Selling Established Anime Niche Site

There you are speculating and making negative proclamations again. I did provide a little traffic info. It just wasn't with Google analytics which I didn't install on the site (it is not obligatory to do so, by the way). It is against Google's terms of service to share Adsense stats and they can and do punish anyone who does it, sometimes by banning their account. Anyway, even if it was a new site with no traffic, it would still be a good deal. It's weird how you parachute in from Buenos Aires or wherever and start making judgments and proclamations as if you own the place.

 

I'm a potential buyer who's come across a lot of "used car salespeople" on this, and hence am raising my suspicions. If you have the data to address those suspicions then there is no issue.

 

I am not going to spend my time trying to disprove a negative and certainly won't waste more time addressing your unfounded and false suspicions yet again.

 

I created a new blog post just with my recent experiences on digital point and Flippa in mind: Site “flipping” – a world of used car salesmen and shady dealings

Enjoy!

 

Freedom of expression is a great thing, even when whining or spewing out ignorant hogwash. Speaking of ignorance, I think you're bigoted to use the term "used car salesmen" like it means shyster. There is nothing wrong with selling used cars. What do you think people should do with used cars -- dump them in landfills? As I said, I've got good feedback score from everyone who has done business with me here buying websites, and have gotten reports from them that sites they purchased from me have performed well for them. They were also exercising freedom of expression in giving me positive feedback score. You have no feedback score, yet come here like you can be a dictator making proclamations and trying to impose your prejudices, judgments, and paranoia on everybody else.

 

Hmm, I stand corrected, so I've changed it to "dodgy" used car salesmen, since they're not all dodgy, you're right there.

And due diligence does not equal paranoia, just smart business.

Cheers!

 

Negative speculation and unfounded accusations are not "due diligence." It is sabotage.

 

Asking legitimate questions and getting the runaround is suspicious. You certainly seemed more put out by my questions than concerned about answering them from the get go.

 

Nothing is suspicious. I was upfront and honest from the get-go, though you keep suggesting otherwise.. You kept on harping about stuff that I never even featured as selling points. The site does get traffic, has a good history, is an old domain name, has had its ups and downs, and now is on an upswing. I was offering a good deal. It'd be a good deal if I was just selling the domain name alone. I don't know why you keep on reappearing to give me a hard time, yet not actually making a point.

 

Well since I'm not Argentinian it wouldn't be that... you just avoided providing the info I asked for. And I'm sorry, but in my opinion anyone selling sites and not having GA installed are trying to hide something, much like a car seller tries to hide any past accidents. Yes, it's my opinion, which I'm allowed to hold as much as anyone is. If there is another way to show the breakdown of all traffic as comprehensively as GA then great, but I don't think there is, hence won't touch a site that doesn't have that info if traffic if an important factor in its value.

 

There's raw data from Webalizer. I did use Google analytics for other sites I sold here, using DPs system, and traffic dropped radically shortly thereafter. Also, I'm tired of Google permeating everything and am diversifying away from it. At this point, I'm thinking fine, I'll work in bringing more traffic to the site, let it generate money, then sell it for a really high price on Flippa and not offer this great deal here any more. I'm busy with a toddler and other projects and thought I'd offer a nice deal, letting someone else take the reins at a nice price and all I get is buyers who back out and you giving me grief for a crime that didn't take place anywhere except your imagination.

 

Let me ask you a question: Do any people come onto this site, Flippa and similar, and try to get an exorbitant price for their site through questionable data & info?

If you answer yes to that, then even if you're 100% honest, if you don't provide the verifiable data that proves that, how is anyone supposed to know that for sure? It is a little like selling a used car, do you buy from the man who says "Trust me, it runs like a dream", or the man who provides a full, verifiable mechanical inspection?

That's all it boils down to. I hope your toddler keeps well.

 

I didn't post any questionable data or info. You're making bogus comparisons and making it more complicated than it is. Anyone can go to the site and see how it runs. It is what I said it is. You're asking for mountains of data to support grandiose claims that I never made. I will add a tracking system to it since I'll be asking for a much higher price in the future. Anyone can buy an expired domain with keywords and history, then go to a freelance site for quotes on original design for it, original contents, with premium plugins added...then come back here and say if my offer was a rip-off.
