    Site: www.TabMail.org
    Starting price: $100
    Auction end date: Friday, July 6, 2007

    This is an fairly unique item for sale, so I don't really know how to price it. I'll start the auction at $100 and we'll see what happens.

    Back in 2005, I thought it would be neat to offer an e-mail service to go with the collection of guitar tab sites that I had. I've since sold the guitar sites, but kept the e-mail service.

    The service is run through everyone.net, who offer this kind of thing. I've not attempted to monetize it, so I don't know how that would go. You can probably make estimations based on the daily pageviews I mentioned above. You can only insert a single 468x60 ad with everyone.net, but you also get paid if users upgrade to one of their paid services.

    The monthly cost is essentially free. I host the landing page on my server and then point the MX records to everyone.net. They offer the service for free. Figure a couple bucks for hosting, but that's about it.

    Traffic tends to run as follows:

    - On the landing page, it gets about 10-40 visits a day (June 2007 stats).
    - The reports on the actual e-mail service are much higher. I imagine many folks just bookmark their actual account, rather than going back to the main page every time. The June, 2007 total hits, according to everyone.net:

    27 1433
    28 2260
    29 2280
    30 1191

    The main site currently has no PageRank, but there's a reason. I sold my guitar tab sites last year, and those were what drove the PR. It usually was in the 4-5 range. After I sold the sites, the new owners obviously removed the links to this site.

    If I'm missing any information, please let me know. Thanks!

    And any other cost for maintaining the site?

    thanks
