    Think Tutorial was Featured both nationally and internationally for its educational prowess.

    The website is set up for international reach and is pre-translated in over (5) major languages.

    Overhead:

    $10/mo: Hosting with Dreamhost.com (supported successfully many spike in traffic coming from digg.com, reddit.com, etc.)
    ~$200/mo: Write and publish tutorials, that's if you want ~50 tutorials/week.
    $0/mo: Advertising: Yep, we never spent a single penny on advertisement. All traffic is organic. Our tutorials are free to access.
    Reason for Sale:

    One of Prestance Group's venture is gaining a LOT of traction which require us to dedicate full focus and time on it.

    Strategies to Monetize:

    Advertising: You could maximize the ad revenue by adding more ads on the site, do A/B Testing, etc.
    Partner with Video Tutorial Firms and Sell their "Premium Video Tutorials".
    (Already have contacts in place with firms open to this strategy)
    Sell CD's of tutorials for specific programs.
    Premium Tutorials: There are millions of tech startup out there. Propose a fee to do series of tutorials (5-10) for their iPhone, Android, Web apps. This could be a great way to introduce their apps to market via tutorials by targeting hundreds of thousands of users that wouldn't otherwise have known about their app.
    And many more
    We continue to forecast growth in the upcoming months.

    Here are 9 reasons why you should consider buying ThinkTutorial.com:

    1. SEARCH ENGINES LOVE THINKTUTORIAL: Search Engines purpose is to help you find exactly what you are looking for and do so as quickly as possible. That’s where ThinkTutorial’s magics intervene: We provide high quality content that help search engines help you find what you are looking for. That’s exactly why more than 50% of our traffic comes from Search Engine. In fact, since Google Panda algorithm upgrade, our site's traffic exploded. The main reason is why have 100% original content AND NO duplicate! We even have our own bang! (!thinktutorial) on DuckDuckGo.com (http://duckduckgo.com/bang.html).

    2. ORIGINAL CONTENT: Every single word, screenshot, you name it, is done by ThinkTutorial. We have a great control over our content.

    3. IT'S ALL ABOUT MAKING USERS GAIN TIME: ThinkTutorial's focus is to answer your query (the one you did via a Search Engine). Our goal is to serve you with the right answer, because your time is as valuable as ours. At work, school, google us from wherever you are, and you will find the answer you are looking for, quickly and efficiently.

    4. WE RESPECT AND LOVE OUR USERS: No annoying/intrusive pop-up blocking you or whatever else. Whatever you don’t like, we don’t like it either! That's why we keep growing and users recommend our site to their mom, dad, family members and colleague at work. You may even wake up one day and start getting hit with thousands of visits because ThinkTutorial.com was just randomly featured on a ... Peruvian TV program! (That happened to us on a random Sunday). The point is: People finds ThinkTutorial.com on their own and LOVE the site.

    5. WE ARE THE TECH INFORMATION CENTER: Every been lost in an Airport? Happened to the best of us. Thankfully there is an “Information Center” you can to and find your way back. Well, online, where do you go when you are lost or looking for something? Google! And we at ThinkTutorial respect Google’s mission to organize “world‘s information and make it universally accessible and useful”. In a way, our mission is to support Google show the best answer to technical questions people might query. We are heading to be a central point for Tech Education by providing a once-and-for-all free and accessible guide to technology.

    6. THE POTENTIAL - WE DIDN'T EVEN TACKLE 1% OF THE MARKET POTENTIAL: Education is huge. And education online is even bigger. We have hundreds of schools, teachers, libraries, school districts linking to our site and again, we did not spend a penny in advertising. Just word to mouth. People love free QUALITY content. And that's what we are.

    7. WE ARE SET FOR INTERNATIONAL GROWTH: Our most popular tutorials are already translated into Portuguese, Spanish and German and French. Up to you to add more! We used real human to translate those tutorials, not google translate.

    8. YOU WILL INHERIT A PRODUCT RAISED WITH LOVE AND PASSION: There is a lot of hard work that has been put in and still is being put into the website. A lot is going on in the backstage! ThinkTutorial’s team have been diligently adding 50 new tutorials weekly. On top of that, we have translators that translate 50 tutorials a week, a combined 200 tutorials is published weekly. The translation team still didn’t catch up with the +1000 tutorials we already released in English, but it’s getting there. Our bottom line is to make sure you, the user, find the response you were looking for, as fast as possible.

    9. LEARNING IS A UNIVERSAL ABILITY: THINKTUTORIAL.COM IS HERE FOR THE LONG RUN: I will conclude with one of my favorite quote, which is "No one knows it all". We broke a huge taboo about our approach to computers with this product. There is NO shame in not knowing how to use Word, Excel, etc. We've all been there. That's why, in our ever changing society, we all need to have one place dedicated to provide us with the knowledge we need to succeed. Computer softwares and apps are tools to (supposedly) make us more efficient. In perfect symbioses with our quickly paced lives, ThinkTutorial.com breaks it down to the basics, quickly and simply. "No one knows it all".

    How much are you selling for and how do I bid for your site? There is no bidding or bin button in your auction.

    I see that there are adsense ads on your site. How much are you making from adsense?

    Hi Aion,

    I apologize but since it's against Google AdSense policy to provide those numbers publicly, I unfortunately cannot disclose those here.

    All I can say, is that it covers our overhead every month.

    Thanks!

    Hi Calbert!

    Thanks for the message. As previously stated, we easily cover our overhead. We only have 2-3 ads running simultaneously. That could be increased. We also are qualified through BuySellAds.com which allow us to get extra revenues with tweets.

    Hi Tox! Thanks for the compliment ;) Yes we do them all ourselves. It costs us about $200 monthly to get ~50 per week.

    We basically research trends on a weekly basis and determine every Saturday which tutorials should be posted the following week.

    Hello Everyone!

    The auction ended earlier today. I don't see how to extend the auction time beside reposting the bid.
    We have a lot of interest for this venture and we are moving forward with the sale, all serious buyers please contact me by PM with your offer and contact information.

    Thank you all for your participation!
