Selling Website

    Hi ..

    First of all, let me say that this website will not be sold until I got a really good offer that I think, will compensate the efforts made to build it (more than one year of coding and maintaining ..). Otherwise, I prefer abandoning it or giving it to a friend without selling.

    That's why there is no bin price or a reserve price.

    (Offers via pm are accepted also)

    knowledgeable webmasters will know the power of this website and its potential, so I'll keep it short, and let you ask the questions you want.

    starting bid, 300$ is what I spent, domain, hosting, buying articles.

    The website is more than one year old, PR3, some PR4 inner pages, backlinks from established and high PR websites ..

    The forum is just added, so, that's why there isn't a good activity ..

    In short, if you want to own an authority website, this is the chance, don't miss it ..

    Waiting for questions.

    PS: why I'm selling? no time (real life job is taking all my time, and I have two niche websites that are easier to maintain ) ..

    Great job on the site looks great, I'm going to do some research on it, and maybe put a bid in.

    Is it a unqiue design?

    Yes.

    I coded every page, xHTML/Css, unique meta description and keywords in every category and subcategory ..

    There is also the design of the sites network ..
    youtips.net/youtips-sites.php

    all based on the arrastheme demo here
    http://demo.arrastheme.com/

    but you can see the difference between the original theme and the 14 webistes modifications ..

    the forum (smf) theme is also modified by me

    Read the previous reply about design ..

    I'll not discuss revenue in here .. 10$ per month from adsense and the placement weren't optimized (as it is now) ..

    So it's not about revenue, in the good hands, it will become a traffic website and you can imagine the profits you can make (you can create ebooks and sell them, you can make a resource store, you have the sites network, you can make thousands of dollars using it with affiliate programs, the registration for writers must be paid etc etc etc ................. ) ..

    Again, it's not the revenue that I'm selling here .. I'm selling a huge website .. I'm selling my work on it.

    Facebook yes (what's the big deal? there only few members ..), the twitter is my friend account, I can't give it .. I'll give this one and you can place it instead
    http://twitter.com/handy_hints


    links on footer, these are partners, friends .. they link to us with their PR5 and above websites ..

    oh woops sleep deprivation
    lol yeah mine is 3yrs old I kept it and recently relaunched
    the script cost over $250 $4000 spent on advertising alone site owes me about 6k and couldnt get $500 for it and I see useless crap get sold on dp quite often guess no one wants credit based safelists :p

    even with keywords in top ten of google go figure and dont bother paying flipper tried there waste of money IMHO since they moved not as much activity.

    Personally, I didn't spend money on advertising .. I got visitors from Google for free !


    And the script running a part of the website (the core) was given for me for free from the creator, and he is selling it now for more than 100$ (I forgot to mention that :) should I add 100$ to the price? :p)

    As I told you before, if there is no one to buy, I doesn't matter ..

    Nice site is, I had a quick look and it seems most the content is free for all articles. Is their any unique content?
