Why am I selling this site?: I I have already sold two of my sites for the same reason recently on this forum., but I need more money for my project. I may sell one more site after this.

Asking Price: Its an auction
Starting Bid: $0.00
Buy It Now (BIN) Price : $3,600.00

Auction will end exactly after 7 days of this post.

Please note I have a reserve price in my mind and I will not sell this site if that price is not met.

If you have any more questions/comments do let me know.
Serious bidders only please.

 

I bid $600.

 

i bid USD$700

 

Just curious if the copyright holders mind their pictures' inclusion in your site? It doesn't look like you list the name or provide a link back to the artist. Since the pictures aren't huge, maybe there's a case for fair use. Somewhat risky without this part cleared up.

Also, what kind of upkeep does your site require?

 

i bid $800 USD - What about the copyright mentioned in last post - Is this an issue - Or have you brought the images from an image bank?

 

My Bid is pending the copyright issue and sale terms (see PM)

 

I notice that you have many interesting keyword such as "dragon tattoos", "red dragon", "black dragon" and "dragon tattoo" under you rstat (http://65.75.145.180/awstats/awstats.pl?config=freedragonpictures.com) but could not found them listed in any major search engine. Could you please advise under which search engine is the keyword listed and thier recpective ranking.

 

site is down for me.

 

Its up for me now - much have been short downtime

 

I'll bid $1500 pending the copyright questions above.

 

Wow jim you got a lot of nice sites. Go lorien gl!

 

I'm interested in matching that bid if my PMs get answered

 

And here I thought my re-raise before the flop would win me the hand easier

 

It might.. i've been waiting since this morning...

 

Sorry for the late reply. Here are some of the concerns raised in PM and here on the board:

Copyright? Do I hold them? No. I don't hold any copyright on the pictures. But I tried to pick pictures 2 years back from domains which were in public domains and some from getting perms from picture owners. But I don't have any copyright on them. I never had any problems in last 2 years with the pictures

Escrow: Yes. We can go for escrow. Both can divide the fee. Term can be 5 to 7 days.

Paid advertising: No, I never did any paid advertising for the site.

Links from my sites: Yes. There are some links from my own sites. They will work as link-exchanged. If you remove mine, I remove yours or vice versa else its beneficial to both.

Site Down: Yes. My host managed.com dataline was down for 24 minutes. Sorry for that.

Work Required for site: Once created 2 yrs back I never touched the site except changing the banners. So as it is, it doesn't need any work. But you can add more dragon related pages as there are a lot of dragon based keywords which are still not targeted on the site.


Keywords in Stats: Sorry. awstats doesn't show which keyword is coming from which search engine, so I cannot answer that.

If you have any more questions do let me know:

As of now the highest bid is $1500.
But one user (jitenagr ) is ready to buy the site at BIN if I agree to his terms "7 day escrow at escrow.com. We will split the escrow fees evenly", which I do agree.

So I am taking it as a final BIN based bid but still waiting for his reply. He still can accept/reject.

 

The BIN price is confirmed by jitenagr.

The site is SOLD. Setting up the escrow.

 

crap!!! and i was just about to bid 1800
