    You are bidding maybe on one of the most famous paid forum posting companies on the market.

    ForumBoosting.com is up since November 2005, and since then it gained worldwide reputation for being one of the most effective services to boost up a forum community, with a quality service at an affordable price.

    It is now a PR6, with a customer base of more than 1000 entries and a well developed internal forum community. Press releases, magazines, websites were the ones referring our service, and word of mouth did the rest. Lots of advertisement were done here on Sitepoint, so you can see our company history from the ads we put on there.


    Question: Why you are selling then?
    I started forumboosting when I was studying for my bachelors degree. Now I have graduated, and I am studying for a masters degree. Hence, the time I had to manage ForumBoosting is slowly reducing. On the other hand, it is a real pity to stop operations. I'd prefer to sell the company to someone willing to work on it, and take the best of its real value.

    Value inside ForumBoosting
    There is lots of improvement margins in ForumBoosting. There is a database with hundreds of customers with which make email marketing of paid posting services, there is a reputation that was built in one year, and the opportunity to improve the service. I never tried marketing on old customers, so this is a huge advantage for the one that will do some data mining. All technical details will be discussed with the buyer, and I will give him all the tips and tricks to improve ForumBoosting and multiply its value by 1000. As said, I can not do this because it will require lots of time and dedication. But it's surely worth it!!

    Moreover there are many existing facilities that are included in the sale:
    - a shopping cart system
    - a ticket-based help desk + live support chat
    - a flexible live chat on our forums, flash based
    - phpbb forum with 2,700 registered members and an existing community
    - a PR6 company website with a 1 year old domain name
    - existing customers list for email marketing


    Sale terms and conditions
    As said the main reason on why I am selling is that I won't have the time anymore to manage ForumBoosting. For this same reason, I did not put any advertisement (I used to do lots here on Sitepoint, and other few places), because I could not manage new orders anymore (I am just taking some from recurring customers, and only if I can follow them).

    I will pay the posters up to the date I will sell the site, but after that you should take care of this.

    Details will be given once the sale is finalized. The buyer will have the right to visit our staff forums and view paypal past payment proofs of income, and will be able to ask any question regarding the sale. I will also help with tips and trick and a mentoring period of 2-3 days. However, once the sale is finalized the buyer will have to take in charge of all the aspect of the site operations.

    Feel free to ask for any further question :)

    Are you seeking a flat out offer for this business, or is this an auction? It's a little hard to make an offer without some profit figures, can those be provided via PM? Will interested parties have access to proof of profit before making an offer?

    Thanks very much

    Hello,
    this is an auction currently running at Sitepoint, with a BIN :)

    Regarding profit figures, as said I can provide past screenshots only, because I haven't advertised the service lately due to lack of time from my part. I can say however that I have a work pending acceptation from my part, for $600. You can reach $2k/month on top periods, and you can do even more if you do mail marketing with our current customers list (more than 1000 addresses up to date).

    Thanks!
