    Iflimits.com

    Members 10,480
    Usually around 20 - 50 online
    New signup's - 10 - 20 daily

    Daily Unique Visitors 300 - 600

    Overview..
    IFLimits is an active free resource site for Invision Power Board (IPB) - It has an enormous stock of free skins and graphics for the IPB. We have a great bunch of non paid staff, which includes skinners etc and they do all the work. They run the forum and I have not interfered as there is no need. New members are signing up daily. There is no advertising as I have done none.

    Income is negligible as I only placed google on there 2 months ago and am not completely happy about the content of the ads they are publishing - has earned around $20 or so. As I am in the UK I cannot use Yahoo ads so I think you would also benefit from doing so. The real benefit to me has been placing my other sites links on there as I get lots of hits from it.

    The genre of the members is 12 - 30 years old. I have also, last week placed some new forum gaming related topics which is bringing a good response.

    Sale includes Invision Board Licence (latest version 2.1.3-4)

    IFLimits is well known amongst the larger Invision Board communities and will continue to grow especially if you could devote some time into it (as I have not done nor can I do so) I can see IFB becoming 20,000 pretty quickly without much expense

    All the staff will stay as they love the place and treat it as a hobby

    If I have missed something, I can answer any questions you may have

    Looking for offers to at least start at $650

    Thanks all

    Ghetto I have had it for around 3 months and I think a new owner could give it more time and bring it on - as you know I have not been around for over a 6 weeks - You know that.

    xoticpt - a bit of a silly comment don't you think?

    We get an average of 10 - 20 signups daily and if you had bothered to read the original thread you would not have had the need to post such stuff. Please do your homework first, it's sort of fundamental.

    So 18 people have signed from here up after reading this thread - hmmmmm
    Give the members of DP a little more credit than that!!

    Ok you have had your say, and I have answered so please do not retaliate and try to ruin my thread and I will thank you for that.


    Thank you

    Guys I have had lots of questions thrown at me by pm so here are some answers.

    Stats taken a couple of hours ago if it helps
    Traffic Stats

    Also here is the referral stats
    Refer Stats
    As you can see the Search engine traffic is great especially Google and increasing.

    Question was also asked about postings. I aqm being perfectly honest when I say I have done absolutely nothing to even encourage postings etc as I have shown no interest apart from paying for a licence for the new IPB version. I have also approached Invision themselves to have our link on their homesite which they have agreed to but that was a month ago and that needs following thru. If that happens then that will certainly increase numbers dramatically.

    In my oppinion I am not doing IFL any justice and I would love someone with a passion to move things along to a great height as the members and staff are a good bunch and dedicated too. There are 3 admins who look after things really well but they do not do marketing which is where you would come in.

    Ok I have already had 3 serious offers - the highest on the table so far is $800

    I will leave it running and set a BIN of $2000

    Torrentguy, if you read the tos, you would see you need 25 posts minimum and 2 weeks membership to post in the for sale threads.

    Please note when post was made 3 days ago we had 10,480 members. We now have 10,536 members - 56 new signups in 3 days so you can see how fast it is growing.

    Please stop offering me silly figures like $5 per week and partnerships etc as I placed it here to sell. I would dearly like to find someone that can look after it as its a great resource.

    Latest concrete offer is $950

    Reduced BIN $1500

    Well done on the sale! Why are there so many people showing bad etiquette by hijacking this guys thread. Not only is it dead out of order, it might affect the sale/cash he gets for the site. Luckily he sold it for his BIN so no harm done. Three red blobs fired.
