Search Results for ‘domain forum’
There are several interesting websites for sale today, so I’ll just make a short summary of each of them.
The first is for sale at SitePoint:
A t-shirt website called crewddewdsshirts.com. It has a monthly revenue of $500+ made by selling shirts, but also has income from shareasale.com and other sites they are affliated with, along with adsense, bidvertiser, adbrite, etc. The website itself is really clutered with all sorts of stuff like links, banners etc. but it still interesting since it makes money and it gives space for improvement.
The second is for sale at SitePoint:
The website feedbomb.com is a blog / feed directory with 25,000 monthly pageviews from ~3,300 unique visitors. The site makes about $33 dollars a month, but I think this could be improved be placing ads on all pages, and by changing the ad formats. One thing to be aware of is that many bloggers don’t like to have their full feeds published on other sites, so I think it would be a good idea to make the site only show 250-350 charaters of each feed item.
The third is for sale at DigitalPoint:
There isn’t much information in the sales thread - not even the URL - but it is a weight loss related blog that makes decent money ~$3000 a month.
The fourth is for sale at sedo:
The website LoveOGram.com is a simple viral website where people can let other people know that they have a crush on them - anonymously. The website has about 3000 - 4000 daily uniques, and I think it could be monetized much better - even though I don’t know how much the owner is making from it.

I honestly believe that there is too many webmaster communities for sale at the moment. There is like a new one up for sale every day. And almost everyone of them are very small with few visitors, members, posts, articles etc.
Why do some people create these, and why is there other ones buying these, when there is already a lot of large and very popular webmaster communities? It is really hard to bring something new to this area, and almost just as hard to create something as good. To succeed in creating a good, large and profitable webmaster community you would have to be blessed with some amazing marketing skills.
I think that the main reason for this, is that most of the people creating websites are into webmastering. So it is the obvious thing for them to create since they know about it. The people buying these communities are probably in the exact same situation.
This is what I found of webmaster communities for sale, by browsing about 10 days back in some forums.
And then there is this thread where someone wants to buy such forums for their userbase - which makes it pretty clear that it is hard to market such a site and get users. But this guy might be on to something - in some cases it is cheaper and easier to buy other sites to merge with your own than through organic growth.
But as stated I believe there is too many of them for sale. But they are certainly not the only kind of sites that there are too many of being for sale. I also see small image hosting and arcade sites for sale almost everyday.

There is a boy band (breeding 5..?) community for sale at Dnforum. The forum is located at www.breeding5.com and seems pretty active. It has about 15,000 monthly uniques and 150,000 monthly pageviews according to seller. There is currently 260,626 posts and 5,245 members.
Almost every forum category has had activity today, and there a lots of threads in which this activity occurs.
It is on auction with a starting bid at $995, but the seller looks for $2,000+. With a $75 monthly adsense revenue this seems a bit high, but I would judge that the adsense is badly implemented, and that there definitely is opportunities for big improvements. Like implemeting more adsense elements - one in between of posts.
Also the indexing in Google and Yahoo is not much, so with a little bit of SEO and link building I guess that you could increase the traffic. That is, if there are searches in this “niche”.
Only thing I would worry about, is potential issues regarding the domain name. I don’t know if this is a real problem, but I recall there beeing some previous cases about using artist names in domains. Heck, I don’t even know what the exact name of the boy band is…

I just stumbled upon a forum website for sale at sedo. I can see that the forum has more than 1 million posts, which is pretty much, and according to the sedo tracker there is ~40,000 monthly uniques doing ~400,000 pageviews.
So when I see that it is for sale for only $2,500 I almost can’t believe it. Shouldn’t it be worth more? In generel I believe it should, but I really can’t judge this, since I don’t understand turkish.

I just spotted a webmaster & domain name forum for sale at NamePros. The forum itself seems pretty dead, but according to the statistics provided by the seller, there is a decent amount of traffic.
The forum is RealDN and it has a pagerank 4. In this month there has been around 13,000 uniques who did ~54,000 pageviews.
The seller wants the bidding to start of at $500, but he has a reserve, and mentions that the right offer will buy immediately. The auction will be for 7 days and seller will post a BIN in a couple of days.
This forum could be a good start to create a community, but remember that there is plenty of webmaster and domain forums already.
There are two things to notice. 1. Theres was a huge drop in traffic in November and December according to the stats. 2. There is a lot of links in the bottom, so the link popularity might be obtained through such link exchanges.

There is a domain name community for sale at Ebay. It is the forum dncommunity.com that is up for auction.
The current bid is $1,125 and the reserve has been met. The auction ends in 9 days, and there has been serveral bidders, so you should expect the price to become higher - especially in the hours just before the auction ends.
The site has some traffic - according to screenshots there was ~65,000 pageviews and ~6,500 uniques in december 2005. The stats for this month shows the same pattern. The traffic has been increasing since may 2005.
There are some activity in the forums, but it is mostly in the “Domains for Sale” forum. The other forums seems a bit quiet.

A new website just went for sale at Sitepoint. It is DropWatch.com which is a service that provides real time stats for expiring domains information for estimating traffic on expired domains.
The website had a revenue of $4193.21 in december 2005, but it is this far the highest revenue obtained. According to the revenue details provided by the seller, there has been a steady increase since january 2005 (the stats don’t go further back). The revenue is generated through member subscriptions, and is based on a monthly fee, so there is a good reason to believe that the revenue will increase further.
The auction starts at $140,000 which is too much, and the BIN is $233,500 which I think is absolutely unreasonable. Imagine what you could build with that much money… But who knows, he might be open for lower offers. Anyway there is definitely a good market for expiring domains, so if this website gets marketed well, there will probably be a very good pay off.

Hip Hop Blogger, hiphopblogger.com is for sale at SitePoint.
According to the seller, there has been 163 posts since the blog was started in March 2005, which seems right according to Google and Yahoo. There are currently revenue generated with AdSense, and the screenshots says it was $18.30 in December. But one thing I noticed was that, according to that screenshot, the amount of pageviews dropped a bit in the middle of the month.
The seller has also posted screenshots with sources of traffic, and it seems good since it is mostly direct traffic, so there is probable loyal readers. The rest is from links ~ 21% and search engines ~ 17%.
The bidding starts at $200, but there is a BIN of $800. I think it is worth the money, for somebody wanting to start a hip hop blog, who doesn’t have all the time in the world to get started.
If somebody buys it, then please fix that redirect from www.hiphopblogger.com to hiphopblogger.com, and make it opposite. All the links is pointing to the domain including www. And also do a little bit of link building - it should not be hard to obtain more traffic from the search engines.
Stats:
Age: 9 months
Pageviews: ~6000 a month
Pages indexed:
- Google: ~70
- Yahoo: ~150
Back links:
- Google (front page): ~316 (for the url with www)
- Yahoo (front page): ~3,380 (for the url with www)
- Yahoo (entire site): ~3,460
