Selling NBA forums

Just acquired this forum just before easter. Still didnt have any time to promote it yet. Looking for some serious offers.

site: http://www.kingsofthecourt.com

No revenue yet as no ads is placed on the forum.

site received 200-500 daily visits which i think it should be 100+ uniques.


Not indexed by google as this is quite a new site. Received Googlebot activity though. You got everything in the site. Referral stats revealed some referral from tutorial sites as it is also a graphic tutorual (sig/wallpaper design) site. Believe me, the talent of the members in the forums is great. You can see the skins of the site and forums. And you will be amazed by the sigs of each members. This is also part of the reason i bought this site: the great graphical talent of members.

The domain is with godaddy.com and the hosting is $7 a month with a small company.


Stats:

members:575
posts:58512
most user online: april 06 (which means that the forum is active and it's not dead)






Is this an auction: Yes

Starting bid: $500 (i do have a reserve in mind)

BIN: will post later

End date: will post later


Thanks for looking! Have a nice day!

 

I'm surprised at the low visitors...thought you would get more than that?

 

hmm. I consider the visitors number is normal?
And the admin groups are very active, mostly have 1000+ posts

 

The site loads really slow and right now the forum shows a mysql error so I can't see it.

 

It was quick for me, and I saw the forums. Very nice site!

 

How much did you pay for the design?

 

Nice site ...

 

hmm. is it? the site loads fine for me.
I didnt know how much did the previous owner pay for the skin.

 

site is also listed for sale at sitepoint

 

Looks like the main site is based around basketball graphics and design which the owner would need to posess or pay someone to keep up.

Have you already gotten a $500 bid yet?

 

no bid received yet.

As far as i know, the basketball graphics come from the forum member.

That is they will produce and exchange opinions about their creativity and post the graphics on the wallpapaer section.

You do not need to posses or pay someone to keep them up. It's all coming from the forum members as long as they are still there.

 

could you please fill in the blanks (reserve / BIN) ?

 

I didnt want to set a BIN yet, as i do not know how the bidding will go. It is not good for everyone if i set a BIN which is too low or unrealistically too high.

Will test the water and see how it goes before i set the BIN. Frankly, i wouldnt let the site go under $750. Considering the skinning and the graphics on the site, the site is definately worth more than the starting bid.

 

Has anyone bidded?

 

Nope as of now

 

first bid of $500 received at sitepoint.

 

why are yo selling it so soon? no time, this is the only reason?

 

such a new site with almost 60k posts in the forums?
and only a few hundred visitors a day ? That's a bit strange....

but none the less very nice layout, hope you sell it.

 

were these posts imported from an old forum?

 

Nice looking site.

If I were smarter, I would sell my Lakers playoff tickets and buy your site.
