it is only listed on ONE directory and has already been growing rapidly. I have not done any SEO or other promotion of any kind. Hence, you can imagine the earning possibilities if you do some promotion. You can simply hire someone to do some promotional posts around the forum and it will work very well.

Current ad placements are also limited. I only have them on the main page and on the header, footer and postbits of the forum. With some strategic placing, you can increase earnings easily. Also, you can provide affiliate links to paid hosting, domains etc.


Costs are about 130 USD/month including the client area script we're using (Hostbill).

I am selling this site because I am too busy with other priorities right now and am unable to put in the time to propel it to the next level. However, if I don't find any serious buyers that are willing to put in effort, I'd rather not sell it.

What you will get:
- Dedicated server paid up to 4/13
- Hostbill license paid up to 4/13
- 2 domains - dasFree.com and another one of your choice (came with the dedicated server but did not use it)
- Support and guidance from me for a maximum of 1 month

PM me your best offer

 

Im confused about your revenue .

Adsense shot says you have earned $93 in the last 30 days , Lets assume it $100 . But you are spending $130 per month for keeping this service up . So your net profit will be -$30/month Huh ? Please explain it more .

Thanks

 

Yep, the site is currently not profitable. Previously it was profitable because I was only on a VPS which was much cheaper. Only last month did I switch over to the dedicated which is quite cheap considering its specifications

However, as I mentioned, there are many ways you can earn from this site ^^

 

Thanks for your honest reply , Actually I can understand its potential

Please share a proof of your +2 K users . Also let me know the specifications of your current dedicated server . And did you encounter any problem using the previous VPS ?

 

Of course: http://i52.tinypic.com/331ga6e.png

Hmm and it appears that I was wrong, I am hosting 3000+ accounts. Because I switched client area software, it probably didn't import all of the accounts. The client area software says that there are 2000+ accounts. I will look into getting this fixed.

Dedicated server's specs are:

Core 2 Quad Q9300 2.5GHZ 1333FSB (6MB CACHE)
CentOS 5 64 Bit
8 GB DDR2 RAM
5 IP Addresses (3 currently unused)
5TB Bandwidth/Month
250 GB Primary SATA Hard drive
250 GB Secondary SATA Hard drive
Softaculous (Costs 2.50 USD/month)

With the VPS, the amount of users I had just outgrew it and the entire site was really slow. CPU and RAM was never enough. However, there haven't been any problems with the new server. I have also tweaked some settings to optimize it.

Also, I forgot to mention that all support is given via the forum so that users can be more exposed to ads

 

Lets cut the chase. How much are you looking for ?

 

I'm looking ideally for offers 1000 and above but am willing to consider lower ones

 

I think your being over optimistic asking 4 digits for a site that doesn't even have revenue.

 

It does have revenue, just not profits yet. Considering it started only 3 months ago, it's been growing at a considerably quick pace. I can see why you think that the price is high but as I said, it will be worth it once you maximize earnings. Also, I did say ideally I want 1000+ but I am very open to other offers.

 

How much of the server is 3000 users taking up? When would we have to buy a new server, because that would decrease profits substantially.

 

Currently we've only used up 20% of the space allocated to users so I'd say the space is going to last quite a long time. We have 5TB bandwidth so that's way more than enough too.
The number of users signing up is quite consistent and it also depends on how much you approve (to filter out the possible rapidleech users, phishers etc) so I'd say it's going to last at least 10 months at the current rate.

Auction starts at 500 USD and BIN price is only 650 USD or best offer. I have no reserve price!

 

cost $130 per month but revenue only $100?

 

Yep, because we were expanding so quickly, I had to upgrade our old VPS to a dedicated which costs more. Hence, we are currently not profitable but that's mainly because I haven't done much promotion and also I only place few ads on the website. With proper SEO, promotion and ad placement, it will be very profitable.

UPDATE: I am reducing the BIN and starting bid because my schoolwork is increasing by the day and I am looking for a quick sale.

 

hello,

If you would like a quick sale let me know and ill give you $400 TODAY xx

 

Please place a bid and if your price is the highest at the end of the auction then it's yours

 

Not willing to lower the price of the buy it now at all?

 

also can you please tell me how much GB's of Space & GB's of Transfer you use per month now?

and what is the max on your currant hosting plan?
