Free Host For Sale, 1,400+ users - 1 day sale.

I've never emailed any of them about any hostgator offers which is what most free hosts do before they sell, they'll email out, make $2-$5k in one hit, post it as their revenue and sell for heaps, I'm not doing that mostly because I don't have the time to email out, or maintain the users anymore, i'm busy with other business interests.

so i'm selling, i want to sell quick, my other business is launching next week and there's heaps of work i need to get done.

the domain is http://www.x8web.com/
there's also http://www.x8forums.com and http://www.x8blogs.com

I've only ever got around to promoting the web, it's currenly doing about 100 signups a day, i've never really monetised it, there's a google banner on the front page that does like $1 a day.

i would have but like i said, i'm sarting a new business in a week with a partner and i'm lagging behind, i cant run this, and some other ventures (which i'll also be selling today) at the same time.

also the funds will help me with advertising money for my new biz, so its a 2 in 1 sale for me, more time and some money for advertising.

included is a full ipanel license, it's all currently on a dual core amd 2800, you can take the server or move it all to your own, i'd suggest your own new server, its growing rapidly.

there's a few more sites doing reviews of the site soon, so the traffic will increase.

like i said, the money is in the list, ifyou email them all you'll make good cash from it, honestly i dont have time, if it dosent sell, i'll spend half a day, do it myself and just close the server down. i'd prefer to see all my work go to some good use though.

24hr auction


----edit

highest offer so far. $400

 

new high bid $450

 

You said 1400 users... 100 sign ups a day?

How many page views through the website(s)?

And you get $1 a day from google adsense?

How much does the current server you run on cost a month and through what company is it?

 

yeah approx 100 a day, i do ban and suspend accounts.

i dont know what all the sites are getting.

adsense is only on the homepage of x8web.com, not on any of the sites etc.

only expenses are the server $140 a month from servstra.com

today 97 signups, days not finished.


i've modified the exim configs, there's no mail spam, i've modified the ftpd configs, max file upload is no more then 4mb, apache configs are also modified, no cgi operates on the server, keeping load to a minimum.

 

Did they change their prices because I dont see any $140 a month packages.

if we were to buy the site now, how many days of hosting remain on the current server? Would we be able to just take over the account with any major moves?

 

dual core AMD, $119 a month plus $20 a month for cpanel.

there's about 3 weeks left in this billing month.

dont know if you can take the whole server over. they arent a massive host, their indian support lacks at times. and their billing and support teams dont talk together :|

i have 2 other servers with them, my next server i think will be with cari.net or something...

 

Well I am just not interested at all if I have to move hundreds of GB of material from server to server :/

 

hahaha well if you do its all automated through cpanel!
and its not hundreds of gig, its only about 20gb.

 

20 is it? Thats not bad...

Current bid still 450?

When does this close? I have to get to work in a few mins.

 

yeah the drive usage is minimal, real ppl dont upload much, only warez takes up lots and they get banned anyway.

Server Load 0.44 (1 cpu) 0.22 (2 cpu)
Memory Used 32.1 % (1gb ram)
Swap Used 6.42 %
Disk sda3 (/) 16 % (160gb drive)

16% of 160 is about 25gb, most of that is linux file system, i'd suggest under 20gb.

 

Current bid still 450?

When does this close? I have to get to work in a few mins.

 

yeah current bid is still 450.

12hrs

 

Any idea on how many pageviews per day over every users site please?

Nick

 

bid withdrew...

 

I have no idea what the status of this is. Let me know. I am still interested but will be sleeping when his auction ends!

 

status is still open, will give it some more hours, i'm just waking up now.

 

What is the current high offer since WunschShrek withdrew his/her bid? It is almost 5am eastern here in the states. I'll be back around 2pm. Hopefully the bidding is still going by then but I realize you said 1 day sale.

 

yeah i'm just waking up for the day now, i'm in a different time zone (5pm here), i'll extend for a few more hours to give the US a chance to catch up.

well as far as i know WunschShrek never had an offer in. i never saw what was there and never got a PM, so higest bid via pm is $477.

 

there seem to be some problems with your server, on the forums people say that they can't FTP files...
